NWI INGO General Post - Part 12

I see subtle humor doesn't work on you guys.

I guess I'll have to up my monthly purple allotment.

I got it and I chuckled

I think I'm looking for a gunsmith who can true up a Remington 700 action and install a new barrel blank. Is there anybody here in the NW corner that anybody has used and trusts?

While I haven't used them, I spoke with Chris at the gun show in Valpo on Saturday. He seems to be very knowledgeable and I get the impression that if he can't do something he'll tell you right away. I have no idea what his turnaround time is or anything else.

The only gunsmith I know personally is my nephew, but he's in MO.

I'll second this. his table was right next to a friend of mine and we talked a bit. He taught me a thing or two about building rifles and wild cat CF rifles that are legal to hunt with in Indiana.

That doesn't smell right to me. but murder/suicide wraps everything up nicely for the po po.

Reminds me of the suicide in Hobart when the guy beat himself to death in his workshop with a hammer. The door was locked from the inside so his wife just removed the hinge pins and removed the door. Try that some time.

Bump it up.

You guys...
So, if you are reloading in the cold, I guess the only thing to worry about is working up a max load in extreme cold and shooting it in hot weather, if you really want to get into it. You can get around the problem by warming the ammo to a normal temp before shooting it.

Warming it by a fire is the quickest way to get it up to temp.

You can get things up to temp with a little planning like running a couple hundred rounds through the gun before you shoot them...

I prefer the stovetop, stretch some foil over a skillet, and it's like your own jiffy pop

I put them under a Fresnel lens in the sun. Warms them up in no time

Lightweights.

I pour a couple hundred gallons of water into the bottom of a furnace, the pour liquid steel over it.

Do they still make this?

I have a friend who made aluminum alloy and had just moved an ingot next to the vat to heat up and a supervisor pushed it in. Luckily no one was killed in the explosion.
