I agree with LRC on this 100% I have some very serious money invested in my rifles and I use Juice and only Juice.
My 223 is a gopher killing machine, I have well over 10000 round through it, just a factory barreled VLS with attitude, and it is still shooting well under 1/2 moa.
Juice is in 1 word " amazing"
I also run the Microlon additives in my diesel , at the cost of a rebuild it is worth the money.

Do you know what you are when you quit learning??










BRAINDEAD!

Keep on learning boy, there is alot of info and expertise to be gleened on this here site.
In my day there was no information superhighway, joys of being older than TV.

Do you guys have any idea where to buy silica packs or some sort of moisture preventative packs? Every place I've called so far has no freakin idea as to what I'm talking about.

Icefire was selling some industrial silica-rechargeable.

Alternatively, you can buy silica cat litter with indicator crystals. Other methods include getting a safe dehumidifier. There are a few out there but I've never been able to find one. I personally want to try Remington's 365 or something....plug in recharge.
 
As for the torque setting being 65 in. lbs. don't worry about that in your case. The only reason that amount of pressure was required was so the receiver and aluminum bedding blocks were sandwhiched together as much as possible for maximum receiver/block contact.

Where the rifle has already been bedded, why would you require much more than hand tightness?

Two points worth mentioning.

1)Never spray oil on a trigger assembly as it attracts dust and then gums up.

2)Don't spray any lubricant directly onto the rifle where it can run down to the bedding area.If any oil runs down between the bedding and action,it will often cause your groups to open up dramatically.Then you have to remove the barreled action from the stock and degrease both.
 
ok hold on, so a lube in the barrel is increasing muzzle velocity? over what a regular barrel has? hmmm that goes against what some rather large experts like Doug Shilen and Gale Macmillan say. The lubed barrel, if it actually made a difference, would reduce pressure thereby reducing velocity.

keep doing this until your bullets stop climbing on a target at 100 yrds...It is also a lubricant that increases muzzle velosity, thats why the bullets climb durring initial application.
This sounds like proof enough for me.
