slug barrels Boyd &all, I think more people are slugging barrels then you realize. people are buying 3-4 barrels and slugging them . the ones that pass ;/? they keep, others are sold online. I bought barrels here on this site that had lead in them, from people not knowing how to slug barrels...

I agree with you Boyd, on letting the turner float in your hand. Also the FIT of the mandrel is VERY important. I use only Carbide mandrels. then I make the expander mandrel to the fit I want. The expander mandrel might be different for new out of box brass to once fired and sized brass. of...

can't say they will hurt or not. I've seen some pretty bad things shoot some good groups. I like .002 per side on a 308. Ken

on my tight neck and fitted neck cartridges , I can turn them better than I can measure them. I had one of those donut cutter mandrel things. I ground the donut cutter off so it don't hit. Now it's a good carbide mandrel. This is the turner for 308. I also made a bigger handle for it to act...

I just turned 500 Lapua 308 Large primer brass and am in the middle of turning 300 small primer Lapua 308. My turner is set for .014 also. The Large primer brass did not clean up completely @ .014 . I'd say an 90% clean up . the low spots were at .0135 +- . The small primer brass all cleaned...

Looks like a good setup. How does the sock fit you? it should drill. , don't wear the bbl out with break in. its not all its bragged up to be. What load do you plan on using ? keep us updated and post some groups. kl

I have original Bald Eagle rests, and have a NEW Bald Eagle rest . They are both of the same quality. The cable windage on the new rest does have backlash. I just converted it back like the original on the rest top. I'm sure with some work the cable can be made to work better. I feel they are...

i bought a Bix&Andy trigger to replace an OLD Hart trigger. The B&A is the best trigger i ever felt. totally awesome.. the one difference I see is the B&A has about .040 less firingpin fall. Idon't think it really matters as it is in an blueprinted Remington action. if it does,, I'll have to...

How heavy a bbl can a rem.700 support. building a rifle now and cant decide if i should use a 30" heavy palma or a 30" HV taper. I'm not trying to hijack this thread , I think this is relevant to op's question. I do think a Savage target action can support a heavier bbl. BUT trigger options...

I understand more than i did . But an electrical engeneer i'll never be. I had this juenke thing here for over 20 years, only ever used it to check bullets myself or al weaver made. either we made good bullets or never knew how to use the machine. about 2 weeks ago, I ran some 25cal, 100gr...

Just what is an eddie current? and how does it work?

Wayne, your the man. Good shooting, Ken Livengood

Lou, ck your email, Let me know. Ken

what would a machine 1995 era, be worth at this time? I've used it to set up bullet dies, 30 cal. i found it came in as a use full tool for setting up the core seat die. if you got that right then you were making good bullets. you didn't always need tons of core seat pressure. big variation...

I actually did this as my first bbl project many moons ago. The first bbl I ever chambered started life as a 222 cruiser barrel. 1.250 straight. cut off chamber and chambered it for 222 on a remington action. I was pretty proud. That gun shot well. Got talking to my mentor; Vince Pastorella ...

Does anybody know the freebore needed on a 223 reamer with a 1 1/2 degree lead, this is for 69 gr sierra hpbt match bullets, I need it to be in the lands @ magazine length 2.260. The group I am doing these barrels for is very fussy and it has to be right. I know I could get a throater, but I...

Husky, I have a Gracey, It has a 6.5 pilot so you would need to get a 6mm pilot.(There cheap) If you want the turner you can have it. I didn't have much luck with it. I had it for sale cheap but no bites. If you want it, it's yours. just get your address to me and i'll send it . Ken Livengood
