Thank you Kevin for chiming in! Much appreciated. I’ve always appreciated your willingness to share. Thanks Keith

Tony, look at George's post in the ARA National thread. There is a print of the reamer. I did not have one or know what it called for. All I knew was what I had read that he preferred .030 engraving. I read it online! See post #13 http://benchrest.com/showthread.php?104523-ARA-Indoor-Nationals...

My reamer does not have a stop. A PTG Match reamer I have does. It shows a .630 length. Up until I did this last barrel it is what I'd had a little success with. Shot Eley much better than the Lapua. It too has the 1 1/2 deg. leade. Keith

Tony, I believe I read Kevin's remarks about how much he was engraving bullets on Stiller's site. Search either Chambers or Lapua?? I'd also read Lee's remarks on it as well. I can see the engraving on the lot of Midas I have but it ain't much. I'm trying to get a decent picture of it & thats...

I used a "Nevius" reamer on the last barrel I did & have .035 engraving on the lot of Midas I was using at the time. Shoots Eley fine. Keith

Chambering a rimfire barrel is not difficult. Its pretty basic machining. The art is knowing where, & the finishing of it. I do not finish a chamber because, well,, I do not know how. The barrels all seem to shoot fine however I've always felt I've left something on the table.All you ever get or...

I've thought about this for several days now. While I try to be open minded to new ideas & have no real issue with 275 scoring, I too feel the same as the rest. I'm not in favor of a change to IR50 as we know it. Any 275 matches should be left for "fun" or" money" matches imo. I've been apart...

Bet we see him/ it in Luray next weekend. That’d be a good test for it. Keith

Butch, if you have a set of Kelbly's dovetails for instance, you can mill .030-.050 (don't remember) off the bottom of them. Otherwise I have a set of 30mm Kelbly's that fit on my Anschutz you're welcome too. Keith

Three potential IR50 Sporter 10 Shot records were shot last night at the Maine State match. Bruce Hornstein shot an outstanding 114 on the last card. Current record is 108. Also he & Tony Picarelli each shot 248's with Tony edging him out on the higher 1st card. Current record is 244...

I drove 50 hrs over the last 2 weekends to WV & PA mainly to compete with the sporter, see friends & meet others. I guess its how bad you want to. I want to. You have 20 sporter cards 8/13-8/15 being shot in Boothbay, 30 minutes away, shooting the IR target, lunch provided Finish the gun & come...

I like the Begg's style probes best as the cups can be set at the same height as your flags. Also I feel like their easier to see. I own an small original & large model of the same design/quality. http://benchrest.com/class/index.php?a=2&b=12853 Keith

Pete, as you know I was so looking forward to returning to Salem this year. Always a great time! Take care of you! Keith

Not sure if you can get the BXA holders low enough. AXA is what I've got. I prefer my Enco 4 way tool post though with the exception of some of my tiny/round boring bars. Then the AXA-2 holder is handy. Great little hobby/2nd operation lathe, but imo just that. Keith

Butch, you can mill the bottom of say, Harrell’s or Kelbly’s to work for 11mm dovetails. Don’t remember how much exactly but think it’s around .050?. BKL makes decent inexpensive 11mm rings as well. Keith

There are a few of his cars here.. as well as others rides. http://www.rimfireaccuracy.com/Forums/showthread.php/12670-Hot-Rod-Cars-(read-before-posting)

I'm using a Mini Gator with straight Cordura ears. Have had a Gator as well as other bags with the angled ears I don't shoot any better/worse with the straight ones. I prefer the standard Cordura over the slick ears as it seems easier to conform to the profile of the stock better & stay that...

I had to make my own that ended up being 3.3oz on an . 850 barrel. A shaved the barrel on a friends Harrell's & it ended up in the 4.5oz range. They both work. How much weight are you trying to lose? Keith

Mike I agree with most of what you've said with the exception of the what precision guys have learned would no longer be useful. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but from the 100 yd shooting I've been doing I find that one needs to be more in tune with their flags/equipment. Mainly their tails...
