LOL.... and I'm perty dern good at brazing and silver soldering but can I write my name on my thumbnail with a TIG??? nope Dan can

Now that your position is becoming more clear I'm agreeing more and more with your original premise...... the fly in thee oinkment may well be that if you want a true-blue-new state-of-the-art RB/LP/RE or dropper you might have to line out components and wait. But you're getting valuable...

I believe that the only way to get truly good brass is to fireform in on a tigh crush-fit in your own chamber. If Jackie doesn't get back to you and if you're interested in another take.....I've a 2.5-3hr video series in which I "recreate" or attempt to follow Jackie's lead and succeed greatly...

have an opinion.... Jewell In the last two yrs I've tested rather extensively the Hare, Flavio Fare', Bix-N-Andy, Huber, Trigger-Tech/Calvin Elite/Basix/Timney etc etc..... in short I've bought and used EVERY AVAILABLE NEW TRIGGER that'll get down into the ounces "safely" because folks were...

OK.... so this is going to get me in trouble but in for a penny ;) "reputable smiths" is a broad term. There are thousands of reputable men building rifles in this world but blessed few qualified to assemble a competitive Benchrest Rifle. 99.99999% of all the so-called "shooters" on the planet...

Look at Bench Rest Match reports which may be found at the IBS and NBRSA websites. And on here. Look for makers.... as in "'smithed by" or "built by" Buy a 6PPC from a known maker Do not consider any other options....... period. With this PPC you will need fitted dies, They may come with...

Nahhh, 'slugging up' is just as fancy as 'obturates' and more job-specific...... truly lay terms will include "squishes like a grape", widens like a stepped-on kitten" or bulges like a dropped water balloon"..... notice I didn't mention fat women nor airborne pachyderms cuz RACIS'!! I'm trying...

LOL!!! I know what MY Master, Herr Franz Achleithner, husband of renowned engraver Emma Achleithner said.... !@#$%^&!! but it was all in German, and not directed at me so I just looked on, smiled and nodded politely as I carded my file like a gut' liddel bub'chen.....

I did something similar to that in gunsmithing School. One of my instructors was Ferlach trained and he explained as how they had to make a ring on a stick and then file a round ball like a ball bearing such that if you froze the ring on the stick and drop the ball on it would not go through...

WOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKg3GDUuuVE I suck at shottyguns. I've never owned a good one. These guns make me want to take up shotgunning! :) Barrels/blocks/lumps/ribs machined from billet, just Wow

I'm with Butch! :) Differn't strokes an' all that....... as a businessman I can't count the nights I've lain awake because "we've got a problem, we've got to talk" and I go over the job second by second all night only to meet at the site and find out that MY idea of a problem and THE CLIENT'S...

yeahh, times have changed from when we raised our kids..... back when blowing smoke in the baby's ear cured earaches

Thank you Mike, you are right the one I got from you was the smaller thread. I did later find a .900 so's I could test it head-to-head with a Lambert.....and I have a bunch of X47 barrels threaded .900 because I built a bunch of my "3-D Tuners" in .900.... And the Ezell is still my baseline...

I might still have an Ezell with .9X32 I'll check

BTW, only a fraction of a percent of fishermen on this planet have ever experienced even 10lb drag pressure fighting a fish ;)

Thank you for your thoughts re bolt thrust..... let me be clear. I DO NOT intend to shoot these critters at BR pressures!!! I did run the barrel in question up to over (well over) 80,000psi but ONLY to "proof" it. I'm unwilling to waste strain gauges on this project, nor am I going to magnaflux...
