6x47 Lapua Match custom chambering

Custom Built F-Class/Benchrest rifle built on a Kelbly Panda F-Class with 20MOA picatinny rail built in. Installed a Jewel HVR trigger that goes for 1/2 oz - 3lbs. This was a 6x47 Lapua Match .270" Neck chamber in a Krieger MTU contour stainless barrel

Thanks for the educational video!! Who makes this action in this video?

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Thanks. That is a kelbly panda f class action

[@1903A3shooter]

SO impressed I can not find words. Does your chuck move in the Z axis? sure looks like it does. Fantastic looking lathe. Dave

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Thabk you I appreciate it. No the chuck doesnt move it appears so since i have my GoPro camera mounted to the carriage the chamber reamer is held in.

Your audio sometimes fades out and you can't hear your for a moment

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Robert Banks yeah it started doing that with the go pro. I changed some settings to see if it will go away. I think it was getting a loud noise and would block the sound. or its the machine electronics interfering with it. I had to cut off the beginning of my machine gun clips cause it was messing up the sounds

[@RJMachine62]

Nice to see some gunsmithing. What year is your TL-1 ?

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

2014 I believe

[@sidnofal1056]

Peace be upon you, I want to buy this reminder from where and thank you

[@jakemasheck5005]

I absolutely love your channel! I know that it has been a while since you have posted a video, but please keep the vids coming. Great work!

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Thanks. Been working on a new shop haven't had much time to play making more videos currently but they will be coming soon once we get into the new shop.

[@1984WillS]

I have never heard of that action manufacturer.

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

They make some nice competition actions for several disciplines from tactical steel matches and benchrest. They are out of ohio

Is your chuck mounted on a True Bore alignment system? Great video 👍

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Yes it is. thanks appreciate it

[@danmacdonald1291]

@@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942 If you could ever be bothered making a video and going over a few details I'd love to hear your thoughts. I'm interested in mounting one to my lathe, but getting them to Australia is an arse pain..

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Yeah I can probably put together a video on that. Always thinking of things to film and put up. Going to be getting back on it. I have been busy getting into a new shop we built over the winter so I haven't done any videos in awhile

[@danmacdonald1291]

@@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942 That would be sensational, I look forward to watching along! Good luck with the shop move. Dan

[@jaycupples4362]

My question is with the chamber end chucked up in running true how do you get the 20” plus of barrel running true that’s in the throat of the lathe? I know you indicated the rod that was in the bore but that’s only 6” or so.

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

No barrel is straight and to end. The key is getting the chamber cut straight so the bullet enters the bore square. Then the same process is done for the crown so the bullet leaves square. Even those that use outboard spiders on the muzzle won't have the muzzle dialed in running true on the outboard.

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

Gravity at the muzzle and metal grain will affect this more than the rest of the runout that is immeasurable behind the chuck

[@roughriderguncompany3334]

What collet holder is that tool post for the reamer?

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

Thats a bison free float holder with a 1" straight shank

Given the money just a "barrel blank" from Krieger costs and how "cheap" it is to have the same experts who build such kick-ass "blanks" just go ahead and "short-chamber" the barrel with the same machines and tools and personnel and expertise they use to make the "blank", it just blows my mind that neither "gunsmiths" or their "customers" are smart enough to let the experts do the "cheap" and "easy" work (for them) and simply finish-chamber the barrel which almost anybody can do well and not screw up. Buying a "barrel blank" is like buying a "rough-bored" engine block from Dart and then paying the local machine shop to "bore" AND finish hone it to final bore diameter fitting the pistons you've already purchased instead of buying a bored block and just finish-honing and fitting the pistons perfectly with a minimal amount of expense and wear and tear on the machinists tools and with no REAL loss of "income" or "revenue" for the machinist who is still doing the "easy" part but can charge exactly the same amount because it's also the "final" and crucial part of the process. I guess some people just like "making chips" and wearing out their own tools and doing"precision" work with rented, used tools of unknown "history" and "condition". And by the way, a MACHINIST should know you can't "sharpen" a REAMER. You can "grind it" to a smaller, different "chambering" but you can't remove material from the flutes to sharpen them without reducing the OD of the reamer and in the process taking it out of spec.

[@x-ringcustomgunsmithing942]

DEEREMEYER1 because I set mine up to .0002 or less run out I dont know what krieger does but I doubt they take as much time and care in set up as I do. Most if not all benchrest builders do 100% of their own chambering because they can set it up and know the chamber is on center line to the bore. Also you can have reamers sharpened again you can have them sent back to the tooling makers and they will regrind them and sharpen them to the same dimensions as it was. I also dont ream out the chamber 100% with the reamer I bore it out with a bar and then finish it the reamer. I also dont always rent reamers I buy a lot of them but only stuff that is a repeat bases no sense buying a reamer for maybe one time job.

[@1320wolf]

Wow, you must be a real pro....go tell Bob Villa to order the correct lengths of crown molding, since the saw mill makes the stuff anyway. You think Dart Machinery will finish the bores the way you want them, using torque plates, the type and thickness head gaskets you will use, head studs or bolts, the finish your rings require and the clearance needed for your application? You would be better served to watch and learn than inject your preconceived notions.

[@conexn]

Well guy, maybe he gets some pride and enjoyment out of doing the job himself. All I can suggest is that you build your rifles the way you want, and let him build his the way he wants. Never stops to amaze me why people would watch a video just to bitch about the way someone does something... Life full people bitching all the time, do not need anymore on KZbin.

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

Krieger is well known for lackluster "moa capable" chambers and nothing more.

[@marvinrayweast]

Nice precise work.
