Hans----- Since you began by saying that you are somewhat handy, one of the easiest things that you can do to accurize a rifle is to bed the action. By that, I mean, from the recoil lug to just forward of the chamber. If it is not bedded now, I'm sure that you will see some improvement in the...

That's an old scope, as evidenced by the anodizing. If you send it into Leupold, they with send you a new scope of similar type and value. I don't know if you can negotiate the replacement, but you can ask. Remember, Leupold scopes have a lifetime warranty. If and when you ever need a...

You know, I'm kind of cautious to answer your question because you're framing it in a way that will use my examples as an exception. My reason for citing my and many others' problem with Wolf primers is to inform readers of a problem I know exists. Cartridges I have used them in include, 6BR/...

All the guns, powders, and cartridges I've fired them with have had no problems with any other primer. I'm not sure what that would have anything to do with hang fires. Either it goes bang or it doesn't. The problem with the Wolf is that it goes bang a second after you squeeze the trigger. I...

Back to the original post, I agree with rsmithsr, there is a lot of BS on the net. Frankly, there is a lot of BS on this site. As to Wolf small rifle magnum primers, I would stay away for them. Problem is, they hangfire. Some said, yes they do but only with spherical, some said yes they do...

......is Saubier is ever coming back? It's been down quite a while?

I haven't read every post in this thread, I have my own theory on why there have been so many shootings by relatively young people in recent times. It's not about "crazy" per se or the availability of guns. It's about every issue in our society that feeds into a polarizing narrative. The press...

Thanks for your replies. I've used these primers before and have found no differences in any way with their performance. As far as I'm concerned, I don't see any reason why the CCI Br4 primers should be double the price of the Winchester primers. I don't know if the price difference is the...

I stopped at Cabela's in Reno yesterday and was drawn to the counter where the primers were located. No surprise that there wasn't any deals being offered but, my observations brought up this question. They offered CCI small rifle benchrest primers for $155/1000. There were also Winchester...

A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and while he's drinking, the monkey starts jumping all over the place. The monkey grabs some olives off the bar and eats them, then grabs some sliced limes and eats them, then jumps up on the pool table, grabs the cue ball, sticks it...

Alinwa? I haven't seen any posts by him for a while.

Maybe ..... ...it's the way your extractor is engaging certain cases that is causing the stiff feeling when you close the bolt.

With all due respect, when I asked the question, there was no mention of a problem with the rifle. The post after my question revealed that the rifle was having problems with "hot loads". I understand the concept of bushing the firing pin hole but, even in the Gre-tan video he cautions that...

Just being nosy...... Why do you have the need of a smaller firing pin? What do you feel you will gain?

Layman's quesstion First of all, I would classify myself as a layman's layman, but I find myself drawn to these discussions because they are so interesting. I mean I read the rudder shaft thread backwards and forwards. Maybe it was just the pictures. Same here maybe. Some things were...

If he had bought $40 worth of tickets and not won a single raffle, would someone in the crowd give up their chance at a prize so he could win one? You pays your money and you take your chances. Nothing about greed at all in this situation.

Fyi Well, I received my replacements on 6/25. That's a lot faster than I was expecting. They do have a definite different appearance than the 1st batch I had. Thanks to Berger for their attention on this situation and special thanks to Stephanie for her concern and help.

I bought 3 boxes of this lot from Powder Valley to try out. I called Berger on Friday 5/25. They took my name and contact info, told me to put my bullets aside, and they would get back to me when they decided what they were going to do. While I commend them for trying to do something, I still...

As an update to help anyone else that is contemplating a reticle change to any Leupold scope. I sent my 36X Leupold BR scope to them on Apr. 2nd for a target dot reticle. They called me on the 12th to ask me what size dot I wanted and to secure payment(which was by credit card). They offer...

I have a Cooper 6BR. In my opinion, the best die is a Lee collet die. Just send them 2 fired cases and 2 bullets that you are intending to load. They will make you a collet die. Read the directions when setting up the die and you will have no problems. Read this thread paying particular...
