That’s a great idea. I sent off an email to them. Hopefully they can point me in the right direction.
Attached is my most recent iteration. It’s still a little too wide for the cartridge, but again I have no idea. The pictures off google show very steep angles up front, almost no bend in the...
I’m using a kelbly atlas tactical with a wyatts 300 prc box. I’m trying to put this fully together myself and literally don’t know where to start on bending the lips.
Well I had some free time this last week and went ahead and tackled it. Definitely not the cleanest looking bed job but it seems very functional. I will not be using action screws to bed in the future though. Pushed some epoxy up into the chamber area before the barrel and had a bit of a panic...
Having a rough time trying to bend my wyatts 300 prc box. I’m close to ruining it after all the bending back and forth I feel like. I’ve never used a bdl rifle so honestly I don’t even know what the lips are supposed to look like. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Ndheidmann-mind if I PM you and bounce some ideas off you? My buddy still hasn’t located any and I’m heading to Georgia tomorrow. I’d give ya some good Colorado spots in exchange if you’re up for it.
Here’s my Colorado bird from last weekend. We got into them pretty heavy.
Eh. Didn’t really know they existed. Plus ive already got pillar etc. Really just had to buy some arcaglas and all thread section. Not to mention I feel like people on this forum have a ton of good relevant experience and tend to share it pretty openly.
Thanks for all the reply’s everyone! I think I have a technique kinda of figured out from blending everyone’s together.
Take some material out of the stock inlet with dremel (already down prior to reading your comment 762gunner)
I also needed to take material out of the barrel channel. Not...
On second thought, I think I’m going to go with the McMillan technique and go shorter on the pillars, and bed the stock and pillars at the same time. Anyone use this technique?
Im trying to wade through the bs out there and kind of hitting a wall. Do you pillar bed it first leaving a small gap, then glass bed the action? Or all at the same time? Thank you btw I’m excited to struggle through this process.
So
I just got my EH1 in the mail after 5 months and I’m ready to screw it up. I would love to pillar bed this without having to go to a gunsmith and pay/wait etc. I’m sure some of you will cringe at this idea but I’m pretty handy and I’m ready to tackle this myself.
Any opinions on compounds...
Well now we’re considering Alabama or Tennessee. Also, does it make sense to walk into the more heavily timbered WMA/NF’s instead of the more broken habitat on the smaller parcels? I’d imagine the bird density is lower in the timbered areas, but maybe pressure is down. At this point we’re...
Damn sounds like it’s a pretty bleak picture. Any neighboring states any better? I’m no stranger to the crowded public game (otc elk, Colorado/Nebraska public turkey) but it seems like a pretty rough go out there. Maybe I’ll see if I can’t get him to come out to Nebraska or something. Thanks for...
Yeah I’ve poked around on the site a little bit. It’s where most of my ideas have come from thus far. He’s right outside Atlanta and isn’t afraid to travel for some birds. What’s the quality of the public in the state? Over run with hunters?
Hey all
I have a close buddy who moved out of Colorado to Georgia a couple of years ago who, after multiple attempts on my parts, is finally starting to pick up hunting. Thing is he doesn’t know anyone out there to mentor him, and has no access to any good private land. I threw the idea out...
Stumbled into a Big R ranch store that just opened up in my town and was checking through their very odd and mostly useless collection of reloading supplies and theres a box of 100 pieces of lapua brass 300 prc brass. Im building a 300 prc myself and just got 100 pieces of adg brass so I know...
How about .280ai? Good barrel life, great accuracy, great brass options, manageable recoil. If I was going to shoot one 7mm offering for 80% deer, 20% elk and didn’t want to have to rebarrel in a couple hundred rounds (looking at you 28N), I’d 100% go for a .280ai.
edit: didn’t see that it’s...
