Upper Nisqually Gun Club has a 500 yard range.

Excellent suggestions by all, thanks for your input. Before I forget... it's a Bell & Carson synthetic stock. I am confidant that I've got everything mounted & adjusted properly. Trigger time will determine if there is an issue with any of the internal components. If it is off center on my...

Sorry about that. Leupold rear base, adjustable and yes I used the adjustment during the bore sighting, then fine tuned it @ the range.

Well... went to the range today, zero'd in @ 200 yrd a nice dime sized group. Torqued the ring screws. Doubled checked the optical center after everything was game tight, the windage hair was lined up perfectly, the elevation line (reflection) was probably about 6-8 MOA above the actual cross...

Can someone please bring me up to speed here... I have a Leupold 4.5X14 LR BC. I've been concerned lately that there may be something wrong with it. It seems like every time I go to the range, I need to make a windage adjustment from left or right (nothing consistent). Once I redial the center...

300 WSM, Win Nickel plated brass

I have read in other forums that cases can be reloaded 5-6 times or more depending on the load. As I have come to understand, nothing is typical when it comes to reloads, so as a rule of thumb, what am I looking for in the cases to know when I have fired my last round from it. I have found a...

Since I have started reloading, I have only reloaded 1 type of bullet (Nosler CT Ballistic Silver tip). I am going to try a different type (Nosler AccuBond). I have found that the 2 different bullets have different seating depths (COAL measured @ OGIVE, CT Ballistic tip = 3.275, AccuBond =...

Any suggestions for an accurate load for a 300 short mag. using Noslers 180 gr. Accubonds?

I've been shooting them a lot for the past year (180 300 WSM). Very pleased with the accuracy, I have never shot any game with them only paper, the claims are they are for light skinned animals. As far as barrel wear I can not comment as I do not know, what I can tell you is that "clean up"...

What type of pressure signs? How was the accuracy?

Anyone have load information on Noslers Etip bullets? I have dialed in loads on their Ballistic Silver tips and assumed the Etips would be similar, but have not been able to find any info on them. In each box of bullets they put a little note on top that says they recommend starting at the...

Anyone interested in sharing information regarding an high velocity / accurate load for the 300 WSM. I'm loading 180 Nosler Ballistic Silver Tips in Win Nickel plated brass using CCI magnum primers. My 1st attempt at this was using W760 powder, a load of 60.5 Gr, was the most accurate for my...

Any idea where I can find some Viht N550? Everywhere I look shows it has been discontinued.
