Looks like we have enough orders to proceed with mfg.I will be back online in a few days to let you all know when they will be ready. If anyone else wants a set please let me know asap. Thanks for your patience! Curt

Looks like about 8 requests now. need 4 more.

Sorry I've been gone so long guys, but I had the dreaded covid and some other issues going on. concerning the 35 rem barrel nut and washer, It looks like six or maybe seven requests. As I stated before I need 12 orders to make it affordable. I will continue to watch this post for more requests. Than...

still have only 3 requests for orders. please read previous post, need 12 each.

Surely some of you want a set of barrel but and washer.come on guys!

We have decided to make the nut and washer in sets (one nut and one washer).we will make the washer with the number of serrations you specify.(one side only). the cost of each set will be $52.00 ea.plus shipping. each set will be unblued. as mentioned in my earlier post I will need a minimum of 12 s...

only have 3 ordered, need 12-15 to make it happen.

Guys I'm sorry but there was not enough response for me to justify making the barrel nuts. I really needed a dozen or so orders to make it worth the cost of setting up and running on a cnc machining center. I will continue watching my post for more interest. Thanks.

pm sent to phyrbird

Thanks guys for your interest.I tried a pm to a couple of you and it would not send. I am having e-mail trouble.as I stated in my first post, I have to let the post run for some time to get as many orders as I can to keep cost down. Setting up to run 3 or 4 would be quite expensive.Please bear with ...

I am in the process of manufacturing new Barrel nuts and washers for the 35 Remington Model 8 and 81. I have had two prototype Barrel nuts manufactured for my own gun and they work flawlessly. I will machine whatever serration on the nuts and washers is required for your gun. Pricing is estimated to...

Fred, thanks for the info. after looking into the rear of the receiver with a light I see no sign of the rear of it being hammered. no sign on the bolt either. so I decided to reassemble her and leave well enough alone. then upon tightening the barrel nut, it broke into three pieces. what luck! I wa...

sounds like it's worth testing. I am also looking into springs for dies used in stamping small metal parts. might take a little time but I will get back to you guys. how can I tell if the spring is over compressed when firing ?

I am in need of a buffer spring for my 1907 model 8 in .35 remington.

.872 o.d. X 1.970 long x .625 i.d. 7 1/2 turns.

Took my 1907 model 8 apart and found it has the wrong buffer spring. Need one for .35 remington. anybody have one?

Thanks Ken, I have both sierra and hornady 200 grain rn bullets but i have been using winchester primers. I'll get some federal LR primers and start on the low end of H4895.

Thanks Fred, I will try for a lower charge. 36 grains doesnt group well so I will try a lower charge and hope it will chrono good enough for a hunting load.

Hey guys, I am loading 38 gr. of h4895 over a 200 grain hornady rn. This prints the best group so far in my 1907 .35 rem. Is this a safe load to continue with? It's just under the max in Lyman data using a Sierra bullet, but 1.8 gr. over according to hornady. Only fired a dozen or so rounds so far.

Btw, absolutely awsome is all I can say about that collection!!!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Not very computer savvy so will someone tell me how to post pics. Thanks, Schofield.

Found mine from an individual in Utah. Just got in from shooting it. Somehow I shot a 5/8 in group with the open sights the other day but can't seem to repeat that. Most groups are about 2 to 2 and 1/4 inches but I'm working on that. Got a 300 Savage Model 81 coming in about a week, can't wait.

Hello from tennessee. Bought my first model 8 about a week ago. 1907 .35 rem. I'm hooked and already found a model 81 in .300 savage. I have questions about reloading if any one could help I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance, Schofield
