Lee, you just have to make your brass by fire forming rather than necking it up over a mandrel. Requires a dedicated FF barrel, but you chamber your own, so that shouldn't be a problem. The most consistent that I've found it to just let a cheapie 6mm bullet rattle down the barrel. Greg J.

You'd also benefit from bedding the action in the stock. You can do it yourself. If it isn't on pillars now, I'd suggest adding them. The barrel is almost always most important, though. Aside from the rifle, good optics, wind flags, front rest and rear bag are all very important. As things...

EKP, I don't think that you're going to be able to tune that factory rifle much more. If it was me, I'd save my money, put a custom barrel on it, bed it and put in a Jewell trigger. Or, better yet, build or buy a rifle on a M700 clone action.

Did you mean 15 thou off the lands?

A power screw driver with a K&M or other case holder chucked up will do fine. A variable speed drill is OK, but is hard to keep it slow enough.

A nice young fellow that I bought barrels from bought the molds. He was trying to get into business. He had good ideas and a good record with customer service with barrels. I think they perhaps he ran into unforeseen problems. It's a gap out there right now. If someone had the money, the...

Don't think that it's anything as bad as these, but here ya go http://www.cracked.com/article_17686_the-8-most-ill-conceived-product-names-all-time.html

Thank you, Dusty. I appreciate it. How long is the barrel? Profile? What kind of stock? 8 twist for the 104-108 class bullets?

What would you build for a 300 yard rifle, 25 lb weight limit, no barrel or stock profile rules. The format allows no wind flags, no sighters and the range has tricky winds. There is often considerable haze such that bullet holes are hard to see. The target has generous size scoring rings...

I've been told they the new blue box brass doesn't clean up 100% till cut for a 330. I do not know first hand having a life-time supply of gold box. If nothing else, prep,as for,a 330 and deal with it. I did that, by accident, in the first batch of brass for my 332 neck 30 Major and did very...

What is the significance of the name "StaMoly". The first visceral reaction is that it has something to do with molybdenum disulfide. Please say it ain't so!

Come on, folks! Clean the dang barrel, give it a little corrosion protection and party on. We've all been doing this since we were in elementary school. Do not let OCD take you away from what's important.

Just thinking out loud, what happens to the body if you bump the shoulder back with the body of the case not supported?

OK. Thanks. Think I found it. http://www.killoughshootingsports.com/index.php/scopes/weaver-scopes/weaver-t-series-xr.html Was confused by not listing a 48 power.

Shoot me a link! I've been on his site and didn't see anything.

Some people use a *dry* lube on the inside of necks. Like this...

Heard about them from Mike E. Maybe Killough has them. I can't find anything on them anywhere.

Varmint profile stock. Use a "bag rider"/"accuracy asset" kind of thing when you shoot from a bench. Kind of like this: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/645901/egw-bag-rider-ar-15-fits-free-float-tubes but not for an AR, obviously. If twas me, I'd pillar bed.

Ah. Thank you for the explanation. The 6 BR is an excellent choice. I think that, as others suggested, a well-built custom varmint rifle is the way that you want to go. Tolerances and scopes were mentioned. Another thing that I'd say is that the 3" wide, flat forearm on our rifles would be...

I've sold (pretty cheap!) a couple of 6 PPC barrels to friends that wanted to set them back and make 6 BR varmint barrels. Seemed to meet their needs. As mentioned, most folks want to shoot longer/heavier bullets in the 6 BR. That requires a faster twist rate (1:10 for the mids, 1:8 for the...
