    jakewire liked post by gundoc On thread : Barrel thread
    The Remington M700 thread is 1-1/6"x16 (1.062" x 16) which is the same nominal thread as the Bergara and some other actions but that does not meant they are interchangeable. Barrel thread length,...

    Take it back to the guy who cut the thread, along with suppressor you intend to use. It is a simple job to repair, 15 minutes tops!

    caberslash liked post by gundoc On thread : Zero MOA rail/base - why?
    Zero angle bases are easier and cheaper to make. Most centrefire rifles are never used beyond 300 metres and .22's beyond 100 metres so there is absolutely no point in fitting an angled base as those...

    SixtyTen liked post by gundoc On thread : Mauser feeding and floorplate
    The back of the follower was left square in the original Mausers so it provided a solid stop to remind the soldier he was empty, but also pivoted the follower forward, bending the spring over time....

    johnd liked post by gundoc On thread : Wobbly Webley again
    A good Mk VI Webley will lock up tight when the action is cycled and the trigger held to the rear. A small amount of 'rock' is OK (about 5 thou each side). Wear in revolver timing generally occurs...

    Danny liked post by gundoc On thread : Any 7x57 Experts?
    I should add that I used to own a .275 Rigby but all I ever shot with it was a very large boar on the back face of Mt Grey, and a possum running along a fallen tree at 20 yards which, in the fading...
