    Jewell Trigger

    How old is it? Once upon a time there were quite a few Jewell's that had the sear bar cocking piece interface up to .050" too far forward reducing pin fall by same.

    more steenking testing....

    Nothing came and went, it hasn't been released yet. It's not due till Q1 of 2017. The only people to have any of it was for testing. Graff's or one of the other large reloading suppliers will let you backorder it. http://newsletter.lapua.club/a/s/94311509-f75d814eafe2741a098f0767f6f66be5/1468273

    What did I do wrong?

    You used to be able to get decent pricing on deublin or duff-norton rotary unions on ebay. Might take a look and see. I've picked them up off of machinist forums used tooling as well.

    Anchor Lube:

    Yes, I buy it by the gallon with several squeeze bottles around. I use it mostly for drilling, tapping, punching and an engraving lube. Other stuff here and there. Just another tool on the shelf. Cleans up well. Drilled lots of structural steel with it and unibits. Tool life seems good with it...

    30 BR Change Barrel

    It's been covered several times on this forum but I'll mention it again. There are two common but different OAL case length reamers out there in use. Even if both have zero freebore it does not equal the same effective freebore. There is .040" difference so it's not trivial. The Grizzly print is...

    ITAR Registration

    TRA, it matters not if you have an FFL of any kind the State Dept doesn't care. Now having an FFL may help lead the State Dept to your door. There are plenty of non-FFL holders that are registered and paying ITAR. If you are in the business to make parts or perform services listed in their...

    VFD question

    So you have a safety disconnect between the VFD and the load but you don't actually use it to switch the load on and off or reverse? You use (like most everyone) the VFD to control your load?

    Fired case neck size vs loaded neck size

    The reasoning behind this was at some point someone noticed that when you ran large OD necks into a much smaller bushing the neck would roll in on the leading edge of the bushing to a smaller diameter than desired and what the bushing ID would normally give resulting in a neck ID/OD smaller than...

    Absolutely! §122.1 Registration requirements. (a) Any person who engages in the United States in the business of manufacturing or exporting or temporarily importing defense articles, or furnishing defense services, is required to register with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls under...

    VFD question

    You say two loads separately controlled. Does this mean you wish to switch either load (on/off, forward/reverse etc...) at the machine? VFD's in general do not tolerate switching the load.

    ITAR Registration

    On Friday 07/22/2016 the State Department issued a clarification on firearm manufacturing, gunsmithing and ITAR registration. Looks to me like a whole lot of people who thought they've been exempt are going to have register and pay ITAR or risk the wrath of the government. Applicability of the...

    Target Paper

    I believe some of it is made with heavy tagboard which is 125lb. IBS and NBRSA use different printers and I believe have different specs for the paper. Both have changed official printers over the years too. I have a large batch of older IBS Speedwell printed targets and they are .009" thick...

    I don't come here much anytmore so I don't know if this will be redundant, but

    By hand and yes for finishing the throat. I use an old scrap piece of cleaning rod. Mine are all marked tampons.

    Bill Myers showed them to me about 8-10 years ago. He finished his throats with them and I've been doing the same ever since.

    hands free floating reamer holder

    Al, I think I'm on the same page with you here. I believe only a pusher that utilizes a flat against a cylindrical flat (I'll call this a Bryant style) will attempt to self correct back to center and a ball/radius to flat (I'll call this a Bald Eagle design) will not. Also if the flat to flat is...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    Short action, .473" bolt face, 8.5 twist, SAAMI reamer with std .199" freebore works well. A .170" freebore may be easier to get most of the common bullets into the lands at mag length. .170" freebore usually works with factory ammunition but not always. Manson typically has the 6.5 Creedmoor...

    Boyd, Do you feel a wood & carbon stock is required to have a competitive short range BR rifle? Reading your comments makes it seem so.
