I contacted the seller and he said there is no way he sent the wrong barrel and that my action is the issue. I handed it off to a local smith today to look at and hopefully clean up. His thoughts were that if he ran a tap and die over all the threads, I would be back in business. I will keep...

It was 28 degrees out so that might be why it was a little slower. My chrono has been accurate up to date and the 7wsm rounds I fired were showing me that the chrono was still working.

I tried some IMR4350 with some 165 hot cors this weekend and got really low speeds. 57.4-2612/57.7-2592/58-2625. I didn't have pressure signs. Woud you keep climbing or switch to something else? I have some RL22 and H4350. Thanks

ShadeTree, is correct, I attempted to thread the barrel. I had the barrel in the vice, started the action with the wrench. I'm guessing I made 3-5 spins with the wrench and started hearing/feeling something wrong, so I backed it off and found the damaged threads on the barrel. After that, I...

I have the order recipt and it is Rem700. I called and tolk them what I had for a donar rifle and did the order over the phone.

Let's say a guy ordered a Remage barrel and after attempting to put it on a Rem 700 action the barrel threads are now messed up. After researching and talking to a gunsmith it is determinted that a Savage barrel was shipped. The barrel was going on with some resistance then suddenly became...

Thanks for the link Guy. I'm going to wait on NM for when I retire. I need to stick a little closer to WI due to work and travel times.

Does anyone have an outfitter for elk in Montana that they would recommend? Thanks

I'm looking for 7-08 brass and found some PRVI in stock. Just wondering if this is good stuff?

I have the wrenches already. I'm looking at a Criterion 7-08 barrel. They have a 24", 1:9 twist sporter barrels in stock.

I have a Rem 700 I would like to rebarrel to 7-08. I have most of the tools to put on a prechambered screw on barrel. At the end of the day, it would be about $600 to get a 22" barrel on the action if I did it myself. I could also send it to a respectable company and have them spin on a new...

I'm sure it was bought prior to 1985-1990.

This past summer my buddies dad called me and said he had a Rem 700 bull barrel in 6mmRem that can't shoot a decent group and wanted help. I got the rifle and cleaned it really well, put a newer scope on it and took the factory ammo he had to the range. At 100 yards, I shot a 4"/3 shot group. I...

I have a TriggerTech and bullets on the way. I grabbed some 165 Hot Cor bullets to try as well. The 30-30 is ready to go with 160 Hornady bullets. That was an easy rifle to get set up.

Awesome stuff. Looks like I need to try RL26 with my 180 Partitions!!!

It has been a while since I've posted. Life has been busy. I want to share my next to reloading adventure with the group. The first rifle is my dad's Rem 700 Mnt Rifle. He has had it for a number of years and has shot Fushion ammo with good luck. In the past few years, he has been using...

Congrats!!! I'm really liking the .25 cal more and more every year.

Nice work young man!!! I'm very happy for you and the crew. You will have memories that will last forever!!!

He likes the 30-06 but wants a new rifle.

He currently has a Savage 30-06 and he will be shooting factory ammo. His budget is $1500 for rifle/scope.
