if you intend to go mono/lead free stick with the 110grn type.....you need speed and that seems to be good balance with good expansion. I did what you do for years...pretty much still do,pick a...

:thumbsup: So true. What makes me laugh is all the press going to 260, 6.5 PRC, Needmore and Grendell. While the 25-06 is run down as a yesterday calibre. 270 is the same. The only people that hate...

One theory is that when your picatinny rail is made of steel, it expends at the same rate as the receiver therefore having less chances of inducing stress during variation of temperatures. Also,...

Steel is definitely stiffer than Aluminium. Physics say so. Unlike strength, which can vary from grade to grade or even coil to coil, Young’s Modulus is constant for a given metal and is...

Why would you reduce the clamping area of the steel ring rather than keep it at optimum and just thin out its section? that makes no sense. I have never had an optilock or leupold steel mount move...

Hi there, I would disagree on two points. firstly, steel is definitely not the stiffer of the two. It is well accepted that when it comes to bicycle materials, steel frame offers a more...

Aluminium is generally softer than steel. We are talking about clamping something soft (aluminium rings) to something hard (steel receiver). There are many possible variables, but the gist of it...

There are more than just two mechanical advantages of steel over aluminium, and like anything there are differences in aluminiums and steels. Another reason steel is used for barrels is heat...

Steel has 3 times the density of Aluminium. That means, for the same volume/physical size, steel weighs 3 times more than aluminium and is stronger than aluminium (but not 3 times stronger). On the...

When i broke the wrist on my 30-30 i took it to a cabinet maker. He said me might try and put a dowel in it but ended up just gluing it. That was in 1999 and it's still holding together fine.
