I have been also working on re-snipering a really nice ex sniper that I have had for quite a few years. Today my tap and hardware came in so I got to work. Everything was going smoothly until I got to the last hole for a pin. I am drilling away and about halfway through BLINK all power goes out :evil: So about an hour goes by and it comes back on. It was on for a while, so I figured I'd get back to work. Turn on the drill press, start drilling and not even 2 seconds later BLINK, power goes out again. So about a half an hour goes by, then it comes back on. It has been on for about 35 minutes, so I figured lets get back to work. Turn on the drill press, the second I turn it on BLINK!!!!!! power goes out. About, 20 minutes later it comes back on. I wait about an hour and a half with solid power, turn on the drill press and get about a 1\16th of an inch and BLINK you guessed it. POWER WENT OUT!!!!!!!!! :twisted: I can actually at this point see where the bit is starting to come through the other side, and this is getting really frustrating. So finally about 3pm it came back on for good and I finished the project. If my neighbors didn't call to see if I had lost power, I would have thought my drill press was tripping a breaker. All I can say is that this sniper didn't want to be re-snipered. LOL

when you shoot that one, maybe you should pull the trigger with a long string

maybe it is your drill sucking up all the power. =)

No

it was just me hitting your main breaker on and off I just didnt want yours to come out better then mine :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Just use Matt

major post resurrection. The gun is damn haunted, the best way to describe it. No matter what I do the main screw that holds the scope on backs out on its own. Every time I pull it out of the safe, the screw is on the floor. I tried red locktite last night and just went down to the safe and sure enough the screw is on the floor. How the fugg does that happen. I mean I used red locktite! This has happened over a dozen times and sure enough the screw ends up on the floor and I am the only darned person with a combination to my safe. But at least the gun is a good shooter! Anyone know a gun exorcist? LOL

get rid of it before your screw comes loose

Sergei Mosin and Leon Nagant are after you...

 

looking forward to pics when your done
