Savage by name savage by nature. Seen much worse, that's pretty good IME.

If that method works for you that's great, but I found without the pilot there was still a small amount of chatter in the throat, now does it make a difference ?? I really don't know but as Jackie always says, double check the final product which I always do, and found the chatter in the throat...

What I meant was how do you deal with chatter in 5R barrels without the pilot ?? Matt P

How's that work out with 5R barrels ?? Matt P

I dial in on the top of the lands, ultimately that's what the pilot is going to run on and follow, but I do make sure the groove is concentric with the lands, you might be surprised how many aren't. Matt P

I have a 1340GT and a 1440GT, both great machines and great value IMO, the reason I added the 1440 was the 2" spindle. Matt P

That freebore will work with Hybrids but be a little short for VLD's, you'll need around the 0.220 for VLD's. Matt P

IMO yes, I always cut the threads a little looser than everything else. I can't give you reason why but I'm always more cautious with BAT actions. Matt P

I can tell you what the FO winner was using, Barnard action with Bartlien barrel chambered in 7SAUM. One rifle was using a custom alloy stock and the other a laminated both using V block bedding systems. Assembled by me LRP Solutions. Matt P

Bill Try taking out the rear screws and reassess, I had a similar situation recently and it ended up being the rear bridge "fell away" on the right hand side. So when tightened it would pull the back of the rail over to the right. I ended up bedding under the rear and all good. Matt P

March 10-60 for light gun and March 5-50 or 10-60 HM for heavy. I have a 10-60 and a 5-50 and it's one of the few things in this game that I never think about changing, unlike stock, caliber etc etc .....:confused: Matt P

Liseo The Barnard actions are very hard and don't lend themselves to modifying, I would contact them directly and see if it will suit your needs. http://www.barnard.co.nz/ContactUs.htm http://www.barnard.co.nz/images/Tech%20drawings/Model%20PLM%20Receiver%20info.PDF Regards Matt P

Alex Does the ball bearing contact the reamer ?? Matt P

JGS SAAMI spec reamer 0.295 Hornady brass with 130 Bergers 0.2895-0.291. Matt P

If you ask Kiff for a no turn reamer you'll get a 0.295" neck, but I've got loaded rounds here with 130 Bergers and they measure 0.290" plus or minus 0.0005". Hope that helps. Matt P

Hi All I have a Jewell trigger here that has an issue, No matter what action I attach it to the pin fall is reduced by a lot, no need to measure it's very obvious !!! This has all happened since he a blanked primer. I have pulled the cover off and inspected for broken levers or pins, seems ok...

Jackie The 9 twist shouldn't be a problem, I've chambered 100's for customers and never had a problem, I'd open up the neck clearance and try some 180VLD's, in my experience the VLD"s are much easier to live with than the Hybrids. A common load in this part of the world is around 50 grns of 2209...

Thanks John S Regards Matt
