    ZERO Freebore

    I have a 16 inch 7.62 X 39 chambered barrel on my Savage Striker. I bought it long ago and I cannot remember the details or the mfr. I am pretty sure it was a Savage take -off. It has been fired by the previous owner enough to foul the barrel pretty good as I just noticed. The bore is 308 as...

    7.62 X 39 is really a 308

    Well, Having beat this to death, and my exhaustion, I finally have a feel for the situation. My original dilemma was "can I put a 308 bore on a 7.62 X 39" gun. Lots of good people have said "NO" because the 7.62 X 39 bullet is "oversize" and would be dangerous. That is certainly good...

    Has your gun ever been ridiculed? let's hear it

    My CZ 52 is the ugliest pistol in captivity. It shoots like a rifle and with store bought I "plink" gallon milk jugs at 100 yards. 50% hit. "Laugh all you want", I said. They also complain that the 52 is too loud to shoot at a public range but the Range Master asked "you guys do understand...

    Bullit OVERSIZE

    Another curious fact: The CZ model 550 comes in 7.62 X 39 and that's a bolt gun. CZ has a rep for accuracy out of the box. Their 7.62 X 39 is listed as having a bore of .311. That's a hunting rifle, now. Czech commercial ammo in that calibre is .308, as I said. John

    Bullit OVERSIZE

    From: RW, Here is m,y pickel.... I own a CZ VZ 58 Assault Rifle. Like everything Czech, it is special in many ways. Unfortunately, it is chambered in 7.62 X 39 but instead of the listed diameter bullet being 308, as Sierra says, it is bored to .3121. Just a tad oversize and, as you...

    Grease - What types and what for?

    Stop using any lube that isn't SYNTHETIC base. Grease or oil. Petroleum products will migrate OFF the metal and allow rust.....Syn will not. Guns lubed with petro base oil must be serviced every 6 months or so. Use syn and a year or more will be sufficient. Mobil 1 Full Synthetic ATF will...

    Best .22 Rifle Under $400

    I have shot the Marlin 60 for 15 years. Superb little gun and more accurate than it has any right to be. Plastic parts!!!! That being said I would highly recommend it. I smoothed the trigger and got the bolt release lighter with stones and files. Fun project but not really needed. Took a...
