Description

Shortly after opening the doors to our new facility in 2011, LRI offered a Group Buy for bolt fluting that exploded; OVER 600 bolts in a 5-week period! Most were received, fluted, coated, and shipped the same day.

It set the bar for what’s possible.

A receiver blueprinting, barrel fitting and coating Group Buy is a bold undertaking; one that we have successfully hosted since May of 2013.

This Group Buy specifically targets the Remington 700, Model 7, Model 721, and the 40X series actions. Long or short, left or right-handed, with any bolt face/factory extractor configuration.

Detailed list of services:

Blueprinting often referred to as truing or accurizing, is the process of improving the accuracy potential of a factory bolt action receiver. LRI ushered in the modern era by embracing the use of Vertical Machining Centers to blueprint bolt action receivers. From a very humble beginning, we’ve refined the process to its current level with the pioneering use of 5-axis machining capability. This is not art, we are putting modern manufacturing potential to good use.

The 5 axis advantage:

Reduction in tool library eliminates tolerance stacking
Consolidated machining operations improves dimensioning accuracy
Exceptional parallelism between bolt and receiver lug surfaces
Use of a “Higbee” lead thread to eliminate the risk of a torn or galled thread start
Avoidance of part distortion from work holding
Taper free receiver ring threads with the use of thread milling tool paths
Standardization of threads through in-process inspection
Misaligned optic base holes eliminated with consolidated work holding
Improved surface finish from solid wor kholding and aerospace quality machining and tooling

Longrifles, inc. Cathedral 3-port muzzle brake.

Our brakes are turned and surface machined from 416 bar stock. The ports are “conical” (smaller towards the i.d., bigger at the o.d.) and swept back at 18 degrees. We mate our brakes to the customer’s barrel for a seamless fit. (minimum recommended muzzle dia. 0.750″- please call if you want to do it on a smaller dia. muzzle)

How all of this works:

Simply gather your parts (or you may elect to purchase components from us as well), print and fill out the order form for the work you would like done (don’t be afraid to use the notes section, or to call us and ask questions before you send your parts), and send your parts to us IN A HARD PLASTIC CASE. If you ship your parts to us from a UPS store, please include (on your GB form, or otherwise), your contact information and ACTUAL MAILING address.

If you do not ship your parts to us in a hard plastic case, we will ship them back to you in one, and you will be billed accordingly. We’ve had too many shipping incidents with just bubble wrap and cardboard. This policy is non negotiable.

We have over 150 chamber reamers in our inventory covering a broad spectrum of popular cartridge combinations. As extensive as this is, there will be requests for wildcats. We have no problem chambering your rifle in a cartridge outside of our inventory of reamers. The official LRI policy on tooling is for the customer to source and purchase the reamer and GO gauge from Pacific Tool and Gauge, you must call to place your order in this case.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Do your research and homework before sending in your parts. We have extensive knowledge about various calibers and parts, but we do not know EVERYTHING. Being chained to the telephone discussing the latest “buzz word” cartridge only means that delivery schedules end up delayed. Help us help you by keeping this to as much of a minimum as possible.

Thank you all for participating. The LRI crew is very appreciative to have your work.
