    Bore Guide These Days

    I don't know if he is still doing them but email Mike Lucas [email protected] tell him what you have and see if he can get you fixed up with whatever you need. I have numerous Lucas bore guides and Mike makes nice stuff but he may be getting up there in age and I'm not sure if he still is...

    Terrible custom build experience

    I'm wondering if they did a load work up for the OP's specific rifle at all and instead just used something they'd used before that shot well in another rifle chambered in the same cartridge but possibly one without a det mag setup. I had a 300AX built by the creator of that cartridge some...

    Remington 700 stock

    For the money in a conventional stock grip configuration IMO the HS Prec. are really hard to beat. I have numerous on different Rem 700 semi custom builds and they are a very solid stock. The B&C are a look alike to the HS Prec. and are often mistaken for a HS Prec. but the HS is a better...

    Custom rifle maker - recommendations wanted.

    My "go to" smiths are Defensive Edge Rifles and Kampfeld Customs. Shawn and his dad at DE have built numerous for me and they've all been great as well as they are top notch to work with and have never steered me wrong. I've also had Karl Kampfeld do quite a bit of work for me too and Karl is...

    HS PRECISION DETACHABLE MAGAZINE COMPLETE ASSEMBLY

    My 6.5 PRC is a CA Ridgeline but it just has the standard CA hinged floor plate it came with. All my HS Prec det mag systems are on Rem 700 based builds. The CA actions are Rem 700 clones so I'm sure one will work equally as well on one of those as they do a Rem 700. The nice thing about the...

    HS PRECISION DETACHABLE MAGAZINE COMPLETE ASSEMBLY

    I have multiple HS Prec det mag setups on rifles both SA and LA they've all functioned and been great. Depending on the mag capacity the mags only stick out around 1/4 inch and are barely noticeable. I'll be very surprised if you aren't very happy with it.

    Bartlein or benchmark cfw barrel

    Bartlein CF barrels tend to weigh more then many or even most of the others because they leave more steel on the barrel before they have them wrapped. It's kind of funny, when you talk to some of the barrel manufactures that have both all steel and CF wrapped barrels the honest ones will tell...

    Bartlein or benchmark cfw barrel

    I'm of the same belief, aesthetics and a lighter wallet is really all you gain and even with that the aesthetics part is one of those beauty is in the eye of the beholder things because for every person I know that thinks they "look" cool, I'm in that camp, I know someone that doesn't like how...

    6CM clickers

    I think ADG makes the brass you're using and their brass typically has a little less case capacity then many of the others. From what I've read ADG 6CM brass holds around 49-ish gr H20. Reducing the case capacity down to 49.5 and running your load through QL shows 2920 which is pretty close to...

    6CM clickers

    How close to touching the lands are you at 2.800 COAL ? If you're touching or real close to touching that'll spike up the pressure and take a load that is on the edge of overpressure if it was 10-15 thou off touch but send it well overpressure if that same load is touching the lands or real...

    6 CM & 108 ELD Velocity - Barrel Length

    I'm having a rifle rebarreled to 6CM for my daughter and I can't decide between going 20 or 22 but most likely I'll go 22 with this one. The suppressor I use for my 6 and 6.5's is an SAS Barricade and they're just a little over six inches long so it'll still be a reasonable length. My current...

    6mm-284 lets hear it!

    If you have a 6.5-284 bushing die set all you'll need is a different size bushing and you're good to go.

    Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

    If we didn't have that here in Wa I'd be ok going that route but we have to be 24 cal or larger here so that's why I'm going 6CM.

    Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

    I was curious about the stock weight so I just pulled it apart and weighed it. The stock on these really isn't that heavy, it weighed 33.3 ounces. I'm not all that surprised though because the B&C stocks I've weighed in the past were always a few ounces lighter then a comparable HS Prec. The...

    Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

    The post 64 Model 70 push feed actions no longer had the big claw extractor and the bolt was very similar looking to a Rem 700. Then, some years later Winchester changed back to using the big claw extractor. The version Model 70 I have has the big claw extractor but isn't a true CRF bolt. I...

    Type S dies for dummies

    You really shouldn't be using a expander button with a bushing die anyway. Using the expander button with a bushing die kind of defeats the purpose of using a specific size bushing to get the exact neck tension you're trying to achieve. If the expander button is smaller then what your bushing...

    6mm Creedmoor or 6.5 Creedmoor for Western Hunting

    I have a Winchester mod 70 "Coyote" model 22-250 I'm going to rebarrel for my daughter. I've got a 6 and 6.5 ACE barrel on the shelf to choose from for this project and after giving it a lot of thought 6 Creedmoor it will be. I've got a bunch of Berger 105 Hybrids and a pretty health supply of...

    Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

    Soooo I guess it's safe to assume not many build off of these things.....
