    On Tuner adjustments:

    John Cascarino always is fiddling with his tuner & the sighter looks like like chicken wire screen. Then at the last 30 seconds, he shoots 5X's! Some day when I grow up I want to shoot just like John!

    Primer Hardness?

    I did a small test to see if different primers would reduce cratering in my 30BR on a 700 action. In particular, I was interested if the primers that are advertised as milspec to reduce the chance of a slam-fire in AR’s would show less cratering. I tried CCI #41 and Fed 205M-AR, with Fed 205M...

    Annealing made perfect aztec sort

    You’re referring to my post. It seems that the people making negative comments about salt bath annealing have never tried it. I’ve successfully used this method for 3 yrs & have had no problems. The salt bath method is simple, consistent, and economical. The concerns about “don’t let water...

    Need a Spotting Scope recommendation

    What works for me A friend recommended a Celestron 65mm Ultima Zoom Spotting Scope for use in hunter class. You need a spotter to see the bullet holes even at 100 yds. The Celestron is $155 from Amazon & will resolve bullet holes at 300 yds, the farthest we shoot. There are 80 and 100 mm...

    6BR and Norma brass

    Why would you changed from the commonly available & great Lapua brass? Regards, Ron

    6MM Classic brass

    Short answer is yes. They called it Classic because PPC was copyrighted. I believe it dates from that time when SAKO 220 brass got hard to find & before Lapua started making 220. I think the 30 American (30-30 small primer) was made about that time too, but perhaps that was later than that...

    Superior Action Rifle, Dryden NY

    I've noticed that the Sherman actions, as well as the Shilen actions, and Shilen actions made by SS&D. all made in upstate NY, seem to have serial numbers ending in L. No coincidence I'll bet, but the significance is probably lost to history. It certainly did not mean left hand, because mine...
