    Cleaning Bat 3L bolt?

    What do you use to clean the fluted part of the bolt? I had some grime in there and put some wipe out on it. That was mis-stake as it settled really corroded looking. I was able to wipe most of it out but still looks grimy. thanks for any suggestions.

    I am installing a new B&A trigger on a new Bat 3L and am running into a similar issue. The trigger is right up against one side of the trigger guard. Any suggestions on a fix, if any? thanks

    Advice for a Rookie

    As a rookie to short range BR, am I better off either: 1. Shooting at as as many club and registered Benchrest matches as possible? OR 2. Shooting at a regular club by myself as much as possible and occasionally attending a club or registered Benchrest match? thanks

    New short range BR setup - Opinions wanted

    I've decided to stick with a similar setup so I am in search of a BAT 3L with a PPC bolt face. A few questions: 1. What is the significance of the "body shape" listed on the BAT spec sheet? Is the 1.350 Round the one I want for short range bench rest with the PPC? 2. Do the BAT 3 Ls come with...

    Trigger Hanger Help

    Action is Stainless Steel and they do appear to be 6-32 socket head cap screws. One of them looks stripped, maybe both. Where can I find a replacement? Local Ace Hardware did not have that type or size. thanks

    Trigger Hanger Help

    its a Scoville stock and the forward screw is a little tricky to get lined up right. I even removed the hanger and trigger and just tried getting the screw to catch (using both screws on the forward hole) and it will not catch.

    New short range BR setup - Opinions wanted

    This has all been very helpful advice. I'm probably leaning towards opening up to the flexibility of a PPC/BR action for the opportunity to shoot IBS targets with a 30BR. Do these actions offer that flexibility? I know that BAT does. I'm not sure that Marsh does.
