It ain't no BR barrel. I'm thinking of chamfering it just to see if that helps. If not, it's likely to go away. Of course being a nitrided barrel it will probably eat up the cutter in the process!


Oh I didn't even think about the nitriding. Will have to ask my buddy about that one day.

Wasn't saying yours was BR, just saying anything you do that mimicks what the BR guys find, ain't a bad thing in regards to accuracy.

I ordered a target crown reamer & pilot, so we'll see if it makes any improvement.

Ah a reamer, never crowned anything other than on a lathe. Just feel much better that way.

Let us know how it works out.

Well, I skimmed through this the other night and thought it'd be fun. I mounted a 6x SS MilQuad and grabbed a bunch of my 60 grain Vmax load and headed out.

Rifle specs-

18" Rock River Varmint
Mega lower
RRA 2 stage trigger

Range

Groups

I shot the right target first and felt I rushed it a bit. With the 6x you obviously can't see the bullet holes and I looked through the spotter a few times which didn't help any. The second group (on the left) I kept my head down.

The load was kinda just cobbled together. I knew the 60 gr Vmax shot good at 2.25" with Varget so I just worked up to pressure, shot a few 1" groups and loaded 500 rounds. Looks like it does pretty good.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

There is something to be said for a basic, capable, un-fancy pickup. smile

oh, you put a Cummins in a Ford. Fancy is not the word I'd use smirk

What is it, and early 80's-ish model? Wouldn't a 6.7 or 7.3 be easier?

No, the Cummins is much simpler, fits better and way easier to find simply because the Dodge trucks fell apart around them.

grin okay, thank makes sense. I congratulate you on the conversion, as I'm sure it took a lot of skill. That inline 6 has been used in many large trucks, and is very durable.

Might be fun to stick in an 92-96 Bronco, too.

little dab will do ya. LOL

I have a pellet gun, just a cheapy, that won't shoot all of a sudden. Finally looked down the bore, and it seems the gimicky, "can" that came on it, must be allowed pellet swipes all of a sudden...

As I would want to be able to remove... I'd start with 242 blue, and if not enough go the next step up. Used to be some other formulas had same colors so I verify 242 for sure above color.
