Ok thank you I'm not sure how to calculate it and have been trying too. I called the barrel manufacture and they said should work but wouldn't give me any details. Beings that they sell savage pre fit barrels at 1.06 so idk

Hello I'm trying to see if anyone out there had rebarreled a Weatherby vanguard . I know the specs are 26mm with a 1.5 pitch however I was looking for info on cutting the counter bore for the bolt nose. I have a cutter for a .705 for the Remington 700. But it appears to be too big. Anyone...

Thank you for the advice. Yes that is correct I do have very little experience. I guess my question should say should I start out with soldering and gas welding to learn? I do not plan on doing cracked actions for other people or advertising to do so but to learn under a very experienced mentor...

Hello all I am looking into purchasing a welder to do small jobs. Example fixing a cracked action,attaching sights and a bolt etc My question is im not sure I can afford a tig setup. Will gas welding work for what I want to do until I can afford a tig setup? I know that everyone says stick...

Hello all I have a savage 116 that I'm looking to re barrel to a 338 rum My question is ... Is there any benefit or added strength by threading the barrel off the shoulder like a 700 opposed to threading the new barrel without a shoulder to accept the barrel nut? Also is there any logical...

Thanks I have never really loaded plated bullets before do you follow hard cast bullets or ? Does it matter as long as the weight is the same

Hello all Recently I purchased about 500 berrys plated 45 cal 230 grain bullets My plan was to reload for my 45 super and rowland however I'm reading that they don't work all that great for rowland because they need to be kept under 1200 fps so with that said I have a lot of bullets and a...
