It takes so very little to expand now. After turning I neck size only and start shooting. Yes, check your OA...

    Doughnuts

    Jackie Schmidt uses 6mm bullets in his 30BR for fireforming. I used a worn out 22 barrel to do my 30br fire forming barrel. Drill and ream the bore to accept the 30br reamer. Check your reamer specs for your overall length. Trim as needed. I use a stiff load of Bullseye capped with a wax or...

    DYI Scope Repair

    Gene, a few scope folks that I have visited with said it didn't stay around. It is used to purge the water in the air, but didn't hang around for ever.

    DYI Scope Repair

    Yes sir! Ask Jackie about that. All microscopic things looked like rocks and his first fine cross hairs looked like ropes. I think he figured it out. Of course Cecil has been doing the erector tube spring and screw for many many years. Remington did this in the 1960s I believe. Both of my...
