I’m glad Jack is making cases for you. The Wasp is a great old cartridge to shoot.

My Taylor and Robbins Wasp case is 1.71”. Jack Harrison who formed mine advertised on gunbroker. He hasn’t been on there for a while.
He used Winchester 30-30 and small primer 30 American brass...
This?

I like Bart’s original flat base 52g
5 shot groups @ 100 yds
I couldn’t get Sierras or Bergers to shoot as small.
If mirage gets thick you can turn down the 15-50x.
I’ve got the 45x, great scope.
I saw this on Rimfire Accuracy, I clean my bench gun at 50 to 100 rounds.

Mike- what’s on the end of that barrel? Appears there is a tube on the tuner? Or a reflection?
This is something and a little weird, the intent part.
Looks like it needs a serial number?

Ok
When I shoulder a shot it always goes low.
Federal did a run of small primer 30-30 brass named 30 American a few years ago, I found about 100 from guys on Accurate Shooters.
It shoots smaller than Zipper or any of the 30-30 brass I loaded...

Good walking varminter for Arnold

Thanks Justin. I take her out a couple times a year to shoot a few groups, she never disappoints.
I’m looking forward to hearing how Buckstix’s Wasp shoots for him.
Thanks Butch. It’s an example of excellent benchrest gunsmithing from the 1960’s.
I didn’t work for a railroad, I collected railroad lanterns for several years till they got too pricy for me. Junk and antique stores and a mail auction- all before the interweb.
The 219 Donaldson Wasp is a very good shooting cartridge that won many br matches in the 1940’s and 50’s and was a premier woodchuck round.
There were several versions, short neck and long neck...
ok, that’s cool
I prefer the exchange of information about guns and gunsmithing without the nastiness and personal attacks.
I guess you can get some help on this site but geeze you sure have to put up with a lot of crap.
Is the 2oz package of Marine Tex enough to bed a 40x single shot action, none under barrel?

The Rimfire accuracy guys talk about one brand of ammo shooting better at 100 yds than others while shooting similarly at 50yds.
I don’t know why, maybe bullet design?
Probably similar tuner or...
After an overnight Kroil soak the bolt opened.
Need to investigate the cause.
It stuck during load development, less than book max load.
The bolt handle moves about 1/2 way to open.
Bolt stuck closed today, can’t open. 25-06 factory extractor, ejector removed.
Pretty sure not a overcharge but seems like extractor is messed up somehow.
Please offer some ideas before I get...
