Hey Coach, I can speak for Robert. He does not frequent the forum.The quick answer is yes, and yes. This was when he was testing. He used the same bullets in the match, plus the barrel you gave him. "using bullets from Butch and Fed 205MAR" Texas size Thanks.

In case Robert does not see this. It was with the American Barrel Company chambered with the reamer cranked out by JGS when I sent them yours to copy.

Thank you to all who posted on my question. I even put my brother to work - he annealed the brass. It will have to do for now. The proof is on the range, will see how it shoots. https://youtu.be/UI_idb79QTc The RWS 270 brass I fireformed were my Christmas present last year from Dave...

Al, here is my 1st attempt on the Howa. Take Note, I used flanged delrin bushing.

It was the same action, Virg. Time flies, my friend, 20 years ago I was in China for four years. Bought the Howa from Servuce Merchandise for 175 more like 35 years ago. It was a 270 back then when we used to hunt together.

Thank you, will look into it.

Al, I received the flanged delrin sleeves and the M6-1.0 all thread. Will start on this sometime next week after I finish the barrel I screwed up. Nez

Dave and Al, Thank you for all the tips. I was fighting two fronts, the other was screwing up a CF Bartlein for my other hunting rifle. It was going to be a 300WM, but I grabbed a 300 WSM reamer instead. It was halfway through the chamber when I realized the reamer is awfully fat. Barrel is...

Al, Thank you for sharing, wealth of information. I am terrible in bedding, so to get my 280AI that I just chambered I paid someone to do bed it for me. To checked the integrity, loosened the front screw, the 0.001 indicator went almoat one full rev. Field expediency, I just cut up a CC, and...

Who has done them? Are there any tricks specific to this action? Who does commercial bedding on these rifle? May just have to send this rifle to someone who specializes on these actions. Any recommendation? Nez

Thanks, Jackie

JB Weld to glue the action, curious why is it not a popular one for bedding?

Here is a novice input/question One layer of blue tape is go, two layers is no go. Right or wrong?

I asked Matt, he said it must have been about 15 years ago when they offered the model, no longer available from them.

It never was a catalog item. Call Matt amd talk to him about it. It is the same lathe as the Eisen 1440EV. Made by the same factory, Liang Dei, just different badge. https://eisenm.com/products/eisen-1440ev-precision-lathe-5hp-dro-installed-heavy-cast-iron-base The VFD was installed in...

220 single phase input, the VFD converts it to 3P.

Pm1440tv I special ordered it through Precision Matthews from Taiwan. It took almost a year to get it. D1-4 nose, 5 HP main motor, factory Yaskawa VFD, DRO Pros. The headstock is kind of long, but not insurmountable, many ways around it.

I'll play. 21st Century turning tool mounted in the chuck. The tailstock is driven to the chuck with a rack mounted on the bed. The handwheel runs the system fairly fast. All mandrels are Melonited, they just get shinier with use. Video is just a demo for a friend, don't really wear long...

Is this the kid, Forrest Greenwood? This is the 2020 Interservice Match. This match is a slugfest between all branches including the Guards and Reserves. The iron sight record set by a Marine with his M14 still stands. Some AMU kids broke it, but with scoped M16s.
