I like Jim, if I don't like something I move along. I will say about some these YouTubers, when some of them do reviews they seem to always like what they are reviewing and seldom offer any negative views. One guy in particular (I won't name him) never posts a negative review on anything. I...

I bought an old Save 110 in 30/06 and had a Criterion barrel installed. I replaced the wood stock with a Bell and Carlson. The stock did make it pretty heavy which I felt in the mountains last year. I tried to put a Timney in but it wouldn't work because of the slop in the trigger pocket so...

I myself don't much like going over book max, how about you? I'm getting to the point where if I get an acceptable load and speed why push the limits? I don't know, I guess it's good til its not is the philosophy I am starting to take.

I am working with N560 right now. Can't find Alliant Powder anywhere.

I haven't noticed that but I haven't looked that closely either. I think I am getting about 2950 FPS with 162 grain ELDX bullets. I am currently trying some N560 and, so far, the speeds are slower, around 2850 FPS. I don't have any specific published data to follow so I have a little more...

I am using H4831SC. Have you tried any Vhitavouri?

24"

They threaded my barrel and did an excellent job. It works perfectly but, wow, that is high.

I think a progressive for 223 is the way to go. I have a Dillon XL750 and can't recommend it it more. I size and load in two separate steps. I have a toolhead that is used solely for sizing brass. I like to spray my brass with the homemade lanolin lube and run it all through the sizing...

I have a 280AI that is a hunting rifle. The stock is a standard stock, nothing special, from Bell and Carlson that has a sling swivel stud. I am looking at options to mount a bipod. I have a Harris which I have used but I have been kicking around getting something else for this rifle. Maybe...

This Nikon RifleHunter 550 Rangefinder is a great unit that works perfectly. I need one that reaches out further, otherwise I wouldn't be selling. Protective neoprene case included. No damage of any kind. Nikon RifleHunter 550 Laser Rangefinders give hunters the confidence to make long-range...

I have never delved in to the inside capacity of cases. I typically start with one brand of brass and stick with it. I'm curious to know how this goes moving forward.

I have actual Nosler 280AI brass. But if I didn't, I would have loaded up rounds in 280 brass and shot those.

I try to be very consistent with my loads. My mindset is changing a little but I have been known to get that detailed with it.

Is the screw in bolt attachment welded or machined?
