    Barrel break in true or not?

    I like your technique, I'm gonna give a try, just wondering how long you shake the chicken leg over the barrel?

    Barrel break in true or not?

    Ok, so I might have been off by a few years, but same point, don't damage your gun by cleaning it, no need to go crazy, just get the bad stuff off, a bore guide is a good thing, it's cheap, not complicated, and goes a long way at at just cleaning what you need too, mess up a land and it messes...

    Barrel break in true or not?

    I thought blue was good, but now I'm not so sure, but I can definitely say that a dark flat shade of green is awesome in your bedroom, but maybe the same would be true for red, **** it, you had to ask that!

    Barrel break in true or not?

    Don't forget that water will wear away anything pretty much, so don't hose out your barrel for more than a hundred years, in fact stop at about fifty years, your barrel will thank you, as far as I'm concerned if you got a crappy barrel, nothing will make it good, get a good barrel, just keep it...

    Barrel break in true or not?

    I shoot 500 to 1000 rounds through my 10/22s, custom before I clean, one kidd, I only do it cause accuracy seems to fall off, didn't even clean when I first got it, just fired it and it's been incredibly accurate, .5 at fifty always, good ammo and ,25 or less, savage bolt 223 heavy barrel, under...

    Barrel break in true or not?

    I thought it was a pretty good article until the nylon brush thing, just got me thinking, is their something abrasive about nylon that I don't know about.

    Barrel break in true or not?

    I just do a quick clean with new gun with a patch and then shoot 25 to 50 rounds and clean again and have not noticed any improvement, guns that shoot good I keep and they stay good, but from that article you left I'm reading nylon brushes are bad and he gives example of fishing line wearing out...

    22lr, long or short barrel, which ones better

    I built a kidd gun with 16in heavy barrel, I chose 16in because from what I see that's where it gets max speed and starts to get slower any longer and also short Barrel would vibrate less, gun shoots great. Just picked up 10/22 with GM barrel, 24in stainless fluted Sporter, x22 stock, bx...

    Wandering 10/22 POI fixes?

    Range report, that 638 locktite works awesome, I actually took it apart and re- did it and measured barrel off flat surface on both sides and got it almost perfect, I bedded front of receiver better and barrel free floats, I'm getting many one hole, 1/8 to 3/16 groups, about 50 percent of time...

    Wandering 10/22 POI fixes?

    I ended up using a little 638 locktite, I noticed barrel had a little up and down movement with v block loose, I heated receiver so barrel would slide in easy and put some 638 lightly around barrel end, I think heat made it cure quick but after about 5 seconds the barrel was locked in, could not...

    Wandering 10/22 POI fixes?

    I contacted tactical solutions and they said 10 to 15 inlbs which is pretty in line with most other sources, 28 may be what works on that barrel with stock v block, I think it's probably a little different for what parts your using but thanks for info.

    Wandering 10/22 POI fixes?

    I have looked up torque specs many times on different forums and I get 10 to 15 on most, kidd says 10, but I would think these specs change if using a different v block as I looked up one replacement and it said 23inlbs, one says Ruger recommends 20 others say 10 to 20, I ordered a tactical...

    Reloading first time

    Right the headspace comparator is about making a safe load but it is absolutely about making accurate ammo also, just keeping the headspace the same reduces variables in ammo contributing to accuracy, that's our goal, make same bullet everytime, both to little and to much headspace can result in...

    Wandering 10/22 POI fixes?

    No it's in Magpul x22 Stock, gun does group very well, just moves around a bit, after bedding the barrel I seen improvement, sometimes will stay in last spot then other times move which I'm pretty positive is due to barrel receiver fit, when I took off barrel to receiver screws there was a tiny...
