27" 6 Dasher barrel and what ever bullet the barrel likes . Right now mine like the 105 Barts BT and a couple 108 Berger BT lot #'s. I just could never keep a 6 BR in tune.

Dennis, Thanks I looked on PMA Tool website and you were right they did look nice . I ordered a set but was wondering if the Superfeet I use will work with the PMA leg screws. Used to be you could get Superfeet that fit the tiny tip of the Farley leg screws and those are the type I have . Under...

Contacting Someone at Farley Thanks guy's I'll keep trying by phone . I saw a message on there web sire discouraging phone calls so I was emailing them every week or so hoping to get a reply . I was needing a new set of leg screws as mine got bent in a car wreck last year and I was wanting to...

I am needing some parts for my Farley Coaxial II front rest and have sent numerous emails to Mike at Farley Mfg. and have tried the phone and fax numbers without getting a reply and don'r even get voice mail on the phone. Does Farley shut down for a vacation in the summer time ? If anyone has...

When my benchrest rifles were stolen Larry told me I could take and shoot anything he had if I needed a rifle. Great guy I will miss him. Rodney

I'm thinking your initial idea would be correct . The 6 BR would be hard to beat . However the 6.5 Grendel or 6/6.5 Grendel would work especially if you already have a PPC boltface. Stick with powders on the faster side for the shorter barrel . I'm thinking like maybe XBR 8208 or there abouts...

For the front bag on my Farley I like to use the black sand that can be purchased at Tractor Supply . I think it goes by the trade name "Black Diamond" . The granules are more jagged and they don't pack so hard and tight like other sands but I've never tried the pet store sands either. Also...

Mike, I appreciate the congrats and yes it all came together for a moment or rather for one target. Any success I've had making my own barrels I can attribute to my teachers . Namely Jerry Sharrett and yourself . Thanks! and I must have been paying attention . LOL! Take care, Rodney

Thanks... Thanks guys . I don't think anyone was more surprised than myself that I would have shot a group like that today. But it was a pleasant surprise. When my first target in LG measured 2.8" and was shot in what I thought was pretty decent conditions I was thinking about what other guns I...

Al, That's just being careful. Even the BAT Machine co. Inc. drawings from Newlon have the disclaimer "WARNING: BAT Machine Co. Inc. upon request builds special and oddbal actions with dimensions that vary from this drawing and does not accept any liability from the use or misuse of this...

Thanks for the information . I haven't been able to pull off a search for Shilen DGA to find the thread pitch . Do you know if it is 16 or 18 tpi.?

I need to rebarrel a Shilen DGA action that does not have an old barrel with it for me to go from . I was hoping someone on this forum would know what thread the action uses and the length and diameter of the tenon ? Thanks, Rodney

For the price range you specified I would give a good look at the MagnetoSpeed . http://www.magnetospeed.com/

I think Wilbur makes a very good point . Keep the dues the same and enhance the current website and update it weekly with match information and results.

The 220 Beggs worked out great for me as I had bought a bunch of the IMR XBR 8208 for my 6 PPC's and never could get the 6 PPC to shoot with the XBR like the first bottle I had of the stuff. Anyway Benchmark had been my go to powder for the 220 Beggs and I had heard that XBR was a off spec batch...

The bar is raised once again and glad to see that it was Chad that was the one to raise it . Good shooting Chad and it is a pleasure to shoot with you. Rodney

I hardly ever see a movie until it is a re-run on television but the latest good movie I have seen is "the Book of Eli " with Denzel Washington. Rodney

I incorrectly listed the Hoppe's mixture in my earlier post . I had it backwards . It is : Mix 2/3 rds. Hoppes No. 9 Plus Black Powder solvent with 1/3rd. Regular Hoppes No. 9 Nitro solvent. Let this mixture set overnight and it will form a sort of gel that adheres very well to the brush and...

The Hoppe's Black Powder Solvent is not a get until it is mixed with the regular Hoppe's #9 then it turns into a gel and actually gets thicker over time. Just wanted to make sure if I wasn't clear on what I posted before . Good luck, Rodney

I have used a mixture of 3 parts Hoppe's #9 and 1 part Hoppe's Black Powder Solvent . When mixed the two solvents form a gel that works quite well for getting the "coal" out of barrel. Rodney
