    Turning the outside of the muzzle end for the tuner, effect on inside diameter ?

    Simple concept, true OD to ID at a new established point.....The crown. Kind of hard to stomach putting the time and energy of finding the best place to crown, dialing it in, and executing the best crown possible all to stick a tuner on the end of that in a crooked or offset way by not...

    Lathe

    I have been using a Precision Mathews 1340GT for a couple years now and really like the lathe. The VFD and proximity switch would be nice additions to my lathe but I have gotten by without them so far. Something I may add later. The whole group and Precision Mathews is great to deal with and...

    Crowns

    I agree that the angle, recessed or not, or flat doesn't really make much of a difference. Just that it is indicated in well. I also agree the 5-10 thou 45° chamfer right at the bore/crown intersection is the easiest and most durable way of cutting a quality crown for any rifle. Regardless of...

    Anyone from Mid TN?

    I am on the opposite side of middle TN, but as a whole mid TN is a great place to be in the middle of a bunch of great ranges to shoot at. Especially if you are willing to travel a little ways to shoot. Other than Oak Ridge and Chattanooga which are good places to shoot ARA matches run by great...

    rimfire actions

    Awesome job on the actions! They look very nice. Alot more work goes into making one than we all appreciate at times. Certainly not an easy task. Triggers look nice as well. Tim beat me to asking if they are setup on 90° triggers or not. Excellent job! Tad

    My new lathe - Precision Matthews PM1340

    PM 1340GT After a years use After using our 1340GT Precision Mathews for a little over year now (took delivery of it new 01/2019) I have been nothing but pleased with how it has performed. After initial setup, I checked the run out at the spindle nose and subsequently after every oil change and...

    Removing Burrs from Chamber Leade 22 rf

    Using a lap is probably the most accepted way to finish up after cutting the chamber on Rimfire stuff but everyone has their own black art way of doing it. Some just let it go and accept that it will take 1-3k rounds to clean up(stainless barrels) on it's own but who has the time for that. Alot...

    Data needed for rebarreling a Hall rimfire

    Cone breech? The only way I can think of would be to cone breech it and still some consideration would need to be given to the angle at which the cone was made so as to not have contact. Tad

    DiOrio Turbo V3/Shilen Straight .900

    That looks like a competitive rifle. The contour looks a little closer to R5 to me though but I dont know. Wish I could shoot that beautiful rifle some. Looks like some nice flags and rest you have there as well. Tad

    short barrels

    24 inch I know some smith's will always cut a barrel to 24" or close to it if possible from the blank. Their thinking is that they have a very close tune number that works at that length that they shouldn't be but just a few clicks of the tuner away if the barrel will shoot. I understand this...

    Precision Machine 1340GT Lathe

    We just received a 1340gt 3 phase at the beginning of the month and it is a pleasure to run. I am still getting used to operating it vs the old barcorp 1430 I had been using before. It's taking some getting used to on how much smoother everything operates. I was impressed with how close...

    New lathe questions (chucks and QC setup)

    I make a lot of my parts from fresh stock and this is something that gets overlooked by newer people including myself when I first started. You start hunting for parts and tools with the best(low) runout repeatability and overlook this aspect. It is good to hunt for the best tooling and parts...
