Had new spindle made at tighter clearances made a huge difference. Neck runs .005 bullet.0025.

Good luck finding parts. 🤞

@@kenhcurrie8196 I have all the parts.. I just like your finished work. It's my first gun,, bought in 1970 when I was 10 for 90 bucks. I still have the Weaver scope that came with it. I would love to restore it to a working/ refinished gun..

I don't know about that. What he's shown us is that the old multi-lug rear locking Remington 581 action was made to lock up for accuracy and they put barrels on that with its preferred ammo will shoot a tiny cloverleaf at 50 yards. The newly manufactured 10/22 has every CNC advantage of today but did it really beat the old school hand fitted and assembled 581? Not by enough to write home about. I'm only hoping my 581 LH shoots like his, it's a rifle that was bought by the original owner more to look at and admire than be used and the rifling is perfect still. I highly recommend the Lyman Borescope for checking used gun barrels before buying.

No I didn’t have to. There was lots of room for the scope.

In fact if you look on my KZfaq site you will see me shoot it.

That’s strange. I have the same set up. Same scope and I had to flip mine. Is your sight behind the mounting screw or is your mounting screw behind your sight? Thanks for the reply!!!

@@TheBeefSlayer not sure I understand. The rear sight is attached to the rib on the vent. Dovetailed into it. I wish I could send you a picture, not sure how on You Tube.

@@kenhcurrie8196 right... there are a series of Philip’s head screws that hold the rib on. One of them holds the sight into the dove tail. The sight is in like a 1” track above the rib. You can unscrew the whole sight assembly and flip it in the dove tail. I’m asking, from holding the gun properly, does it run scope then sight then dove tail/screw or scope screw / dove tail then sight on the rear iron sight? The rear sight also should have a white triangle on it that normal would face the shooter. If you flip it to make room for a scope it faces the target. Thanks again for all the attention for a curious reply. It also makes me wonder if you bought it new. Mine was my first real rifle I ever bought as a young paratrooper in North Carolina. I have almost all of my favorite memories with this gun. I’m finally running low on my last ammo so I’m thinking of investing in reloading. Thanks for the care and the videos. Means a lot to me. 👍

Hey, how's it going? What kind of guns do you have chambered for these two?

@@kenhcurrie8196 both are custom shop model sevens... 350 is the 1987 grey/ camo kevlar stock and the 300 is the 2001 Alaska Wilderness Rifle

The 350 weighs 2-3 pounds less than the 300 and still seems to have a lighter kick.

@@diggitydane You've got some cool guns there too. I don't know how to send pictures through this, or I would show you how good that 350 shoots. Lol. I have a 2-7x Leupold on it, just about right for the kind of hunting I do with it. I weighed all the big guns here, and then ran the numbers through a program on the net to get an idea of how many ft/lbs of recoil I really was feeling. The 350 out kicks the 300 by a couple of foot pounds. My muzzle loader is the worst, followed by a 338 Win Mag.

@@kenhcurrie8196 I enjoy 338WM and Inline Black powder rigs a lot too. I think the reason my SAUM bites harder has to do with the 5 extra inches of barrel. Always nice to run into knowledgeable gunmen. Your videos are Great Ken! Keep up the Good Work!

Muffs. Lol

Great black bear gun. My rifle’s chamber is short. I couldn’t load that bullet. You’re lucky, but the 225 gr Partition I load would work!

Thanks buddy. Just what the world needs, one more smart ass. I wonder how many hunters in North America wear eye protection when they are hunting. How about all those military guys/gals?? I bet they don’t forget to put their specs on. Get a friggin life man!!

Thanks.

I agree. I’ve shot lots of 788’s. They all shot fantastic. Simple, and effective hunting guns.

I’ve never used them.

@@kenhcurrie8196 you won't be disappointed.

@@easttexan2933 I’ve got a lot of American Eagle shells here. Maybe I’ll try “them” someday, we’ll see. Lol

@@kenhcurrie8196 ✔

Hi Duane. Sorry, I am not interested in selling my 350. Shoots too good, and I have enough cases and Partitions to last me a life time. Good luck finding one, they are seriously cool.

Hi Gary. I kept this trigger. It recoils enough shooting 225 grain Partitons that I thought the extra little trigger pull necessary is a reminder to hold on. Lol. I do have several Remingtons including a Model Seven chambered in 300 SAUM that I have replaced the triggers with Timney triggers set at 2-1/2 pounds. Really makes a difference.

And,.....thanks for watching and liking my videos.

Yeah, since I've made this video, I purchased an RCBS ChargeMaster 1500. Makes loading a lot more fun for sure. :)

Hi Chris. Could you email me a picture of your case mouth, the head stamp on your case and a picture of your dies please. [email protected]

@@kenhcurrie8196 Hey Ken thanks for the reply. I’ve never done messaging on KZfaq before so I just saw this now. I actually called Hornady about it and they’re sending me a new die. They tell me the sizing die should definitely have an area to accommodate the belt at the bottom and mine did not. Thanks

@@chrisnakos215 ok. If you need any help email me and we can go from there.

Adam Bernardy where do u live?

I live in Minnesota...the land of 10,000 lakes an 15 billion mosquitos

Adam Bernardy lol. Funny. We have lots of lakes, and lots of really big mosquitos. I hope you find another 350. If you can’t, don’t give away those cases - they are a little tough to find.

I also have some 6.5 Remington Mag brass and die set and 20 rounds of factory ammo as well in my collection... I may end up building a 350 Rem mag.... a modern spin on a old beauty.... 18" vented rib barrel 1-12" twist 5R ..... detachable magazine system... timmny trigger... maybe a carbon fiber stock.....

Adam Bernardy lol, sounds like fun. I have a Model 7 chambered in a 300 SAUM. Fun little gun.

Axel Sprängare why would that be?

Not even close

.350 rem mag is shorter more powder same calibre hmmmmm

Lol. I just finished running 40 shells through it. Yep, I put on ear muffs.

Miner T , I have never seen an after market magazine for this gun. If you go on the web, there are different ideas how to redesign some other metal clips that apparently work.

I have a 581 I bought in 1968. I can load stingers in my 5 shot mag no problem. They don't shoot well enough to particularly useful to me so I don't shoot them. I wish Remington had continued making them but with the 541S trigger and barrel. I really enjoyed that rifle, but when I got the CZ 452FS, it didn't get out much.
