I would have to try all 4 and see which one fit my hand the best.

USSR, have you noticed the much touted "temp sensitivity" of RE22 in your 6.5X55? I'm using IMR 4831, but I've thought about switching to RE22.

At 100 yards or less, you'll never see the advantages that match bullets provide. They don't become obvious until you start stretching out past 400 yards. For 100 and under, a flat base will suite your needs for 1/2 the price. Flat base bullets also have an advantage in bores that are more well...

Frankly, this story is a great example of how constant situational awareness is your first, and best, line of defense. Allowing yourself the ability to extract yourself from a potentially dangerous situation, without having to resort to the use of force, or being in the danger zone. Eyes, ears...

If you don't want it, buy it and sell it to me. I had a chance to buy one years ago that was in very good condition, all matching, and I've kicked myself for years for not buying it.

My wife and I are considering moving to Seguin, TX in the next few months if everything works out. Is there anyone here who lives in the area that can tell my about several questions I have about Seguin and the San Antonio area. 1: Is it true that Seguin has a lot of crime and gangs? I've seen...

First let me say that I have never been a fan, or owner of the AK platform. I have shot AK's that friends have owned. Other than the reliability factor, they just never struck a chord with me. But with that being said, personally, I like this new incarnation. I think it's a long over due upgrade...

That is in really good shape. The pitting isn't bad. It looks like someone cut the stock where the pitting is to repair it. You could leave it that way or have someone try to finish the repair. Other than that, from the pictures, it is a nice looking piece. The old carbines like that are harder...

When you are dealing with a Mauser military chamber, failing a no-go does not mean it has excessive headspace. If it fails with a field guage, then it is excessive.

That's 8X57JS ammo on that Midway link. He is looking for 8X57J.

I would bed the action first, and keep the fore end contact. A good solid bed around the action will do wonders. If, after that, you don't see an improvement, which I doubt you won't, then try relieving the barrel channel. Those original stepped barrels, when they were in their original stocks...

At that price, if it's what you want, I'd jump on it. I love my Cimarron, but I've owned a Rossi as well, and I would buy another before another Cimarron just because they are much cheaper and still a really good rifle.

Bore snake.

I have mine in a B&C Medalist. I still skim bedded it around the action, and bedded the barrel under the chamber.

If it fits me well, and I can therefore use it well, and it proves to be reliable, that to me is what builds trust. Maker, model, and caliber, are inconsequential to those criteria. I've had several that made the cut, in different configurations, and calibers. I'm not a fan-boy when it comes to...

The first K98 I ever bought was really nice on the outside, but had a sewer pipe for a bore. You could have cleaned it every day for 10 years and never got it to shine again. It wouldn't shoot any milsurp ammo into what you would call a decent group. But load up some Speer 200 grain Hot-Cores...

The only way to my mind, that this could work, would be to use a straight pull design. BUT, you would have to move the bolt handle to the front of the bolt so it's position is more accessible. As far as the trigger though, a linkage is pretty much going to be required to keep it in a good...

I bought one of their 92 take down rifles. I love mine.

K98K forum, Surplusrifle forum, or if you can post good pictures, I used to collect Mauser rifles. I can try and help you out.

I was given a Turkish K. Kale 1941 marked rifle. The bolt isn't matching which I'm sure is why the head space is excessive. I was told that a no-go will chamber, but he didn't know if the smith had tried the field guage. Regardless, the barrel is in bad shape, especially at the muzzle. I had the...
