    Bridgeport mill question?? pics here

    I would recommend getting a rotary phase convertor (RPC) control from someone like WNY http://www.wnysupply.com/ and finding a 3 phase motor on craigslist to use with it, this 3 phase motor is called an idler. Through the control box you supply 220 from your box and get out 3 phase that will...

    Rail Gun Plans

    Hello, I had a rail gun lined up for purchase for supporting a new wind estimation setup similar in features to the OneShot program, but found in a weird phone call today that had fallen through. A rail gun will be used for high accuracy shooting when testing and evaluating the system. The...

    260 remington

    I have shot all of the 6.5's except for the 260 dues to inability to get Lapua parent brass and since that is no longer an issue I would hard at it. I love my 6.5 x 47 L and have convinced a number of shooters around me to use my reamer to build 6.5 x 47 L and all really shoot. The bottom...

    Barrel weight per inch?

    In my message I forgot to state that you need to enter the density of the steel you are using, as an aid I included the densities from Lilja as stated in an earlier post. Using the density of stainless steel my estimate for the weight of the 3.009 inch piece of your barrel is 15.69 ounces which...

    lr308?

    You can have a lot of fun shooting F-class to 600 yards, these matches are called midrange, matches at 800, 900, and 1,000 yards are called long range. The rig would be able to hit the paper for midrange matches without a problem but the longrange matches may be a problem if you are shooting...

    Thinking About F Class

    You are shooting well enough to compets in Mich, if you were from Minnesota I would have told you F-class was recently outlawed by the state as I would not want to compete with (lose to) you as you really are shooting well. We seem to get a little mixed up when the term 168 g SMK comes up. It...

    Machining of Actions and Barrels

    I have spent some time with lasers, from small to very large lasers. A laser in the power range you are talking about is a class 3B laser which would require licensing from the FDA. The diode laser modules are available for sale with out a license but as soon as you build a complete laser it...

    New TOYS!

    I quit chew a little over 20 years ago, a tin a day and no spitting, very few people knew I chewed. It was hard at the time and to this day I still occasionally dream about a good dip of Cope. I knew if I had a dip today they would plant me with a full fresh roll in the pine box with me as I...

    coaxial rest-Shadetree Eng. needs your input

    21" at 50 yards would give me 420 inches at 1,000 yds. This range of motion at 1,000 or 500 yards for that matter would probably lead to a loss in precision. I use your current rest top for F-class and love it but if I had a large reduction in precision it would not be of use to me. Maybe two...

    Montana Rifleman

    I was also told the barrels were first quality otherwise I would not have made the purchase. I understand you get what you pay for, I figured I would make a gamble and maybe get a barrel goo enough for practice to save my F-class barrels some wear.

    Montana Rifleman

    Not expecting much from your own product and letting customers know is amazing. I do not another barrel manufacture that would not try to get people think they could get 1 MOA out of their barrels. On the other hand the guy is honest because expecting better than 1 MOA from the barrel is a...

    Montana Rifleman barrel I just got one of the barrels I bought from MR installed and chambered in 308 Win. I bought three of the barrels and will not even pay to have the other two installed as the accuracy of the 308 is so poor. I contacted Shane at Montana Rifleman and here is part of his...

    6.5 wsm

    It was a great round for me until about 550 rounds and then the accuracy was gone. I love the 6.5's the next ones I will be working on are a couple of 6.5 x 55 AI's one on my F-class rig and one for deer hunting. wade
