I only have experience with Jewell triggers for benchrest rifles so please take this into consideration when you read my advice. A couple of things may be causing the trigger not to reset. One is grease or oil on the sear surfaces of the bolt and/or the trigger. Another is a weak trigger return...

I run them at 125-250 RPM. I drill and straight bore first (I do not have a taper attachment)

Dear Rflshootr, I have used both HSS and carbide reamers. I prefer my latest reamer which is a 6PPC .268 nk. carbide one. I find that I don't have to run the reamer at 1 zillion RPM to get a good finish in the chamber. The one downside to a carbide reamer is that pesky wire circle clip used to...

Dear JWV, It is my opinion that humans will actively seek out pleasurable substances or actions be it Fentanyl, love, religion, marijuana, ethyl alcohol etc. From a medical standpoint I think marijuana is probably less harmful then many other drugs such as alcohol and certainly less harmful...

One of the developments in the study of mental illness that has been of the relatively recent inclusion of and study of sociopaths and psychopaths. These are groups of individuals with a common trait of a lack of empathy towards other people. We used to call them mean people or other names...

Thanks Al. Unfortunately I plan on getting my gender change surgery so I can be a women among men just like my gender change hero Speedy.o_O

That was a great video and captured Stan well. I am wondering did Stan pass away or merely quit shooting? I sincerely hope it was the later. He is one of my heroes in benchrest,

Francis, Would you please elaborate on your statement that this powder is not really 8208? I am curious as to the true origin of this powder. Thank you.

David, How many times must I tell you. I am not into sheep (literally) like you and Smallwood. If truth be known I really dig octopi. I mean 8 arms all with suckers, 9 separate brains; what is there not to like? Most men I know should spend some time dealing with 9 separate brains. They then...

I subscribe to the John Horn theory of benchrest. Anything that you can standardize is one less variable you have to worry about. I clean the exterior of my necks, run a stiff nylon brush through the neck, size, trim often but not any less then one yardage and go for it. I have just started to...

This weekend the last match of the year for the Gulf Coast will be shot. It is the LV HV world famous cotton bowl match in Lubbock, TX. The match is well named as Lubbock is in the largest cotton growing region of the US. One thing I can state from prior experience is that the nicest people in...

A husband on his deathbed requested to his wife that he be buried in his favorite brown suit. She visited the morgue to make sure this was the case. There she found out that her husband was wearing a blue suit and the body next to him was wearing the brown suit. She threw a fit and the mortician...

If your stock is painted you might want to carefully run a razor blade between the paint and the action. This might prevent the action from ripping bits of paint off when it comes off. I have used the iron method and it works great. It is more difficult to get the iron to stay on a round action...

Joe was a person who showed up at every match. He never would accept any physical help despite being limited in mobility. He also would never accept any advice despite not shooting well. He was a nice person and a true Texan: stubborn, persistent, friendly, taciturn and looked old as dirt but...

Me too I know what you mean. My wife also says I have a dirty mind.

Thank You Once again thanks to all of you for your help. It is much appreciated.

Great! Thank you for your answers. I will try the 45 cal. carbide die first. I have that one already. I might also purchase a small base .308 die. It may come in handy later on.

Just Kidding Please view my post as satire. In no way am I trying to critize Mr. Antelopedundee. I truly enjoy his posts and his sense of humor.

I have a number of 30 BR cases in which the base of the case is too large. These were used cases I purchased. I remember that we used a 41 magnum pistol die to remedy this situation on PPC cases a long time ago. Does anyone know of a similar fix for 30 BR cases?

Cinch up your belt. Gird your loins. The Buffalo LV and HV match is coming the 15-16 of April to the scenic wonderland of Midland TX! Play chicken with large trucks carrying massive oil field machinery. Smell the oil patch. Taste the dirt. Dodge the rattlesnakes. Get grass burrs in your...
