welp, i did IT again!!!! i bought some g96 gun treatment, not that i NEED it. i was perfectly fine with gunslick's foaming bore cleaner and ballistol. i was fine when i mixed atf and mineral spirits. what more do i need? they have g96 instead of breakfree clp. buy it, you'll like it!!! so i bought it. i'll use a time or two and then it goes on my shelf. and it won't be alone!!!!!
i have rem oil hoppe's #9 gun oil hoppe's #9 bore solvent birchwood gun scrubber shooter's choice mc7 bore solvent sweets kroil hornady 1 shot gun cleaner butch's bore solvent shooter's choice copper solvent sharp shooters wipe out bore solvent remington bore cleaner shooter's choice lead cleaner frog lube 3in1 oil rig gun grease teflon gun oil pro shot bore cleaner pro shot copper bore cleaner birchwood gun oil and there is few more to boot!!!!!
i think i got gun cleaner syndrome(gcs) to go along with rifle collection syndrome(rcs) too. i don't want to talk about gun cleaning rods(gcr), the gun brushes/patches(gbp) or the shooting rests and bags(srb) either.
i have a problem............

the buttplate is oversized and there are some dents just forward of the toe.i think it was from the rear swivel. but what do you expect from a gun that comes from 1936 . them swedish guys sure know their wood!!! i could believe how light it was. i'll keep your name when the time comes.

i have an win m94(1973) in 30-30 that definitely needs some cerakote. when thats done then its going to JES and he'll make a 35-30/30 win. when thats done, i want to use a "red dot" sight. since the rifle is top eject and i abhor a side scope mount, i would like to go with the pearsons no drill mount and a see all sight. does anybody use this? what do you think? www.mod94scoperail.com/seeallopensight.com/

i got this from another website. he is a excellent gunsmith.

My sincerest apologies for the deletion of all the posts that were already here…
Reason being is that I just spent a couple of hours on the phone with guys from Winchester, and with all of the new things that I have learned today, misinformation was given, and some to the point that is would open up liabilities that I would not want to be responsible for…
So, with information that is now fact, and straight from the company who designed and developed the new 350 Legend cartridge, let’s try this again…
Key Features of the 350 Legend Cartridge, as listed by Winchester –
More ENERGY than 30-30 Win, 300 Blackout and 223 Remington…
World’s fastest straight-walled cartridge…
Approximately 20% LESS RECOIL than the 243 Winchester…
20% more PENETRATION…
LESS RECOIL than the 450 Bushmaster…
Effective deer hunting ranges up to 250 yards, plus it delivers more energy than the 5.56mm, 300 Blackout or 30-30 Winchester…
This is a new case design and is NOT made from straight walled 223 Remington brass…
Compliant in states that allow straight wall cartridges for deer hunting…
2019 – 350 Legend Ammunition Offerings From Winchester:
350 Deer Season XP® 150 grain Extreme Point / 2,325 fps…
350 Super X® 180 grain Power-Point / 2,100 fps…
350 Hog Special 180 grain Power-Point / 2,100 fps…
350 USA White Box 145 grain FMJ Flat Nose / 2,350 fps…
350 Power Max Bonded® 160 grain Bonded JHP / 2,225 fps…
350 Super Suppressed™ 265 grain Open Tip / 1,060 fps…
The 350 Legend is rated at a s.a.a.m.i. maximum average pressure of 55,000 psi…
BORE/GROOVE is .346/.355……….. Now knowing this information, I would NOT use .358 diameter bullets in a factory chambered rifle! Reason being is that the factory chamber is cut with a .357 diameter throat, then it tapers down to .355 (which is 9mm)…
Factory barrel’s are 9mm and are NOT .357 or .358, but with the throating that Winchester is using, and using bullets of softer construction, those bullets can and do squeeze down in diameter to pass through the bore without issue!
New rifles or barrels offered through me, will have the correct 9mm bore and groove diameter and will be throated specifically for. 357 diameter bullets…
I should be able to tweak a few dimensions on the reamer to make it BETTER, since it is now s.a.a.m.i. spec’d reamer and the final dimensions have already been made…
Again, my apologies for the deletion of the other posts. Any questions, I will take them straight to the source and make sure that any and all answers are correct before posting…

ok, i've have done it. its all my fault. i did not crimp the 450gr lfn gc with the 500L(tc encore/23" MGM barrel). i'm so sorry. at 100 yards the upper right side(2 holes) was scoping it in some time ago, i was loading up 450gr lfn gc with 16.5gr of hs-6. i don't know if was the phone or i was distracted, but i did not crimp(hornady dies) them or if i did, it was a light, light crimp. i always(or most of the time) can tell if i "pulled" the shot. this time(s) i was confident of the shot(s). i didn't what to do. i know that they(450gr lfn gc) will go 1 1/2 - 2" at 100 yards. why was it opening up? i thought it was me. i "pulled" the shots. it got to the point that i almost used dacron fillers. i was thumbing the 500L cartridge when i "figured" out that the cartridge was not crimped!!!! i won't say what i did say(family and all that ) but the non use of my crimp die can do some spectacular things, like opening up my groups. i did a medium crimp on the rest of the 500L cartridges and i did one shot group that was in my specialifaction(top picture on the right side).
i have to shoot a couple more groups to make sure but i "figure" that it will stay the same.
