    timspawn replied to the topic Reloading Die Lock Rings in the forum Main Forum 2 months ago

    The old RCBS dies had a split ring with no flats if I remember right. I actually like the Lee set up but the Hornady split ring works great, I just don’t have many Hornady die sets. I guess a guy could order a bunch of their rings and retrofit his dies.

    We are back at it Sunday with about a hundred head, hopefully, no fireworks.

    I ended up having to climb the fence a few times myself but I never got horizontal.

    by a 700 pound heifer. If you haven’t witnessed it, I highly recommend it. The only permanent damage was to his pride.

    timspawn replied to the topic Who or what is these guys?? Big Horn Armory ?? in the forum Lever Action rifles 3 months ago

    I bought one for a friend in 500 S&W. It was a work of art. The fit and finish were superb. He loves it.

    timspawn started the topic Trigger Tech Triggers in the forum Gunsmithing 3 months ago

    I installed one of these in a 7 Mag Sendero last night. It seems well made and solid. Installation was simple (as it should be). The bolt release lever only needed a slight tweaking (as most triggers do) to get proper contact on the bolt release. On my scale, the trigger broke at 3 pounds consistently. I turned the adjustment screw out 5 clicks to…[Read more]

    I got sticker shock looking at bolts.They want more for a bolt than I paid for the rifle.

    Thanks for the heads up. On a different note, can a 700, 7 mag action be used for standard length cartridges by just swapping out the bolt and bottom metal?

    I’ll  post a pic when I get a chance. It is during extraction not during feeding. I put a new box, follower and spring in it and still have the same issue. It seems to be coming off the bolt face and the case head is getting stuck between the receiver rail and the top of the feed rail.

    I just traded into a 700 ADL in 243. It is an older wood stocked model in excellent condition. If I load four rounds and start working them through the action, the second round, about 25% of the time will not eject. The case head seems to hang up on the left side of the receiver. It is only the second round and only about one in four tries. Any ideas?

    Yes, it is blowback. 6.8 pounds.  One in 45 and or 10mm would be fun!

    While the beauty of high polish is hard to argue, I have always been a fan of a quality matte finish. To me, it is more practical and better suited to a field gun than a mirror finish.

    The specialty one I used was about 17 years ago. It was made by Primos if I remember correctly. I couldn’t tell that it worked any better that a regular light. I use Surefire lights and love them.

    I shot this buck with an old Ruger 77 in 250 Savage. I was using a Speer 87 grain Hot Cor over Benchmark powder. A high shoulder shot at just over 100 yards dropped him in his tracks. He weighed 185 pounds.
