I lost faith in the RL17 and have recently gone to Viht N540 with the Berger 168 Hybrids. Very good results so far.

I've been shooting 65gr RL17, Fed 210, norma brass, 3.0" OAL, Berger 168gr Hybrid, 3180fps. I'm no target shooter and although I sometimes do better, .75"@ 100m is what I can consistently produce with this load. At 500 meters i was able to stay within 2.5". 3180 is pushing the upper end and i...

I found myself in a similar situation. I had Sako 75 Finnlight in 243, it had been an exceptionally accurate rifle and I stuck with the barrel to the bitter end. I decided to re-barrel to 6.5-284 and set off down that path. The first thing i did was to have the magazine modified to suit the case...

I'm using Lee collet dies for my 300 SAUM and Redding comp dies for my 7WSM. Cost being a consideration or not, the Lee die's a great piece of gear. Before I first used them I stripped them down as directed to clean and re-lube them, I took the opportunity to look at the "quality" of machining...

I'm waiting on RL 17 to reach the shops here in NZ, still about 2-3 weeks off! When it does I'll be trying it in my 7mm WSM with moly 162gr A Max. Will post results. :) Has anyone tried Retumbo?

I've been using the 95 VLD as a hunting projectile in my 243 and have tried them from a 10 thou jam to 130 thou jump with very little variation in accuracy. With .240 of bearing surface in the neck and 150 thou jump you have a lot to play with. When I had the 95's touching the lands they were...
