Remember, the weakest link in determining accuracy, will always be you. I have learned that my bench technique has been the best answer for accuracy. You have to get your eye in the exact position on the stock every time. What I do is mount the rifle, and move my head forward on the scope...

Hans----- Since you began by saying that you are somewhat handy, one of the easiest things that you can do to accurize a rifle is to bed the action. By that, I mean, from the recoil lug to just forward of the chamber. If it is not bedded now, I'm sure that you will see some improvement in the...

That's an old scope, as evidenced by the anodizing. If you send it into Leupold, they with send you a new scope of similar type and value. I don't know if you can negotiate the replacement, but you can ask. Remember, Leupold scopes have a lifetime warranty. If and when you ever need a...

You know, I'm kind of cautious to answer your question because you're framing it in a way that will use my examples as an exception. My reason for citing my and many others' problem with Wolf primers is to inform readers of a problem I know exists. Cartridges I have used them in include, 6BR/...

All the guns, powders, and cartridges I've fired them with have had no problems with any other primer. I'm not sure what that would have anything to do with hang fires. Either it goes bang or it doesn't. The problem with the Wolf is that it goes bang a second after you squeeze the trigger. I...

Back to the original post, I agree with rsmithsr, there is a lot of BS on the net. Frankly, there is a lot of BS on this site. As to Wolf small rifle magnum primers, I would stay away for them. Problem is, they hangfire. Some said, yes they do but only with spherical, some said yes they do...

......is Saubier is ever coming back? It's been down quite a while?

I haven't read every post in this thread, I have my own theory on why there have been so many shootings by relatively young people in recent times. It's not about "crazy" per se or the availability of guns. It's about every issue in our society that feeds into a polarizing narrative. The press...

Thanks for your replies. I've used these primers before and have found no differences in any way with their performance. As far as I'm concerned, I don't see any reason why the CCI Br4 primers should be double the price of the Winchester primers. I don't know if the price difference is the...

I stopped at Cabela's in Reno yesterday and was drawn to the counter where the primers were located. No surprise that there wasn't any deals being offered but, my observations brought up this question. They offered CCI small rifle benchrest primers for $155/1000. There were also Winchester...

A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and while he's drinking, the monkey starts jumping all over the place. The monkey grabs some olives off the bar and eats them, then grabs some sliced limes and eats them, then jumps up on the pool table, grabs the cue ball, sticks it...

Alinwa? I haven't seen any posts by him for a while.

Maybe ..... ...it's the way your extractor is engaging certain cases that is causing the stiff feeling when you close the bolt.

With all due respect, when I asked the question, there was no mention of a problem with the rifle. The post after my question revealed that the rifle was having problems with "hot loads". I understand the concept of bushing the firing pin hole but, even in the Gre-tan video he cautions that...

Just being nosy...... Why do you have the need of a smaller firing pin? What do you feel you will gain?
