Amazing stuff, good post!

on further review all the google searches i'm looking at is not that part,

This isn't under the band at all, take a look at the tiny part to the left of the tube, and again the smallest screw...

Boom, awesome. Thank you!!!!

Had to take apart one of my newly acquired 97 and found this metal tab on the mag tube near the front. It was missing one of the tiniest screws I’ve ever seen. Looking at parts and schematics can’t...

Well solved my problem, my gun club had a gun show today, went to see if anyone had a barrel, I’m walking around and find a norinco 1897 for 500, tell the guy I’ll think about it, walk to the back,...

Starting to lean towards park now

Saw the one on eBay….made several offers on the eBay option, price is…up there….

Appreciate the feedback, I did end up picking it up, they wouldn’t haggle at all in the price so just bit the boolit. I’m fine with what I paid, and it takes down fine and is all there. Only jacked...

So i've been looking for an 1897 for sometime and recently found one at the local gun shop and a decent price, but not quite the steal. Its a 12g take down model, which i wanted, but someone had...

It’s mike! I remember the quail on his price list! I knew you’d guys would remember! Thank you thank you!

Mr Taylor, I will keep you for my contacts as well,

I’m thinking it’s a combo of an inspec but generous chamber with repeated (x3x) FL sided brass.. shot some out of my bolt 06, gauge was consist at .047 after firing, might take it to the smiths for a...

Also rifle carbine or pistol lenght gas system?

Try wolf extra power springs, when the bolts comming forward the back end is driven down a bit causing the round to hit at 12, the extra power springs puts more upward force on the round against the...

All standard mag springs?

The tip of the bullet gets jammed at / before the chamber at 12 o clock?

Or is it jammed at the mag / feed ram?

It was someone that was on this site, mailed out the barrels, can’t remember. Local smiths at 40% more than what he charged

I lost the gentlemen's contact info that i swear i found on here one time. He was reasonably priced for cutting, crowning, installing sights on shot gun barrels. used him on several barrels years ago...

I either have messed up setting the sizing die at some point or changed a variable without checking sizing dimensions……

Will find that video, saw the barrel frame gap, checked that, no issues.

Had a case head separation the other day with mine in 06. powder is no where near max, load i've used for years with no issues. checking the other cases with the hornady headspace gauge i'm showing...

Shot a few more rounds the other day, had the primers pop out, nice tiny holes in the target, Thoughts???

Lee pot order to anneal brass.

How are you annealing? Anyone using a lead pot?

I was using the 06 die as a Test, it was one I had lying around and doubles of.

Blank forming die! Excellent!!

Impressive results


But no annealing at all?

Ok, i have a desert eagle that does not like my PC bullets nor do i like paying for j words to go blasting with it. I don't use it for hunting and just general shooting and destruction of electronic...

Tried with the old style sizing die underneath, i tried a few 44 mag boolits. The stem seemed to not want to drive the bullet all the way through the die where it would drop. Out of the few i tried...

Ok, did more RN boolits, adjusted the claw that grabs and drops the bullet to be a bit tighter and adjusted the tube height again. Feeds RN up or down now just fine!!!! Just sized easily 1000 this...

Worked with some round nose 158g. Did about 300, they seem to like to feed with the nose down. Tried adjusting the feed tube distance but they kept getting misaligned in the shuttle. All it took was...
