very good explantation. Thx. Question: if the barrel freebore prepared to 308 Berger 200.20X, how possible reload with Berger 230 gr Hybrid OTM tactical (30112) without reaming?
@longrangescience Жыл бұрын
Thanks! And it should be doable, you would just have to seat the bullet further back and it should work 👍

Very good video :) although I have a question. So I’m looking to make a barrel chambered in 22 hornet. I’m new to gun smithing but I do know how to rifle the barrel and a few other things. What I am kinda struggling with is how to chamber the 22 hornet. Since it’s a weird shape and only slightly tapers I’m wondering if the chamber has to be exact or if it can be a bit wider or maybe even just straight, the reason for this is cause chamber reamers for the 22 hornet where I live are very expensive and rare so I’m thinking about trying to chamber without one. I know if it’s wider the case will expand so can this be reversed by reshaping and trimming the case? I’m looking to reload the spent brass. Thank you :)
@longrangescience Жыл бұрын
Thanks! But I would recommend against cutting a chamber without the right reamer. Just because all the dimensions, angles, and transitions are so critical. If it’s oversized, the brass can over expand and rupture. If it doesn’t rupture, it will be oversized and significantly stressed during resizing, leading to cracking, case head separation, or a few other things. Also, straight usually doesn’t work because the case fills to expand the chamber and a taper helps with extracting the case. If it’s truly straight, the case is likely to get stuck. I know it sucks, but you should be able to rent one a lot cheaper than buying one

how hard does the bullet hit the lands? Example, what if you had a 9mm bullet at .355 inches, what would the land diameter be? Smaller .354 or bigger .356? And how about the bore? Must be a decent size bigger? What if the 9mm wasn't rifled, what would the bore be then, .356? Sorry, just started learning. I been searching for these specific answers but can't seem to find them.

If you were to rebarrel the .243 can it and other traditional chamberings be made with some freebore to accomodate longer bullets? Thanks for the video.

Absolutely. There are throating reamers that can cut the throat longer for any caliber. If you’re going the custom route then you can get faster twist rates as well. Any decent gunsmith should be able to do that no problem.

Hello sir! Can you tell me what is the interior size of AR-15 barrel before it was rifle by using rifling button?
@jeffreyyoung4104 Жыл бұрын
If your barrel is eroding, and you have plenty of barrel to work with, why don't you cut the chamber deeper and cut the shoulder of the shank deeper as well to, in effect, have a new barrel? Especially if your barrel has no timing needs, you could cut a bull barrel a couple of times and save the cost of a barrel at least once, if not twice, in the life of the rifle! I have a rifle that would need an entire new barrel due to headspace if I did not cut the shoulder and chamber again, which would make the project too expensive due to the amount of work, if I had to add the cost of the barrel to the job. In my case, by removing the old barrel, cutting the shoulder back by one thread depth, and reaming the chamber, I will have solved a headspace problem, and the only cost is the labor of the machine work. And the rifle will have another 50 years of life in the family, plus, the barrel will remain original! But in your case, by cutting the shoulder and chamber, you get a fresh barrel, without the cost of the barrel, unless you have spare barrels laying around?
@longrangescience Жыл бұрын
That is actually an option people use. If you have the resources it makes sense sometimes but for some its easier to just get a new barrel. The other issue is fire cracking. I’ve seen cracking from the heat and pressure extend halfway up the barrel in some cases. And that wouldn’t clean us as easily
@Rico11b10 ай бұрын
7 thou per 100 rounds??? Wow!!! Do you find that to be fairly common across many cartridge/calibers, or just the 6 CM??? Everyone has heard the stories about how the 6 CM has a short barrel life and eats up barrels compared to other cartridge combos.
@longrangescience9 ай бұрын
I know! It’s more than I thought it would be and defeats the whole purpose of loading to the lands. Ive heard similar erosion for other 6 mm and 6.5 calibers people have used in competitions but this is really the only one I’ve measured. I’m sure some are better and some are worse, but it would be interesting to get measurements on a large variety of calibers

Didnt you see that real gu smith chanel, the host, (i forgot hos name) daid that 6.5 creedmore had all types of factory ammo problems, at a time when everyone wanted one cause of the Bradley Cooper movie...

His name is Randy Selby and I've enjoyed many of his videos. He also said contrary to popular belief the 6.5 Creedmoor even on a bad day won't cure cancer. Well we all know that and I have nothing but respect for Mr Selby but I've noticed he doesn't seem to talk well about anything Hornady produces. I'm not saying he's incorrect, I really don't know and I've got 2 rifles both chambered in 6.5 Creed. They both shoot like lasers one is a factory brand the other a custom build. I know this is a love / hate round .all the smack talk about it made it that way. These being the only center fire rifles I've owned I cannot compare with others but hunters with typical deer calibers don't believe I hit golf balls out to 300. Never tried further because that's as far as I have. I haven't shot in much wind either so... It has been a great cartridge for me. Again no disrespect to Randy. I'm sure he has a point.
