Heres my new toy , originally a titanium 7mm08 now a 6.5x47 lapua , had Abe rebarrel with a vulcan 22 inch no2 and had him thread for a can ,true the action, sort out the bedding, supply fit and lap new Talleys, bead blast and supply brass forster dies and sort out a load with 130 grain bergers which are doing 2860 . Rifle originally was a shit shooter - 60mm at 100m now in 6.5x47 at 200m just shot my first group measuring 0.400 of an inch! with a lightweight barrel STOKED!! Cheers Abe!
Yeah mate they got a terrible factory coating that needs to be sealed on with something grunty or replaced altogether... Mines been pulled apart, stripped clean and run through the anodizer thingy at Outdoor Supplies in Carterton. couple hundred dollars but it came up a wicked silky black that seems so far indestructible. I've attacked the stock with warehouse spraypaint and got a black rubbery grip, reckon it looks ok. Could do with a wee suppressor like that though!
Yet another accurate Vulcan barrel Abe! Poor old Adam, I reckon he was a copper miner in a previous life
Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
Probly enough up the barrrel afta 5 shots for a new one!!!
5 shots took two goes of 100 strokes with autosol to clean out lol thats worse than the trueflite i had!!
Be fukt im im goin thru the lapping and shooting more and more bull with this one like i did that last one!!!
Its a shitter!! I vulcan dont replace it as is ill be getting a trueflite ordered pronto!!
What makes certain barrels hold copper?
