*Note: This method of muzzle threading is NOT suitable for suppressors with tight bullet clearance. We were shooting a 30 caliber projectile through a 46 caliber suppressor. That worked fine, but a smaller suppressor diameter spec could cause issues!
During a recent visit with Fred Zeglin of 4D Reamer Rentals at the Ultimate Reloader ranch, Fred and I decided that a “guest rifle build” was in order! In this video, I’ll tell the story of watching Fred re-barrel a 350 Legend Ruger American rifle to 300 AAC Blackout. What’s more: with simplified tooling.

I took a Ruger American 300 BLK and put a Timney trigger in then mounted it in a glass-bedded Bell & Carlson stock. It shoots 0.7 MOA groups at 150 yards with Federal Fusion 150 Grain / 1900 FPS ammo -- coyote and deer hunting. Great rifle for about $1,400 with a medium priced scope ($300), rings and lens caps. It's my favorite short range rifle.

There was NOTHING wrong with the Ruger American as-it-was for hundreds less. Except, it's in an an AR-style round. I KNOW. I've got TWO AR's in 300 AAC!. (Or 30 cal "short")..Subsonic ammo suppresses well. EXCEPT, this is a HUNTING RIFLE and FOR HUNTING you need to shoot SuperSonic for humane kills. The question should be. If all these were such great mods, WHY hasn't Ruger and other manufactors OFFERED these as options?. AND btw, you're not BUILDING SQUAT!. You are modifying..You are CUSTOMIZING...AND with a Deadly Weapon, I'd not want to have an Anti-2A "D.A" bring that up in front of a jury... Shoot BOX STOCK!. Adapt and LEARN the "TOOL"(Gun)!

I’ve done a RARR build starting with a 6.5 Grendel model. I spun off the old barrel and used a 20” PVA 6mm ARC prefit with their barrel nut and one of Fred’s gauges. Worked like a charm, shoots sub 0.5 MOA CONSISTENTLY, and gives an extra 200-250 ft/s over a gas gun in the same chambering and barrel length. Love the American platform.

Older machinists, or production guys from the old days, wouldn't think twice about a floating reamer holder. It is the exact same concept as a floating tap or reamer holder for the old automated screw machines. These things were cam operated and made gazillions of parts long before CNC machines came to be. Good video!

Would love to see the followup vid on how he smoothed up the feed ramp/chamber area. I have a RAP in 6.5 Grendel which shoots lights out (why is the most accurate rifle I have the cheapest??) but absolutely destroys expensive grendel brass feeding it into the chamber past the two feed ramps machined into the receiver! I was hesitant working on them as I don't want to mess with the lugs the bolt uses to lock on. Sounds like Fred has a plan and will know exactly what to do!

I've ran a factory ruger ranch rifle in 300 for several years with a 1:7 twist. I have learned that this fast twist doesn't like mid weight bullets. Does great with faster 110gr bullets or around that, or slow 190gr plus bullets. Velocity and twist just don't work for mid weight bullets and it's confusing as hell why. I know speeds and twist are a big factor but this little 300 with a fast twist likes light fast bullets or heavy slow bullets. It has to be the most baffling rounds I've ever loaded for. Great information can't wait to see more!

I kept trying to make Lee 155gr to shoot accurately, tried everything with no luck than I a friend sent me some NOE 150gr and that worked better right off the bat and its not even gas checked bullet but I did also have success with some lighter bullets. Never tried heavy bullets, I do have some RCBS 165 SIL now that drop around 173gr maybe that will work, never though about trying as I always preferred faster velocity.

I love my Ruger American Ranch 7.62x39. I have an off-the-wall idea for a rifle I want to build. I would like to find one of the older rotary magazine Ruger Americans in .223 Rem and re-barrel it to .327 Federal Magnum. The rim diameter of the .327 is about .003 smaller then the .223 case head, so it should work on the bolt face with no modifications. I think this would make an awesome plinker / small game rifle. The rotary mag hopefully should allow feeding the .327s with little trouble because it holds each cartridge separately.

For subsonic pest control try 110gr plated RN for .30 Carbine over about 4.0 gr. of Bullseye. They are cheep and accurate in my unmodified version with flush mag and 1:7 barrel. Also, I found out quite by accident that Hornady 110 gr. Full Boar GMX ammo will shoot 3/4" @ 100 yds for me consistently. I have some handloads that are close, but haven't been able to definitively top those factory rounds yet.

Why would anyone spend $1000 on a plain jane boring 300 blk build when I got same factory configuration for about $400.

Am i missing something? faster twist almost always stabilizes heavier rounds better. so, shouldn't 1/8 stabilize and group much better with lighter rounds? and why did the rifle shoot better with the heavier/longer rounds while having a slower (for 300 blackout) twist rate, but shot poorly with lighter rounds?

Have your done a rebarrel on a Mauser? I have a Mexican Mauser. One that was built in Mexico. The barrel in it's not shooting well and I have been thinking about a new barrel just not sure what cartridge. With it being an action built for a coal of 3 inches I would stick with a cartridge based on the x57 case. Probably perhaps 338 or 358. Wouldn't mind seeing what it takes to blue print such an action. I've seen videos on Remington 700 clones but not a Mauser.

Great video, but if on that much of a budget, I feel like I would probably go the prefit route, and just buy the tools to install a prefit on it myself..

Does the muzzle thread need a thread relief so the muzzle device can shoulder up when screwed on?
@ReamerGuy
@ReamerGuy 3 жыл бұрын
We ran with no relief cut as the suppressor adapter I had did not need the relief. I like to leave as much material as I can when threading. There is no real problem with a relief cut if you need one for your break or flash suppressor.

This whole project drives my ocd crazy. I don't see a purpose of using the annular cutter and a die for the muzzle on a new barrel that needs to be threaded on a lathe anyway. I understand you did it for demonstration, but I still would never thread a muzzle on a Mosin with a die. Sorry just can't bring myself to do that
