I've been doing my own work since the mid 90's. When you shoot benchrest, barrels are a component. Between the cost of having the work done, and the wait time, many shooters are doing the same thing. Once you start winning some matches, people start asking to have their barrel done. So I got a...

You need to know the brass thickness in the neck to know what the loaded round diameter is. You say the brass you have is .337". Is that with bullet seated?

Looking for bullets 52 to 55 grain benchrest grade bullets. Will consider Berger, otherwise hand swaged such as Barts, Bibs, Cheeks or similar.

Thanks all for the info. He is sending me bullets, then I'll reload.

I have a Fedex depot closer than a UPS. So I tell them it is live ammo, and they take care of it?

I want to load a couple 20 round boxes of 308 for my nephew and send them to him. Is there an issue sending them with the Post Office? Or do I need to send via UPS or Fedex? Or?

I did the reverse. My nephew bought a HS Precision stock for a SA Remington. And he bought a Borden Mountaineer action. These stocks have the bedding block in them, but I always skim bed anyway, and I did the same for the Borden. Differences are, the Borden has a wider loading port, a side bolt...

Like new condition, no marks, fine crosshair. Original owner, have box, lens covers and slip on covers. $825 shipped in CONUS. Can email pics. Prefer PO MO.

So I've avoided these ARs for all this time. I have a couple Mini14s if I have the need to spray and pray. But with the atmosphere of today, I'm thinking maybe I should get one if nothing else for spite of the administration. So which is a decent buy? Not looking for the latest and greatest...
