I have liked the Winchester 94 ever since I purchased my first one for its easy handling and history. John Browning, the designer of the Model 94, probably did a back flip in his grave when Winchester pulled this one. However, apart from the 8x57 and a few others, the commercial ammunitions on the other side of the Atlantic have lower values so they are safer: it is important to understand if we are measuring a specific cartridge simultaneously and with the same methods as it is measured in different systems, for example in PSI and bar, the two pressures would show the validity of the conversion system.īut if we use different protocols and different systems to measure the same thing, the values acquired would definitely be very different from the conversion system and we can’t tell for sure there is another formula that allows us to move from one metric system to the other.Ĭrusher, piezoelectric sensors or strain gauge methods give different responses depending on the pressure, as if you moved the measuring point of the sensor long the barrel some protocols require the bullet to correspond to the measuring point, other don’t: combining these possibilities, you get different values for the same cartridge and there is no way of getting the exact conversion with a simple formula. quality manufacture and which are reliable, accurate and safe for the use in. The cross-bolt safety is probably the worst addition ever made to the rifle. 308 Winchester specifications even though the firearm is marked as. The Sauer 303 is one of the most recent semi-automatic hunting gun in. This is a Springfield Armory M1A than was built professionally on a Winchester M14 Kit. With the 308 Winchester/7.62mm NATO in the M14 family (or in M1 Garands rebarreled to the smaller cartridge) or with the 30-06 in the M1, this means sticking to those powders in roughly the same burning range as IMR 4895 or 4064. SAFETY ISSUES BOLTS Even brand new, out of the box, the original Chinese bolt may be poorly fitted at the left locking lug, the bolt may be too soft, headspace may be grossly long for SAAMI.
