I agree the ideal way to fire form the case in 30BR would be to have a fire forming barrel and use a fast powder. However, I don't. I'm guessing that not too many 30BR shooters have fire forming barrels because there aren't that many "shot out" 30BR barrels like in the PPC world. Right now...

Ok, another novice question. I'm using Lapua 6BR brass and expanding the neck using a Harrel's expanding die to 30 Cal. I also have a 7mm mandrel along with the 30 mandrel. Is it beneficial to expand in two steps as opposed to one or is there a down side to doing that? Also, When I expand the...

Yes, I am aware of neck size consideration. My chamber neck size is .330 and I will target .228 for neck diameter.

It's a fair question but should be directed to me. It should be .3089 - .3090. I will change that in my original question. Whether Alinwa missed it or felt sure what I meant I don't know, but sure appreciated the reply.

I'm trying to get started in 30BR, VFS. I have a new Krieger 1-17 barrel that was marked 300 / 308. What meaning does that have? AND My concern is that I have some Lapua 100 grain 30 cal bullets. I have measured them and they measure .3089 - .3090 Is that OK? What do most 30 Cal bullets...

I'm neither very experienced at barrel changing nor an expert in metallurgy, but I talked to Kelby regarding torquing the barrel for a Panda action, and told 100ft LBS. However, I can read, and Kelby has instructions for torquing his barrels. The instructions say 100 Ft LBS, and use bearing...

When you say, Glued in, are you talking about the action or the barrel?

LOL I'm pretty sure that it does, it may make you shoot blanks also.

I would like to share my appreciation for this thread getting started. Thank you Jim for asking the questions you did to start this thread, which lead to Vera replying and allowing me to be aware of her web site. And, thank you Vera for getting involved and providing information that may...

I agree with some of the suggestion that have been made, but not all. I suppose that if you want to be the best of the best, a person would concentrate on one discipline of shooting, but it doesn't sound as though that is what is being asked about. Now, most of us want to do the best that we...

Interesting understanding. The definition in my dictionary had a different explanation. There seems to be a lot of "shat" going on now days.

Thanks to both you and Butch for the information. I wasn't aware they might measure differently. I still have my brass, so my clearances will be fine. I've been away from shooting for many years and I'm trying to catch up on changes. One of those apparently is the practice of using BT bullets...

NOT meaning to change the subject, but does using BT or a FB change the clearance?

FYI Kelby's instructions say torque to 100 ft lbs and DO NOT USE ANTI SIEZE. PAGE 14 https://www.kelbly.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/KelblyOwnersManualWeb.pdf

LOUIS REPLIED WITH THIS POST. You are probably right but you were also not the one being called an Asshole and a Liar when the other fellow actually is. You might tend to think abit differently if he was actually doing it to you. I'M TRYING TO PROTECT MY REPUTATION from an individual who...

I KNEW IT WOULDN'T LAST!!! I guess that I joined this site for the same or similar reasons as most. An interest in shooting. I suppose I do have some reservations about how the NRA is operating, but it seems like a lot of other folks do too. If there are any doubts, read the beginning posts...

Damn son, we agree on two things now that you say, "We are not the same." --THANK YOU!!!! --

These threads of manure have no bearing on Republican or Democrat, so I reject your conclusion. It's individuals on this site that didn't think it through. We agree on one thing finally. Facts do matter. I'm glad to see you acknowledge that facts matter. The fact of the matter is, Why the...

Louis has a really difficult time with reality and the truth. He says, being on his ignore list was left up to me. For God sake, how is it someone else's choice to put someone on HIS ignore list? I'm not complaining that it was done, and I wish it had been done long ago. He made the choice...

Louis, you're priceless. Had you ignored me, this wouldn't have gone on and on, and you wouldn't be responding now. I requested you to stop lying about what I and others post days ago, but you just couldn't stop. If you ignore me that will make the world a happier place and me very happy...
