I made a pair over 7 years ago and am still using them today, for some reason, l can't wear ear muffs there are the way when shooting.

Witness mark the barrel and action before taking the 308 barrel off the action, then witness your new setup once it is headspace and torque this way you could do a quick change should you want to go back to the 308, l have seen that done in competition shooting changing out barrels.

What make the brass a factory 2nd?

l knew that was the problem, Forster trying to save some pennies.

Blueing on stamped parts is usually an indicator of it being made of spring steel or tempered steel. what is shown in the picture looks to be made from mild steel the way it beat up. So it seems the older machine have a blued plate. l'm speculating that that could be the problem newer machines...

l would be happy with that target from a stock rifle, what ammo did you use.

l would say he did, at about frame 140 in slow motion, the crow caught sight of something coming at him the bird hunched down to push off and fly.

l almost bought a 220 swift back 1975 just to shoot but never did had friends that bought them, in 1976 got interested in chuck hunting but bought a Savage 112V single shoot but in a 22-250 That rifle is in my avatar. My father never hunted l picked up hunting form from friends reading stories...
