  4. thanks yep IMMMMMMM Baccckkkk getting settled
  5. Here the story I picked up a M39 Fin rifle, barrel was corroded, and stock was broken so I decided to make a fin sniper/target rifle but only modern. I contacted lother walther and had them make me a barrel 27 inch target 11 degree crown chambered in original 7.62x54 R, the barrel is long chambered, I thread the barrel to 16 tpi / 60 degree as original, the made the extractor cut and shell lip with a dermal, worked well. I made a receiver mandrill out of bar stock on the lathe then trued the receiver witch was almost perfect in the first place; fins did a hell of a job. Ordered a tiger wood tacdriver stock from Richards micro fit gun stocks. http://www.rifle-stocks.com/ Ordered Scope mount, Allen screws, side safety and pillars from ken at Rock Solid Ind http://rocksolidind.com/products.html. Getting a hubber trigger from Tennessee Gun Parts http://www.tngunparts.com. I mounted the Scope mount and glass bed it for further stabilization, it did not need it but I figured why not, it is a solid mount with the side locking screw, well made, I cannot say enough about this mount so far it is the best aftermarket mount I have seen oe tried for a M39/91 it Rocks, no pun intended . I lapped the lugs by cutting and old barrel butting a spring in the chamber and half a shell casing to push against the bolt. I mounted a Falcon Optics Merlin 10x42T Tactical Rifle Scope, I got from Mel at Sniper central for $280.00 http://www.snipercentral.com/falcon.htm This scope to me is on par with the Super sniper I like the turret adjustments and retical better and it comes with side focus for less the super sniper. So now I am waiting for the stock from Richards It cost me $225.00 for the 1 inch pad and 1 inch barrel channel mount is great I glass bed it , it is solid as advertised scope from sniper central Merlin Falcon the stock is tacdriver tigerwood from richards micro fit, will be here in a week or so, also got some other parts coming from Rock Soild Ind: bolt handle, side safety and pillers as well as alan bolts Stock is simular to this but tiger wood
  6. I always use both shoulders, always
  7. anyone have a good number or email for Blanchards or Industrial Heat Treating I am back in the USA in 3 weeks need to start building again
  8. do yourself a favor and get a M98, VZ24 or M48, then your apotions are more broad, 6.5x55 or 308 will be fine. if you are going to stick with the turk you can get a New 6.5x55 Sweade barrel from sarco and mount it on the turk here is one I did a time ago on a turk, if I remember it was a 29 inch barrel
  9. Lather walther made me a brand new target barrel for my fin 39, heavy profile
  10. I like the metal to wood blend
  11. I also have IOR and they have enogh travel for 1K, with out the MOA rail, but I would suggest getting a 10 MOA or standard, sell the 20 MOA, I only use 20 MOA on my 50 BMG and 338 Lapua for shootng past 1500 meters
  12. like Zr1 said 10 MOA base should have been enough (if your scope needed the extra MOA at all) I normally do not use MOA bases with a 308, since 1000 yards is about max performance for that round and honestly 800 is optimal, get a good scope with enought MOA .......
  13. thats good too just make sure its adjusatble a re hard trigger can make for loose groups but know I have not used them, you mean ones like hubber products????
  14. Yes I notch it and grind out the area for the safety (if using side safety) and if the tigger hits the trigger guard I grind it down to fit
  15. well accesories and accuracy, AR15.... if only one that would be it on the other hand if you need one for hunting large game FAL in 308 now if you want my best opinion, if I could have one gun at all and only one it would be a DPMS panther in 308, I love mine and is one of my favorite rifles in the world, accuracy is sub MOA save your money and you can get one from 800-1000 dollars I bought mine used for $850 [attachmentid=169] not only is it 308 for hunting but it out shoots 90% of my bolt guns
  16. here are my 2 03 's rechambered to 270 [attachmentid=163] 3006 [attachmentid=164]

    Ati Stock Mods

    there was a question on ATI stock mods, I was un able to answer but here is what I got remove and fill with bedding [attachmentid=157] sand then paint [attachmentid=158] glass bed [attachmentid=159] cut out for bold trigger [attachmentid=160]
  18. AR 180 is a fine rifle, but not as accurate as AR15, though I think more reliable I have one. [attachmentid=154]
  19. heres one I did on a 1903A3
  20. I normally sand blast, with great results
  21. Guys I thought I would pass on to this forum since it is the first I ever joined and made friends with most here, Sarco has 26 inch PH barrels back in, about 100 of Grade A and some more Grade B Grade A $64.00, I just bought 2 and looking for money to get more... SHHH do not let every one know or they will go fast
  22. ZR1 know of any good heat reat companies
  23. the bores are a little tight, I put one of my reamers in a lathe and used sand paper to bring it down some. you will have re thread the barrel do to deepening of the chamber to fit the 30 30 shell. the PH barrels shoot 144 grn bullets very well that is what they were made for. if you look at the 308 and 3030 there will need to be some cutting down on the barrel to get the 3030 to reach the lands and the sholder to fit correstly, getting rid of the 308 shoulder, but other than that you should be fine.
  24. I built around 9 of them all with great success
