Agree with Lance, post the video. Bet we can all learn something from it once we get to kicking stuff around

The kestrel is a great tool and I have and use one but it's only giving you the wind at your location, not the in between and at your target as I'm sure you know. Learning to read mirage and the terrain in between you and your target is what you need to work on. Shooting cross Canyon you can...

Unfortunately it's a until you shoot it and see what it shows on paper/on target. According to stability calculators your even more "over stabilized" than @Justice1327. But I've shot plenty of bullets that were "over and under stabilized" and they shot great. Where you can actually see over...

There is a lot of variables here that could be causing your issues, over stability could in fact be the problem with a 8.4 Twist and the light bullets your using. Also what are the specs on your reamer from JGS, I ask since you state your using factory ammo and the freebore of the reamer may not...

Well I don't see a serial # on the other page you have it posted on. I guess I'm out of luck for seeing anything else from you on this gun?

I may be interested but can you post some more photos and include your username and date in the photo per the for sale requirements please? I don't mean to come off as skeptical of you but there has been some questionable for sale posts recently on this site and others. If not it's a free bump...

The hammer bullets would be a solid choice. Another option is to run the GMX's as your first round in the gun/mag and then having your go to 143 ELD-X's after. Check them to see how far off they are at 100 yds. and be ready to cycle out the GMX for the ELDX if a longer shot is in order. I've run...

I shot the 120 gr. GMX out of a 6.5 creedmoor I no longer have. I personally didn't like the performance on hogs at the range your talking about and I was running them around 3000 FPS if I remember correctly. Hornady states minimum expansion velocity is 2000 FPS, from my experience shooting hogs...

I have a 223 PSS LTR. It still has the factory barrel but is definitely showing signs of needing to be replaced. I'll be going with a 8 twist 223 or 223AI when I do. Also mine has shot well with 70 grain and below bullets with some load development but every barrel is different. Based on what...

I may be interested but would like to see some more photos of the gun. The external link takes me to some other site and only has a single photo. Can you put up some additional photos directly on this site?

Correct, different shank/tenon diameter for small and large ring actions. Scroll down to post 8 in this thread, he took the time to write up a lot of info on various Mauser actions. http://benchrest.com/showthread.php?66165-large-or-small-ring-Mausers

@SamuelBerryhill308 If your still looking for a 308, here it is.

Same TPI but a different dimension if that is what you are wondering. Large ring is 1.1" x 12 TPI small ring is .980" X 12 TPI. Also people argue proper thread angle, 60* or 55*, I believe 55* is the proper thread angle. Hope this helps

I'll buy that, good call jbs2014. I was close.....ish

What type of info are you looking for? They are a Mauser action and the 220 Rocket is a 220 swift that is fireformed, similar to Ackley Improving a cartridge, you can shoot factory 220 swift ammo through it and the brass will form leaving you with Roy's 220 Rocket with a classic weatherby radius...
