I didn't have any rl26 when i worked up loads for both of our 6.5 prc. Found h4831 worked out amazing. .3 moa. With the 140 berger. Haven't shot lighter yet. 3053 fps. Both the ruger American go wild and wife's browning hells canyon shoot this load amazingly. Just an option if rl26 or h1000...

Try using silencer central out of sioux falls. We have used them for 5 cans. 22 up to the 50 bmg. The 50 sounds like a 223. Amazing if you have ever touched of one of those bad boys. They make it super easy. The banish 30 works great for 30 and under. My wife's 6.5 prc is just a big whoosh...

I have an old savage 110e 7 rm i bought in college. So you know it was cheap. Lol. (1979). Shot the rifling out of it. With the help of info on here i slapped a new criterion barrel on it. New stock. Loaded up multiple loads. Finally found rl26. Shoots lights out with 68 grain of rl26, 168...

Merry Christmas from central iowa....thanks to all of you for all the amazing info on this site. More than i could learn in 2 lifetimes blowing **** up in my guns. Lol. My kids are learning this stuff 40 years sooner than me. Be a while till they out shoot my wife and me though. But here's to...

I have used a pair of Cabelas guide series binos for to years. Their glasses are as good as the Swarovski and ziess guys have had in my hunting groups. We were watching herds of elk in Colorado one year b4 daylight on a mountain probably 1 mile away, no one could see them through their...

I too thought twice about the creedmoor. However I have 4 now. Its probably the easiest round to find anywhere. I reload a lots of different calibers....243, 22-250, 222, 30-06, 300 wby, 356 win, have for 40 years. The 6.5cm with its bullet selection out there and the hype has opened up a...

Im sorry if my pic did that. Still lmao......didnt mean to do that. Just proud of the little rifle. Still lmao.....my dad has a ruger precision rifle. I believe he feels this way when i get the 400 dollar rifle out . However his rem 783 just about out shoots my ruger. I love to see him smile.

Here's my Ruger American Predator. Its fun to out shoot people at the range with it

I shoot a 6.5 cm also. But shoot game past 700 is kinda like yoga pants. Just because they make 4x yoga pants doesn't mean you should wear them

How much 100v are you using....what bullet

I am also using imr 4320.it gives me 1 hole shots in my ruger American go wild.

I sent you a message. Dont know if i did it correctly. Try to reach out to you about a new build. Just curious if you got it

I shoot an optima with 120 grains of pyrodex and 349 powerbelts. Shot an elk last fall at 140 yds. In the lungs. Did the trick. I use the tru glow sights on my rifle. Very happy. I have to clean the gun after about 5 shots. In the field i use windex wipes cut into squares. I friend of mine in...

I too love the lever guns. I have 2 model 94 AE in 356 win. One to hunt with, one to look at. The looker is a Rocky Mountain Elk Fountain rifle . Also have a RMEF blr in 7 rm. Neither of the RMEF rifles have been fired. I handload for the scoped one. I shoot a nosler partition 225 first and...

My wife and i both drew bull tags for muzzleloading season this year. I was hoping for only one tag but we both got them. We hunted in sw Co. Area 71. We hunted in deep every day, 3 to 6 miles on on foot which is a bunch for Iowa flat landers in their 50's. We only saw 6 cows and this 6 x 6. We...
