I know the Guvmint is finicky about what gun parts or related items can be sent out of the country without their blessing. Any issue with sending screws used to plug up the holes in the receiver or barrel by mail to Sweden?

Anyone get that this morning? I got back in using a VPN.

If I shoot a rifle bullet straight up where the barrel is perpendicular to the earth at the point of departure in theory it should come down at the same point if earth rotation and wind effects don't play a role. If I hold the barrel one half of a degree off of perpendicular is there a program...

Anyone familiar with it? I acquired a few .25-06AI cases with the idea of finally getting some of the proper .06 length. They won't chamber in either of my 6.5-06AI rifles. I also was going to check for flash hole burrs, but the flash hole is smaller than normal so my deburring tool won't enter...

Adrenalectomy is the surgical removal of an adrenal gland. For me it would be due to a growth on both adrenal glands that is benign, but producing cortisol resulting in hypercortisolism. It can lead to Cushing's Disease or Cushing's Syndrome. High blood pressure and diabetes can result from it...

Is there any trick to using the little saw-wheel knobs to lock the legs in place once they've been adjusted? I can't keep the things from losing adjustment and finger tight doesn't cut it. Mine are probably 35+ years old. I'd hate to resort to using pliers on them.

Anyone else getting a messed up page/s when accessing this website?

Old remington triggers that lock bolt when safety is on Anyone here ever mill a groove in a newer Remington 700 action to accommodate the old style triggers that lock the bolt when the safety is engaged?

Is it possible to do an acceptable job cutting threads for a brake or silencer using a die like you'd use for pipe threads as it is doing it using a lathe? If not then how much would you need to disassemble a rifle in order to do it right?

For those of you in the know more than myself are Nightforce scopes used more by target shooters, benchresters, hunting crowd or long range shooters? What types of shooters do Nightforce products appeal to the most? Thanks in advance if you have any comments that you'd be willing to share...

FWIW I saw elsewhere for those of you who use them that Hodgdon is bringing them back.

The reason I posted the other thread about lock rings was because I wanted to change my die setting to try some case forming. I was trying to see if I could move the shoulder of a .280AI case down far enough to chamber in a 6.5-06AI. Well that doesn't work. Anyone know why? An acquaintance...

When it comes to die lock rings I like to use the ones with the wrench flats from Hornady. What I don't like is that they have an Allenhead bolt 5-32 x 3/8 to use to tighten the ring. I have been known to overtighten Allenhead things. Yesterday I had occasion to reset one of my sizing dies and...

Can anyone here comment about the quality of these? They are the product of a Bosnia-Herzegovina–based company. They are available for $120 per brick plus hazmat fee, taxes and shipping.

Since the previous thread about this issue isn't appearing I'll ask the gunsmiths a general question. Does truing an action have any appreciable effect on the position [fore or aft] of the bolt handle which could affect primary extraction?

Is there any special requirement to be met because of the inclusion of a suppressor if one wanted to procure one? It seems that the wait to get approval to purchase and install a suppressor on a common hunting rifle [we'll call it a Remington 700 in .270 Winchester] is about a year; if not...

Is it not possible to post pictures in private messages?

Do they affect accuracy if put on a rifle where their use could be justified? If so then by about how much normally?
