I suspect the pupperware stock is the reason I receive a 6" flier at 100 Yards. Three shots tight and one drops. I use a rest so I don't think it is me. The fore stock moves and touches the barrel. I have been told that epoxy doesn't hold to the plastic. Does any one have a cost...

A close friend had his basement flooded night before last. He is overwhelmed in issues... He asked me to clean and oil his M-1 grand match for him. It looks to have never been fired. it was 2 foot under water in a silicone sheath. It is clean but needs to be disassembled and oiled. It...

So far I have found Enduron IMR 4166 to be surprisingly accurate and quick to load very accurate 95gr. SST hunting loads. Now I'm looking to move up to more testing for 8:1 twist. I'm going to try 105, 107,108 and 109gr pills. Accuracy is my main concern. I have IMR 4350, H...

I have 2 grandsons in the far north of Michigan. They have a lot of acreage to learn how to shoot. I believe they have it all up there. I started of with a Red rider. I want them to have a opportunity to learn how to hit the target wile they are young. A 6mm Dasher in a solid built...

In the past I had seen some kind of powder pressure curves. You know what I'm talking about? Spike over time with x load. I am wondering if a gentle up and down is more accurate. Accuracy is my goal. Can any one give me some references per case bullet load...?

I watched a Erik Cortina video on cleaning stainless barrel with a CLR. Check it out. he claims for stainless it is fantastic. Although he also recommends you test it before you use it on carbon steel. Well stainless has more carbon in it than a standard steel barrel. Doesn't it? Anny...

The 10 10 scale has served me well. It works as well today as it did 42 years ago. Although today I find it's time to move on to a digital type. I am having problems with clearly seeing the readings on the 10-10. Also it is slower than a snail. I decided to purchase some blem bullets. It...

So I want to remove the stock and cant remove screw. It is large slotted but wont budge. Am I expected to purchase a $100 tool set to remove it of can I use a impact driver with a well fitting slotted driver. What's up with the heavy torque.

I have 30 single fireformed Lapua 6mm Creedmoor cases. I'm in the process of giving them a second light forming. So I want to have a tight chamber but it seems to be mighty loose. I sized the cases with a Redding type S Match die set using the Redding competition shell holders. They allow me...

So the sight in for the Savage 6mm CR. I figure I must have set the shoulders back too far. Causing the primer not to fire. So my plan is to pull the bullet, dump the powder and soak the primer then knock it out. With Safety glasses... on. 40> years and it finally happened. I'm...

I have been collecting my goods for loading my 6mm creedmore. What a pain looking for dependable Load Data. Its been a wile since I had a new cartrage to work with. I was in Cabela's yesterday and found a container of 4166 I thought I would give it a try. Or should I say find load data for...

I'm stuck in a rut. So its time to try to dig my self out. I finally got all my parts together for Scope installation then goofed up. Mounting a TPS 1-piece XP Tactical Picatinny style 20 MOA rail. I might have it on backwards. It has a lip on the bottom to act as a stop to assure rail...

I see quite a variety of bedding materials since I last got into them. I don't recall a gel... used years ago. Should I avoid one for any reason. Uther than perhaps fire hazard or tox. I suppose ese of use would be nice. I want to stiffen up my Savage bedding and forearm...

I don't want to confuse this with the 45 Auto primer pocket problem of sorting cases for loading. Although I have seen accuracy improvement with 22 Hornet when using the cooler Remington primers. That's my experience with hot and cold primers. If the colder primer gives a more even burn to...

I have collected a lot of loading manuals since the 70s. I thought I was finished making purchases of manuals. Boy was I wrong. The Jetsons would be surprised to see what we can do now. Ha ha I want to get good loading sources for my 6mm Creedmoor and was wondering if we have some one...

Back a few years ago I had a problem with getting a rifle to shoot well. I tuned loads the best I could figure. floated the barrel and they all did show a difference. Then I tried a device that seamed to simply be a heavy doughnut for a funny description. A harmonic balancer that looked...

Oh darn! I some how goofed and stuck with a problem. I bought a new Savage 10T with Accu-trigger and Accu-stock. These businesses are continually looking for ways to save a penny. So now the manuals are all on line. I looked at the directions on how to disassemble and reassemble the...

I can understand that some people like to use all the bells and whistles when dressing up... I know there are all kinds of flash arresters or muzzle breaks... But what is the practicality of one using one with a 6mm Creedmoor? I am not being sarcastic but I am curious. I have a Savage 10T...

My first new real shooter in many many years. I bought my self a Christmas gift at Cabela's. It's 10Lbs. 26" barrel 8 twist and I cant wait to start tuning it for some of those little raggedy holes. It has a one piece 20 MOA picatinny rail. I'm considering changing it out with one I...

I have the opportunity to be taking varmint and whitetails at up to 500Yds. The issue is the cross wind can be up to 25 MPH and I want to keep the kick to a minimum. I have a very accurate 222 varmint special that I could use for the varmint although I have seen there is a big problem...
