    copper killer ?? ??? ??

    We use 2 of KG Industries products named KG-1 Carbon Cleaner and KG-12 Copper Remover in conjunction with Kano Laboratories Kroil Penetrating Oil. We liberally dose the bore after a range session and while still at the range with Kroil and let it soak until we are ready to clean the weapon...

    TC ICON precision hunter

    I can't say that I have seen or shot one of the TC Icon rifles, but I can say that last week Mike Degerness (Advanced Barrel Systems) and I were on the phone and one of the topics he brought up was his acquisition a TC Icon. He said that it was a pleasant surprise to find that the rifle shot...

    load for 338 lapua

    I use primarily Hodgdon H1000 and Retumbo due to the low standard deviation rate of these powders.

    Lawton Actions and Barrels

    We use Barney Lawton's actions and barrels. The barrels slug out perfect every time - no matter the contour, and the bore finish is excellent. All we have to do is to thread the tenon, chamber, crown and finish coat. The actions are, for me, a dream come true. I also hope that everyone...
