    NEWS FROM THE TUNNEL, Barrel Indexing

    Al- Gene- - I think a recoil lug like Remington's [only ground parallel] would solve that issue. Gene, are you going to furnish recoil lugs with 7/8" ID holes with your kits? Steve Moore

    NEWS FROM THE TUNNEL, Barrel Indexing

    Gene-Jerry What with you guys being buddy's, has there been any discussion about making an action with a larger receiver ring to facilitate a larger thread diameter for a bushing? Or is this something Jerry wishes I hadn't mentioned? The Moore I think about it, it maby would sell. Besides, it...

    Lynn- If You took the bushing out, you would have to cut off the bbl tenon and rethread to 18 tpi, shorter bbl, different harmonics, maby having to start all over again! My thought is shoot it till it doesn't then start with a new bbl, same bushing set up, then make "time" for a "nooner" with...

    Jerry stiller was right !!!!!!!!

    Well now wait a minute, Keith- My calculator only goes 6 didgets to the right of the decimal point. I should have been moore exact!! BUT you ripped my heart out and kicked it around in the sand when you didn't bust two of the other posters on the 28 tpi= .035714 ", Not .037", Not .038"...

    Jerry -- For only a small 100th of that amount I will part with my beloved '79 Triumph Bonny Special. It would look good on you. Mmmm, that was cash, wasn't it? Steve Moore

    Jerry stiller was right !!!!!!!!

    Gene, Jerry- Since this is a new thread, tell me if I get one of the 15 letters or a phone call. I'm not being one of the funny people, few people even understand my atempt at humor, even less appreciate it. Am I even close? I got busted for about fifty- millionths, plus or minus. Actual...

    Getting Moly completely out????

    Don't know- About the bore, I am not disputing Bob Dodd, I just havn't tried it there. [Dawn soap]. If you moly your own, Dawn will remove it from the toilet seat, the white wall phone, the doors between the shop and the house, and the refridgerator you keep your beer in. YESSS, moly may cause...

    Yeah, what you said Al- Either you think it's worth it, or you don't. I'm retired now, over 30 years service as a Union Carpenter. [almost got "20 years" when younger though] I have the time and patiece and inclination, and it beats doing honeydoos for the wife. Moments-20 minutes [real time]...

    NEWS FROM THE TUNNEL, Barrel Indexing

    Keith the bbl shoulder still mates up the action face. Any shims between these "faces" will change head spacing. I think we are trying to rotate the bbl to change the angle of the dangle of the bbl without changing the head space. I don't know where you could put shims to change one without...

    NEWS FROM THE TUNNEL, Barrel Indexing

    Ok,- Make the bushing 18 tpi outside, 28 tpi inside. make the bushing .111" shorter than the bbl tenon. Counter bore if needed for unthreaded portion of bbl tenon. You could notch the front of the bushing for a spanner wrench or make a tool threaded same as bbl, only longer to accept a jamb nut...

    NEWS FROM THE TUNNEL, Barrel Indexing

    Gene, Jerry- Is correct. The internal & external threads have to be different. Picture the bushing with the same pitch threads in the action, locked with a set screw. [sight base screws have really locked a bbl. in the past] If the bbl. clocks up at 9 o'clock, you remove the bbl., adjust the...

    fl sized brass chambers TIGHT

    I'm guessing it isn't broke, just over fixed-- S.W.A.G.- either large chamber or short on the minimum side of spec's for die. You load enough we can sort it out. Does your sizeing die have S B after the cartridge designation? [S B = small base] Measure your cases, new, once fired, and f/l...

    Neck clearance?

    WHAT jACKIE SAID+ With out going out and measuring brass and/or reamer I think my .260" has a .296" neck. Domestic brass wont clean up without excessive neck clearance in my opinion. If you neck .308 Lupua down to .260, you will gain approx. .001" per side, .002" total in diameter...

    fl sized brass chambers TIGHT

    Silence-- It Isn't Broke But it may be expensive to fix it. By that I mean if you keep buying f/l dies trying to fix the problem that may not exist with sizeing it can get expensive. I shoot a XR100 in 22-250, as well as 4 other various and asundry 22-250's. I have 5 different sets of dies from...

    primer pockets getting tighter? why?

    One Mans Trash, Another Mans Treasure!! Years ago Alvin Davidson and I had a conversion about the primer pockets getting loose on the then available Sako 220R brass. [late-late 70's early 80's ?] We both decided the cure would be to convex the bolt face. Neither Alvin or I decided how much or...

    Firing pin Problems?

    Shootin' - - after checking all the above sugestions if not resolved, check your unfired case length versus your "GO" gauge length. There may be a problem there that just seating a bullet long will NOT cure. A secondary shoulder/doughnut might keep the case head against the biot face. Steve...

    Neck Turning..............

    Ultra Mitutoya ball anvil / tubeing mic. is good. You need one with .0001" [one ten thousands"] resolution. You could measure the neck while on a snug mandril of measured diameter with an outside mic. There are some nice "neck checkers" out there, but bring your wallet, some are expensive. Don...
