Re: Sako L461 varmint stock - DIY

Very clever
I am as impressed with you jigs as much as I am with the stock
That is some work to be truly proud of
Am I correct that you bedded the action while you still had a "block" of wood with just the action and barrel channel milled out?

Re: My turn for a bargain...

Great pick up.
Swifts are always great shooters.
Check out power pro 2000 powder....no point running ethanol infused low octain fuel in a V12 engine!
Looks good to me. Enjoy

Ruger no1 gunsmithing

I have a ruger no 1 that is not ejecting cases, spent or still loaded. It apears that wen the lever is lowered, the extractor slips slightly sideways instead of pulling straight back and thus slips it's grip on the case rim thereby not ejecting the case from the chamber. Wen the breach block is lowe...

Re: Win 45gn Hp Projectiles

Ha ha cheers. That is a very generous offer. I actually ordered some today. Can't be that bad and for the money they will work for me. I only want them for a 22k hornet which I use on farm and under light.
Yep I'll give you a report wen I get going.
