    Does anyone know what size and pitch the sear engagement screw is on the new 700 actions are? I have one I need to remove and replace.

    out of the blue question when /where is peak pressure ?

    I can't say with any certainty but, I would think there would be many variables including bore diameter and internal finish, case capacity, powder burn rate, primer, and bullet weight would all play roles.

    300 magnum chamber

    There isn't any way for anyone to know what size your chamber is exactly without being able to check it. Page 105 here will give you the SAAMI specs. http://saami.org/specifications_and_information/publications/download/Z299-4_ANSI-SAAMI_CFR.pdf#page=13 If you neck turn, just skim the necks...

    Trying to get 69gr Sierra TMKs to shoot 8"twist 22/250

    N540 might be another good one if you can find any.

    Marine Tex

    I found a clamp force calculator online. 60in/lbs on a 1/4" bolt gives 1200 lbs of clamping force. Times 2 bolts would equal 2400 lbs of clamping force. I'm not even sure it would multiply by the number of bolts as much as just spreading out the force equally. Therefore if the white Marine Tex...

    Marine Tex

    So that is ft lbs per bolt? Is that coarse or fine thread? Does the curved shape, bolt spacing and length of contact come into play?

    Marine Tex

    From the Marine Tex site...................White is lower on compressive strength but higher on shear. Both appear to be plenty strong if we torque the action screws to normal rifle action specs. COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH*: Gray - 13,000 PSI (910 Kg/Cm2) White - 8,700 PSI (610 Kg/Cm2) ADHESION...

    Cutting Keyseats InLong Shafts

    I learned to hand scrape ways on machinery when I went through my apprenticeship and reworked a fair number of machines years ago. After seeing the picture of that prop, and its size, only one thought popped in my head. Screw that!

    Marine Tex

    So what do you use to weigh it? Something along the lines of a small postal scale?

    Marine Tex

    I've been thinking about trying marine tex for bedding. Looking at the package, it says "handles like putty". Exactly how thick is this stuff? I'm mainly looking at the white marine tex because I have a project coming up with a white MBR stock.

    6x45 55-65 22"+ Bolt gun

    With the 70's, if you go with them, I wouldn't rule out H4895 either.

    6x45 55-65 22"+ Bolt gun

    Sierra lists their test firearm as a Win mdl 70 with a 24" barrel. According to their data, you will lose about 100fps from the 55's to the 70's. Myself, I'd probably go with the 70's if the gun shoots them well. My opinion is that little extra "thump" at only 100fps less is worth it as long as...

    How much difference

    Well I guess I'm just not that fancy to spend 3x the cost of a BR rifle to drag up and down hills and through the woods to kill a deer......my pocket says more like 1/2 the cost as long as it goes "bang" and whatever it is pointing at dies. That's really all I need. Different strokes for...

    450 vs 7 1/2's

    Flags yes, mostly except times when conditions were near dead. Always 7 1/2's. Holding the rifle as if in the field, not free recoil. Using .002 neck tension. Tried .001, made it worse. Didn't do any jam for fear of bullet pulling if the round needed to be removed. I have seated deeper in the...

    Need some outa'-the-box thinkers...

    A secondary charge at the brake or a tube(s) redirecting the gas to the brake from an appropriate place along the barrel.
