Thanks, Jerry, for sharing your experiences when turning the OD of a barrel. you shared a lot more than I expected. my question was directed in...

Tim, I like to try different things just to see how it may work. for me the fun is tinkering and if the rifle does well then even better. Lee

Oh, sorry. 🙄 I did have them in mind.

First of all, I am only shooting 50 yard ARA type of benchrest currently. ALL of my efforts go to that goal. I think most of my issues and data...

Well, I guess that answers that question although I cannot imagine simply not getting a RF blank .900” +- even for a 40X type tenon.

Tim, some barrel contours are 1.200 at the chamber end from anywhere in length of 3-4". turning them to have a better fit/transition to action. ...

Now I’m curious, why would you do that?

and WOW... you completely ignored the benchrest people...100/200/300, 600 and 1000 yards, and the military.

Jerry, in post #4 you mentioned a detectable bore growth when reducing the OD by .100 or more and you feel this is not good, so I understand you are...

I'd say most of the Nightforce products are designed for the tactical, PRS, NRL, hunter rolls. Their claim to fame is being rugged and continuing...

Mike, I in no way intended to discredit anything you posted. I was just answering the op with what information I know. I'm not sure what the...

So, if you think the bore needs to be tighter at the crown, I'd suggest a close fitting clamp on design and affect the bore diameter with torque?...

Here is my take on this, it's only my opinion, but as an engineer, I think at it from that standpoint. 1. There is so little recoil, that almost...

^^^This^^^. Actually, I've found that EVERY joint in the system does move at high enough frequencies. As long as they are repeatable, I don't see...

This FX Dreamline LV rifle is getting some attention, as we were not aware that an inexpensive LV rifle was so accurate. Very impressive. Excellent...

We are having trouble finding the last Jan. Scores from the USARB match at Open Grove. It is not that important to us, however, are we not counted...

1. A .22RF does not need to be threaded, really no danger of blowing it off. 2. One less machining process on a already expensive barrel. 3....

That document was written before the computer programs were available. Anyone that has shot RFBR knows matches are often won or lost by...

Tony, a question for you. For the matches I have shot, the scoring team scans the target, and if the software flagged a bull to be further reviewed,...

Agree!
