    264 Win Mags - When would the brass cases be considered "Fire Formed" for each individual action?

    My procedure is like lost of my procedures, extremely simple, here goes. - screw your FL die into your press so that there is roughly 0.100” between the bottom of the die and the top of the shellholder. - Take a fired case and some 0000 steel wool. Clean the neck and shoulder of the fired...

    Are people liking the Strike Eagle 3-18

    Have mounted quite a few of these scopes on customers rifles over the past year or so. I have been quite impressed with their quality and function. That said, we had some that functioned fine but could just not get reticle and image to focus together. Shot great, tracked great. Thought it may...

    Possible new wildcat options from APS

    Do it all the time. My Stalker UL Mag model will fall into that weight range pretty easily. Shoot me an email at [email protected] if you want to talk over the details.

    Possible new wildcat options from APS

    Only recommend naked bullets as thats what bartlein recommends. I have used several of the bartlein bb400 barrels, have not had one come back yet for rebarrel but in all honesty, of all the 7mm Allen Magnum rifles out there which are well over 400 now, only had a few come back that actually...

    Possible new wildcat options from APS

    7mm prc case is about i have had many 7mm Allen Mags over the years. My heavier barreled rifles would consistently break 1000 rounds and as you mentioned one was pushing 1200 rounds. By that point however, they were getting quite tired. Now that i am using Bartlein barrels almost...

    Possible new wildcat options from APS

    There is actually a 360 Allen Magnum based on the 375 cheytac parent case and a 36 Allen Xpress based on the 338 lapua parent case. 👍

    Possible new wildcat options from APS

    It has not been released yet as i am also working on a new line of wildcats called the Prowlers. Testing going on on both. As of right now, the 28 Stalker would be identical to the smaller caliber Stalkers based on the 300 norma Magnum parent case, with my shoulder and case body design...

    338 Allen Magnum

    😉😊 little ways out. This will be a complete new system. New APS rifle focused on offering world class quality yet at a lower price point then my Stalker and Raptor rifle models. Along with the new rifle, new line of wildcats. Unfortunately none of this stuff happens in a hurry but can tell...

    338 Allen Magnum

    Have used it exclusively in all my Stalker wildcats (300 norma mag) Allen Magnum wildcats (338 lapua and 408 cheytac based) and in my Raptor wildcats (turning the 33xc back into the beast if was originally designed to be with my 300, 338 and 375 Raptor chamberings. As mentioned, full equal to...

    338 Allen Magnum

    I had been building the 338 Allen Mag for several years when Shawn asked if i would be willing to sell him a reamer so he could build them. That is the ONLY APS wildcat reamer in use outside of my shop. That should speak volumes as far as my thoughts and respect for Shawn. I know him, i know...

    338 Allen Magnum

    Not sure how i missed this original post other then when it was originally posted, was just running ragged. The 338 AM along with the 7mm AM are probably to date my favorite of my wildcats. Its simply amazing how potent the 338 AM is ballistically while being WARM and FUZZY to shot from a...
