The release agent with the acraglass kit is polyvinyl alcohol. a.k.a. PVA. It works well and is water soluable, beleive it or not. any form of petro wax will work also, as long as you have a few extra coats. I like to use Turtle wax with the "gel" acraglass kit.

Not a weatherby expert by any means but I will give you my thoughts since no one else is. I would guess it's a pre-64 or 65. The only action that Roy Weatherby ever made for himself was the Mark V (still built in US but the Vangaurd is a HOWA action out of Japan). Maybe someone who owns one can...

squakwacker and Jerry, There isn't much wrong with Savage. Its just cheap. The bullet smiths at Sierra will tell you that they have switched all of their testing over to Savages because Remington wouldn't back their product when they fell apart. I'm not bashing Rem, I own my fair share of them...

Haven't tried Bergers yet, or the Retumbo (have a pound but haven't shot it yet). I like 150grn Sierra (gotta stick with the home team) spbt's with IMR 4350 pushing them at 2900fps in my 9.5 twist. Still looking for the perfect load. I've heard the Retumbo is good stuff.

Re: www.live-shot.com [ QUOTE ] Hary, there is a difference between a disabled hunter and a lard assed lazy slob with a blood lust. I'm a lard assed lazy slob and I dont think it's right either. It's just for those who have too much money and never intend to eat anything that they kill. It's...

Cap Rock outfitters in Pampa TX. They have hunts all over outside of Amarillo. Tell Wayne you want to go to the JA Ranch down by Clarendon. It's all free range with big mulies and Auodad sheep. They do antelope and wild hogs also. They are a good bunch of guys.

That gun with magna-port, R3 recoil pad and a Dead Mule mercury filled recoil reducer kicks like a .243

I own a 110 in 7mag. I think that if you are set on a heavy contour barrel that you need to go to Shilen or Hart and have them install their own barrel on your gun. They do a mighty fine job at it and you can choose your round, SS or not, and muzzle break or not and some contours that are just...

Thanks Charles.

What a joke! It may help sporter contour barrels if it is in the perfect spot by changing the "node of vibration". I'll take 10 of those, two tasco pronghorns, and a pet rock

Not sure about the new accutriggers. But the old ones have three position safeties. full safety locks the bolt in place. Middle safety (half of the red dot showing) keeps the trigger from moving but lets you operate the bolt (without completely removing the bolt). The old ones can be adjusted...

I'm sure that someone can tell me exactly what the 6.8mm Rem. SPC is! I guess that it is a round that the government has requested, and Remington says they will be chambering it in production rifles after they fill the gov orders, but that is all I've heard. I assume it has potential because Rem...

If he likes the 460 I think he should get it. I personally think that you are comparing exciting rounds that are all great in their own right, but it's all kind of like comparing 308 to 300 win mag to 300 ultra mag to 7mm Shooting Times Westerner to ect. (left out the short mags, cause who needs...

It may not be an XP-100 but if you have all of your male body parts still attached you have to enjoy the thought of the new 460. I thought that the 454 and 500 were cool, but the 460 is the way that I would go. You will get your money back out of it if you decide you don't like it.

I like em heavy. What are you toting around now that's 12.5lbs? Gonna sell it?
