[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1893100, member: 101755"] Well...all I can say is thank you! Thank you for not picking it up. It's all I use in numerous rifles. Roughly 15 different chamberings. I dont shoot any kind of competition and so far only shoot out to 600 yards. But I still like to shoot as small of a group as I can. So far sub MOA isn't real hard to achieve and smaller is quite possible. I'm not very good at shooting paper but hold my own on steel. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200123_150951.jpeg"]191513[/ATTACH] This three shot group was shot at 600 yards and was a cold bore dial up with a rifle I built chambered in 6.5-06. I took the rifle right out of the truck, uncased it then dialed up the shot it. Here is a 5 shot group at 100 from another rifle I built. 6.5x284.... [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200322_120143.jpg"]191514[/ATTACH] I do keep the head stamp sorted and I anneal all my brass except 6.5 Grendel and 7.62x39. I have 7 AR's that I pieced together chambered in those two. My 24" 6.5 Grendel shoots range brass sub MOA at 400 yards all day long. I do sell some when I get too much piled up in my reloading room, helps me buy more bullets and powder. One thing I do in my rifles where I'm trying to achieve my best accuracy is go all out on case prep. I dont sort my bullets or nor weigh my cases. I have thought about it, but I'm not sure I can shoot good enough to see a difference. But I do the flash holes (at least after the first time I size the brass), brush out the necks, clean the pockets and trim all cases to the exact same length. And I anneal those cases before I size them. One thing I dont really get...once you fire brand new brass, it becomes once fired brass! But all these guys reload it and shoot it more...o_Oo_Oo_O;):cool: [/QUOTE]
