No sir. X-Bolt is a different beast- four holes front and rear.

I forgot a couple of small but important things. Case lube: I have had the best results finger-applying Lee's water based case lube. I also have Imperial Case Wax which is petro-based and it does a decent job also, but the Lee has worked better for me. To stay consistent, I use Lee with Lee...

Preface: I agree with @rookhawk about set and forget for your double hunting rounds (and maybe your bolt carts) once you've figured out your final loads, but you don't have to do a turret press to make that happen. This would be my recommendation for someone just starting out, wanting to start...

You will want to subscribe to the new repeater/tower updates on this site https://mygmrs.com/ and have a list/map of where all the repeaters are and if they are open/closed/permission required etc. if you need long range capability. Also shows you how to get your license.

I'm reupping these rings from Page 124 in case anyone wants who missed.

@Hunter-Habib all you have to do is produce the W&S 32ACP to your assailant and ask, "Pretty, ain't it?" If the beauty of the piece does not diffuse the situation, then discharge three rounds into said assailant and ask again. I believe the next response will be in the positive. For me, I was...

Odd; it's been a whole month since anyone posted here. I HAD to post this one because I really didn't want to open it; I wanted to eventually gift it to someone, but I don't know any scotch drinkers near me. Uncorked this banger yesterday I've been holding onto since the plague. Date on...

Torque, tolerances, twist, time.

OTOH, I just took delivery of three Lyman 55 powder measures of various vintages, two RCBS beam scales from the 1970's, and C-H and Redding beam scales from somewhere in the late 50's to early 60's. Why? I don't remember now; I think I was looking for a 55 to compare to the new Brass Smith...

I'll try to produce a video tomorrow.

Yeah, but there's a fingerprint left on one of the WM bullets. What is your anneal process? I'm about to start with the water pan and hand torch on a record player method. Don't laugh.

Your 'chucker is setup for righty while the 419 is setup for lefty. Are you two-fisting or is there some other reason?

I gotta ask... what did you do to the shoulders to get them shiny brass contrast to the neck and case?

Beautiful rifle; great wood. Thanks for sharing and congratulations on completing the quest. That fore end tip adds a sublime touch to the deep figuring of the stock. I like how the burled grain straightens out at the wrist- the stockmaker knew what he was doing. Good luck with it. Hoping...

I run the cheap because it's "better" and it's in huge supply at the farm store. In the south, I don't guess cold ever gets cold enough to slow down the oil. @Rifleman97 Project Farm video convinced me last year. Don't tell me we're about to take AH down the oil rabbit hole. I've been down...
