Yeah, me too. 6.5CM vs 260? Most of the shooters I talk to (2500 member club) just want to shoot. Hit the target accuracy is fine with them. So off the shelf ammo will sell a lot of rifles. Guys like me that are "selling" precision hand loading and precision games will get 5-10% coming in the...

Me & you, Smack. These guys shoot the critter with a howitzer, it drops like it was struck by lightening, and they found something to complain about

One (you or me) might be considered ill prepared to have gone afiekd with NO means of clearing an obstructed barrel. When you go with loads that jam the lands you must consider the possibility of having to eject a loaded round and perhaps leaving the bullet stuck in the rifling. I like to carry...

I used them and everything else listed here. I now just tumble for pistol. My rifle is 90% target and I went to ultra sonic. Time consuming but really ( REALLY) good. Thanks to all JonMill

I hav not read all the replynnot see this reply so will stop now so forgive if I ster on anyone. I'm with JE. I always measure each chamber with the Sinclair gauge ( the little slug that goes inside a trimmed down case) It's a pain but exact. I've actually not found a chamber I had to trim for...

25000 rounds and counting. I am never satisfied

If you are going to use factory ammo you may as well use a factory gun. I really like the bighorn actions but I always load my own

The MK4 is a good scope but I would prefer MOA all around. Most of us will have a range finder so that aspect of the mil dot is moot. schmidt and Bender is the best glass I ever looked through

Keep pouring it on, Mag. You got a lot of ground to cover (to bring 'em to your level.

Great info and practice with them mics. to measure a tenth is not a natural thing but not too difficult

Two things stand outin this account; A)In bear country, take that heavy old gun off while wallowing in bloody guts B) "Throw the gun to the guy being mauled by a bear as he will surely catch it and be able to make it work while I go for help. Rampant attack of **** for brains. In fairness let me...

I surely could not make that shot. I know there was a tremendous amount of work done B4 that shot. Congratulations!

Yes but my question is how do the drill marks appear in the bottom of the groove when the material that was drilled/reamed was displaced by a pulled button or removed by a rifling cutter. The lateral marks at the bottom of the groove should not be there and I wondered how they survived the...

I do not understand the lateral tool marks in both land and groove. I would think one of them should be linear ( the groove?). Not a hand lapped barrel. That is why I'm looking to learn how to pour a lead lap for a barrel. Do not want tool marks like that on my barrels, new or old.

Hey Deputy, As much as we would like to think of parrallax(sp) as a thing, it turns out to be more of a relationship. Your eyes today have much to do with it. My first coach told me to check my setting each time sat down to shoot a group. Some can do it instantly and others fiddle with it...
