    Surface Grinder

    Zebra, I bought a big heavy duty DoAll a year ago, got a helluva deal on it. Magnetic chuck, coolant system, the whole works...haven't used it, not even one time. Had to have the darned thing, once I got it I realized the only forseeable use I would have for it was to true recoil lugs. I cannot...

    1000 yd Muzzle Brake Rule Change

    Use any petition/agenda item you personally want. It is obviously important to jbennington that you sign his, but there can be many agneda items. Sign them all, sign none, it is your choice. No one is asking to not sign yours, why would you ask for people to not sign someone else's ...

    Question?

    It is no problem at all to remove the extractor, and you can get just the pin from Brownells to peen it back in when done with the bolt face. I know alot of 'smiths do it like it is mentioned above, but I've never had any luck trying to do it that way...I'm probably not making the bit correctly...

    1000 yd Muzzle Brake Rule Change

    Guys, Change can be good and change can be bad. Usually if it is bad, steps can be taken to fix the change. IBS rules do allow for this. If an agenda item is passed, it is employed on a trial basis for the upcoming season. A mail in ballot with the temporary rules on it is sent to every IBS...

    phase converter for Bridgeport

    I have a 5 hp rotary phase converter that I'm not using anymore...got a new bigger lathe and needed a bigger one to run both lathes...that I could sell you. It is a Phase-a-Matic, and is still wired up with the 3 phase disconnect. All you would have to do is hook 220 to it, and the machine to...

    Norma 300 WSM Brass

    Tod, I got somewhere in the neighborhood of 35 firings out of my Norma 300WSM brass before developing any problems. Stopped counting at 30, but only went a few more before I split 2 of them at the body/shoulder junction. Of course it happened at the 2008 Nationals. Primer pockets were still...

    Something to think about

    a.JR, I'm not sure about the number of benches necessary, but with the current 1000yd rules under IBS 16 shooters is more than enough to hold a points match. It used to be 20 shooters needed but that changed a couple of years back. I will be leaving to go to the IBS Winter meeting later today...

    Stinky hands

    Speaking of skunks...try tomato juice. That's what is supposed to take the stink off if you get "skunked". I've also heard of using milk. ------------Jeff

    Got my load on...6XC update

    Explain yourself Jeff in OH. It looks as if he shorted the group size a little with the calpiers, but look at the angle of the photo. It is possible that the caliper is positioned correctly if the photo was taken from directly above. Assuming the group was measured correctly, and the calipers...

    Bedding a Savage Model 10.

    Fitch, I basically use the same method to remove the mag well as Monte does, but I use a flat punch held against the back tang of the mag well and hit the punch with the hammer. Small hammer, light hit...pops it out every time. Goes back the same way. As far as installing a detachable mag, you...
