    Boyds stock for Savage 340?

    I think you will be alright with that stock after you file/sand the notch in the bottom of the stock for the magazine. While it is true that the 30/30 or 225 Win (2.5" OAL) are longer than the 223 the difference in the OAL of the cartridges is only .25". I have never heard or seen a Savage 340...

    Mini 14 brass launching device with rifle accessory

    That just might be me :neener: I will agree with Sheepdog1968 ...I've never felt the need to make any modifications to a perfectly functioning rifle, to a point. I will modify it to make it a better functioning rifle, as long a reliability isn't compromised. The first mini I made gas...

    Ruger mini 14 barrel diameter

    the Target model's barrel diameter is the same as the O.D. of the flange at the gas block about .770" if I recall, it is continued that diameter until the threads are machined for the adjustable harmonic dampener, pretty heavy setup on the target model, I think the harmonic dampener alone is...

    Ruger mini 14 barrel diameter

    when Ruger retooled to produce the series 580 minis and after about the first 50,000 580 series mini's Ruger increased the barrel O.D. to .625" and put a flange in front of the gas block. The first about 50,000 580 series mini 14's had the same barrel O.D. as yours .560" but had the newer 3...

    Help with sight for a Winchester 94

    Worth noting both the XS sights and the Skinner sights have additional size rear peeps available for their sights. On the XS sights I believe they have peeps in .094" & 150" openings in addition to the supplied .191" and .230" peeps. The XS people are easy to deal with directly and should be...

    New Ruger mini 14 rifles are a 1 in 9" twist barrel. The Mini 14 changed from 1 in 7" sometime in 1997 and have been 1 in 9" since then.

    Ready to Give Up on Ruger Mini 14 Target Rifle

    Hey Luke, That would indicate a bedding problem on the stock receiver fit to me. The side to side fit of the stock to the receiver can be easily bedded. Mainly the bedding/shimming is done on the 2 flat sides on the front part of the receiver to eliminate the side to side play of the...

    New Mini-14/30 scope mount from Ruger

    Looks like that is the Amega Ranges Mini Scout Mount with the Ruger Logo on it instead of the Amega Ranges Logo. It's a good mount solid, It will also help dissipate heat from the barrel as well as function as a mount. It will add weight to the mini as it is heavier than the stock mount. Amega...

    New Sights for Ranch Rifle and Mini 14

    I think it will fit on the hump behind the integral rear scope mount. The rear sight hump is the same dimension as on the old ranch mini's and the new 580 & 581 mini's with the exception being the dovetail cut that the older series mini's had for the old flip up rear sight. That is why the new...

    XS Sight, scroll down to the mini section. You can get the xs sights in different peep sizes also, ask when ordering, from .230 down to .125". Also can get a threaded peep that will take the threaded peeps from williams, Stock Ruger peep is .094 I believe Williams makes a sight also. In the...

    SKS Scope and Mount Package deal

    Hey Res45, Can you still use striper clips to load the yugo with the choate scope mount? If your scope is in the way could you use stripper clips with say a red dot type scope?

    Appleseed SW Washington/NW Oregon

    Hi Wheeler44, I looked on the Appleseed website and could not find the Castlerock shoot listed (in the online registration section), but did find the one for Yakima in Oct. I'm a newby to the Appleseed shoot/organization concept, so far I like what I have found out. Do you have to be a...

    most versatile rifle

    Hi toivo, I'm looking at a picture of the mossberg 30-30 on the website, it definitely has a side loading port like the Winchester or Marlin. They do make the same model (both called 464 I think) in 22lr which like you said does load from the front down the tube.

    Which Lubricant for AR-15 bolt assembly/barrel

    Actually CLP might be a bit better in a "normal environment" use and a bit better at rust prevention, if using a non chrome bolt, especially in humid and or salt water environments, the militec-1 seems to be better at working in the fine grit sand environment but lacks a little of the rust...
