I regret to say that I did not have the time to read this entire thread. My 6/284 loves 49grs of R22 and a B105VLD. My best 4rd group is .087" @ 100yds. The load consistly shoots in the .teens if I do my part. Velocity is about 3200fps depending on the OAL to the lands. Anyway, is not the...

Well, I was the lucky recipient of Lynns generousity. He is right, the finish on the Lost River bullets is quite rough. I like to play around different loads. Here is what I am thinking. R22 is a pretty good powder for the 300WM. I am thinking of loading up 4rd/charge and increase the load .4...

Jon, Welcome to this site. The 280 Ackley is a great round. As far as I am concerned you plan sounds pretty good. Your plan seems to be an effective general purpose long range rifle. A few key items to consider. Stock, make sure that it is the one you want. A stock is a very personal choice...

I just retired 100rds of Lapua 300WM brass, Had at least 10 reloads/rd. No problems what so ever, I just thought its better to err on the side of caution. I do not want a seperated case.

Hunting rig to 350yds...I would go with a Vari III Leupold... But you want clarity. Then Schmit&Bender all the way...Probably the best Hunting Scope you can buy. There Optic's pretty much set the standard.

reduced to $200. Any takers?

What dies and shellholders are you using?

Lemay, This is strickly my Opinion...With a 30 Cal, you have the choice of bullets from 110grn-240grns...That is versatile, with some recoil. Now the 338 has bullets from 180-300, it is versatile, but alot of people have not built up the tolerance for the heavier recoil of a 338. When you...

Dr. John, Everyone needs a long range 30Cal...its one of the most versatile tools a shooter can own. Your delima, if you do not have a long range 30Cal, I would say this is were you should start. Before you go to the 338.

Gents, I will be shooting this cartridge in the near future. Would appreciate any info that you have on loads. Will most likely start out with the 300SMK. Thanks in advance.

Dr. John, Living in CA everything costs more...I researched as much as I had time to... There are not very many of them in SoCal...The ones that I found they were quite proud of them... Another thing, I was told by several(trusted) people that they were on back order and were not able to get...

I have the above stock for sale. It has been glass bedded, It is set up as a single shot. Was enletted for a Kreiger #18 barrel. Includes the ADL Trigger Metal and Rem LA single shot metal plate. This stock is very similar to the HTG, however it does not have the rise in the cheek piece area...

well, after reading alot of posts on the AR30...I went out and bought one today...I will get it in 10 days. Dr. John, I was told today that the grip is the same as the AR15 and the the after market grips will fit... However there is a bar coming from the end of the stock that might interfere...

nks from what I have read, The original SS were 10X Side focus. These are the ones that were made for the military...The original ones were supposedly very very good...but I do not think the ones being made today, are the same... Regardless, SS is not the best choice for a "SNIPER" whose life...
