Pete, can't do that anymore. We have to hurry up so we can get home! In the end, its my opinion that the 6X scope is the one aspect of a hunter or VH rifle that limits its popularity. You should open...
Al,
Makes one wonder about all the new uber expensive tight as a drum presses being offered these days doesn't it?
action screws in a bedded benchrest hunter rifle for instance, 35 in lbs isn't enough.
what these little "thermite grenades" are going to do to barrel steel, especially in the first few inches ahead of the chamber?
risks imparting damage to the gun's frame or slide. Think a Colt Gold Cup, designed for mid-range target loads being shot a lot with hardball with no change in mainspring. Not a good idea. Everything...
between nitrogen purged, and nitrogen filled imo. Someone earlier mentioned a chamber with a positive purssure nitrogen feed for final assembly so as to keep dust out. If some scopes are sealed,...
at least no snow! Good shooting all.
to do on a Unertl or Lyman STS if you don't realize what those two screws are holding, just ahead of the eyepiece.
a tacticool shooter....stress multiple aiming points!

on the ring tightens it down at your desired location. When the rifle fires it recoils back but the scope stays put. You have to pull it back against the tightened down stop ring or use a compressed...
I got to meet Jim 2 years ago at Bunk's 2-day 3-yardage shoot at LCRC. Got to know him a bit more afterward. Nice man and very good shooter. My condolences to his family and close friends!!
of the jag's body is near bore size and the length is such that the fat part of the jag keeps it pretty well centered in the bore and the length keeps the brass tip of your rod from getting outside...
several years ago. In calibers I don't have borerider jags I have switched to aluminum ones.
they are NOT kidding :(
Lapua 6.5x55 swede cases in my wife's Tikka T3 no problems. It is a long throated factory chamber. Very accurate rife.

seems to have always suffered here in the US from the vast supply of old mausers that are not proofed for the full potential of the 7x57. American ammo has been loaded for the least common...
in Precision Rifle magazine years ago comparing various bore cleaners like RemClean, JB, IOSSO and as I remember they used a micro fine diatomaceous earth for the cutting action. Sure wish I had...
you guys don't get "cold" weather. Merry Christmas. Common back to the Firecracker in 2022. --Greg
your loaded ammo....an inside observation!
have enough toner in my printer to produce the output! :)
twist Krieger (cut rifled) and concur with the comment above about its performance in cold weather. A 17 twist is, IMO, the best all-around choice.
nothing!
