  1. "Pull Marks" on pulled bullets, do they matter?

    For informal target shooting I shoot some pulled bullets that have marks from being pulled as shown. They shoot well for me but has anyone filed them down and seen a difference or did they shoot the same? I was contemplating trying it, but thought I'd see if anyone has done it first. Thanks.
  2. Head's up on a deal on a 222

    I have no affiliation, but this seems like a real good deal on a target 222 built by Hart on a 700 with a cheap 36x scope for $799. I'd love to have it but I have too many irons in the fire already. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1134114432
  3. Head's Up: Sightron SIII Long Range 8-32 & others 50% off

    MidwayUSA has a few models of the SIII including the 6-24 & 8-32 LR models 50% off, so under $700. Tough to beat that value on a great optic. https://www.midwayusa.com/s?promotionid=1699243&avad=46611_e44bdff6d&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=34931&utm_campaign=46611&utm_content=NA
  4. Anyone suppress their benchrest 6ppc/etc?

    I recently bought a vintage Weber 6ppc benchrest rifle. This rifle will not be used in any competitions, just shooting small groups for fun. In the last few years I've been using suppressors on most of my rifles. I will most likely thread the barrel and use a suppressor, just because I like...
  5. Al Weber 6ppc - Vintage BR

    I bought and am waiting to pick up a vintage benchrest rifle. It's built on an Al Weber action and is chambered in 6ppc. It has a 27" barrel, sits in a huge wood stock, and weighs 17 pounds. It will just be a fun range target rifle. I already have another Weber rifle, whose original barrel...
  6. SELLING 700, Krieger, chassis, threaded

    Only selling because I have to pay for a lathe and mill. Smooth RR prefix trued 700 action with a Krieger 8 twist barrel chambered in 6.5x47L. Threaded 5/8 24, length 23.5". Trybe chassis (solid, length-adjustable chassis), tuned Rem trigger - very crisp. Very accurate with Nosler 140s, load...
  7. 6PPC brass, starting from scratch. Any new choices?

    I haven't acquired a 6ppc in 15 years so I'm way out of the loop about any new brass options. I have an Al Weber 6ppc in jail that I'll pick up in a week. For a non-competition range target rifle, is there an 'easy button' these days? Is it still Lapua 220R & fire-forming, or is there...
  8. Dumb question about neck clearance & expansion upon ignition

    Probably a dumb question, but I'm trying to understand what happens to the neck diameter upon firing and why you need neck clearance. Upon ignition, the pressure inside the case expands the brass to form to the chamber, but the neck which contains the bullet doesn't see that pressure because...

  10. Barrel removal Browning BBR

    I have an old 22-250 that I'd like to get the barrel theaded. I have a barrel vice but my only action wrench fits a Remington 700, I assume that won't work. Can anyone point me to what i need? Thanks.
  11. SELLING Browning SA-22 semi-auto 22LR

    Family member asked me to sell this and I know nothing about them. GunBroker values are all over the place. This is in great shape with nice wood and Engraving on both sides and the trigger guard. I put it on gunbroker with a penny start, someone might get a good deal...
  12. Does anyone make 300BO prefits for a Rem 700 pattern?

    I've purchased a few suppressors and I have powder and heavy 30cal bullets for 300BO and I want to "make" a 300BO bolt action rifle. I have a smooth Rem 700 action with a 223 boltface that I don't use much. Does anyone make a prefit Rem 700 pattern barrels that I could just spin on? Even a...
  13. 1967 Remington 700 ADL 270 Winchester

    Remington 700 ADL 269XXX serial number chambered in 270 Winchester from Remington's golden era. Pretty nice figure in the stock for a factory piece of wood. Tombstone safety. Barrel code shows March 1967 production. It might have been fired a few times AT MOST and its in excellent condition...
  14. Help with hunting rifle bottom metal

    I haven't put a custom hunting rifle together in a while and I'm not up to speed on what to get (or if my parts will even work together). I have slowly assembled parts here and there. I have had a used Kelbly Atlas Tactical short action mag bolt face sitting on the shelf for a while. I bought...
  15. SELLING WTS Nosler brand 28 Nosler brass

    I was going to build a 28 Nosler, but plans change and I've got no plans to use these in the near future. I got these at the gun show around 2 years ago. They came in cardboard boxes, I think they're factory loaded brass that had the bullets pulled. I didn't check them all, so there might be...
  16. K98 question — Controlled feed from Mag

    I'm no CRF expert. Recently bought a K98 for cheap at the fun show. If I place a round into the chamber, I can't close the bolt. But, if I place a round into the internal mag, it will chamber normally. Is this normal? Sorry, I've never had a CRF rifle that acted this way. Thanks in advance.

  18. SELLING WTS/WTT Butter knife handle BRNO 8x57S Full-stock

    Zbrojovka Brno, 8x57s, 7-9 on barrel, 48 in front of action, SN 209XX. This is a shooter-grade example, as it was stored with a slip-on recoil pad and the stock is slightly lighter where the pad was. The pad will be included and is in good shape. The stock may be touched up to be made matching...
  19. 8mm Mauser vs 8x57JS ???

    Finally found a K98 Mauser at the fun show. Grabbed a set of dies and a guy had a bag of brass labeled "8mm Mauser." Got home and found that half are RP 8mm MAUS and half are Norma 8x57JS. I'm no expert, but I had thought that those were both names for the same cartridge, maybe the JS having...
