    1 TURN will tune a barrel.... argument??

    True, a node cannot be moved to the end of a cantilevered beam, but it can be moved to the crown of the barrel. As for the behind the muzzle tuners, they work by changing the amount of displacement that gets propagated to the muzzle by adding mass and inertia to the mid anti-node.

    US Post lost my gun

    I was thinking that Benton had given up benchrest, or was that just the rimfires.

    US Post lost my gun

    Great news! Now, what range are you going to use to shake out the bugs at? Seeing as how you seem to be in my neck of the woods.

    The Un-Calfee Rifle

    Mount it on an X-wing and make parallel strafing runs. Guaranteed that no one on the receiving end will care. :D

    The Un-Calfee Rifle

    Servo driven mini-gun. That thing under the rear handle is "just" the spindle support - the barrel(s) point the other direction. Belt fed. 4000 rounds per minute. (give or take)

    The Un-Calfee Rifle

    Hell Bill, I can drive on snow fine. But here in Arkansas, we don't get "snow". It might come down that way, but 12 hours later it's mostly all turned to ice. The really bad thing is that we don't get enough of it to warrant snowplows, widespread salt/sand (just the highways) or studded tires...

    Stolen Rifle

    Hopefully, with it only being gone for a week of so, most of it will be repairable to some extent. Though, if it's been submerged for most of that time, that beautiful stock may be gone.

    alinwa the safety geek broke the rules tonite.....

    Al I may rib you about this, but I had a lathe "bite" me once as well. Cut middle through little across the inside of the middle joints to the tendons on all 3 on my left hand. Got in a hurry and tried to just pluck the curly chip out of the way...at about the same time it wrapped around the...

    The Un-Calfee Rifle

    You could throw a version of the VibeSlide tuner idea on it - tuned to Tonys PRX length. AS those tuners are based upon a Non-parallel node at the muzzle.

    Rail gun for AR uppers?

    No. That wouldn't be a very good "damper" at all. I quoted the portion that I was responding to. (Highlighted in red below) My take is that he part highlighted in green is that you are correct.

    Rail gun for AR uppers?

    They look like standard Thomson Rod bearings, in which case they use recirculating ball bearings.

    80% lower

    Right at this very moment (because markets can change quickly) - a stripped lower, or even some complete lowers, are so inexpensive that you won't save a lot going the 80% route. And 80% lower is going to be around $90 and a complete lower (Of comparable quality) will be $140 or so. Complete...

    question ?

    I think the Clymer website had a reamer print section where you could compare the two and answer that question.

    I'm not sure anyone has either Wilbur, but Stoney Point has certainly tried. http://billmcmichen.home.mindspring.com/StoneyPoint.htm

    Barrel Diameter vs Action Diameter

    There were a few economy 22s built that way back in t he 50's and 60's.

    question ?

    As I understand it, the 5.56 chamber has more freebore to keep the hotter pressures from spiking into dangerous ranges. Otherwise the chambers are the same. .223 chambers let the bullet get much closer to the land, too close for the hotter loaded 5.56 to deal with, particularly with the heavier...
