If anyone has one of these, can I buy or rent it for 1 chamber job? I'd hate to pay 140 for a reamer ill use 1 time on a valueless project.

lbaize3 I did check out that link to the tcm forum. it was pretty neat to see guys with such interest in the rifle. I would love to see a target with 5-5 shot groups at 100 yards under an inch.

I guess I just expected too much from it. I thought it wouldn't be a problem getting this little bugger to shoot in the .75-.5 range. no dice . I did shoot a groundhog with it the other day at about...

Well I have got bored with the tcm. I finally got it to shoot around 1 inch at 100 but not the velocity I wanted. The short barrel lost the velocity. It now resides under my truck seat for road...

Don't know. I haven't shot it yet
I don't even have the brass yet. It has a brake on it so it should be decent.

that price was a steal. I love the sevens especially the cdl. I just picked up a 300saum seven cdl for 500 and thought that was a good deal.
6.5's are my favorite and this 30 cal is my first and...

I wonder if they will chamber this in a 223 or smaller cartridge. it seems like it would be a fine action for say a fireball or vartag if it was smaller.

I made some more mods to the frankengun. I filed out about 70 thou from the magazine guide and notched the magazine itself. this now allows me to have a 3 shot gun with coal of 1.4 inches. this...

decided I was tired of the "hard to extract" issues with slightly high pressure rounds, factory included, so I modified the bolt and made it a very positive working cam.

I should have the reamer Saturday so the gun will be shooting again sunday. hopefully! I am going to make the chamber match my reloading die as far as shoulder setback so the cases don't stretch so...

for the bolt face I just removed the extractor and chucked the bolt up and removed about 5-7 thou from the bolt nose recess. that little crown looking section on the bolt head. I basically just...

my 22tcm is currently under re-construction. I just couldn't get this rifle to shoot consistent so I bore-scoped the rifle more closely after a good scrubbing and found way too many tooling marks and...

I have a question for the op. I don't live in an area where you cannot use centerfire, so maybe you could clear something up. if a rifle is technically a rimfire, in my case a Remington 591/592 5mm...

if you have real bad copper Montana xtreme 50bmg will get it out. with a brush and some Montana you can clear most all copper in just a few min.
did you just get the copper out because you are...

just to add to what lbaize3 already said, here are some pics for you to contemplate. the gun is kind of a push/control feed in my opinion. I think the round is suppose to enter the bolt face once it...

well I did a little shooting today with the tcm. I only shot steel so I have no groups to show but I did all shooting with the magneto speed strapped to the barrel to verify velocities. here is what...

hello guys, I found this forum searching google for the 22 tcm rifle. I too, purchased on of these rifles. I bought it just because I like small case cartridges and I have a tcm pistol.
I have a...

the original craig conversions made by certech came with an extra firing pin so you could shoot either type of ammo. the latter did not but one can be made easily from rimfire firing pin material....
