    Browning x-bolt 6.5 creedmoor, help

    I had/have same issue with my son's 270 Xbolt. I have tired different ammo, scope, rings, etc. I have lost count of how many times I have torqued and re torqued everything. I had barrel scoped by a smith. Not fouled or shot out. Browning's bedding job was awful. Smith thinks it's related to the...

    There is a reason I won’t ever own another Vortex product. Why outfitters I know won’t use them and don’t recommend them to their clients. But if people aren’t allowed to speak about these issues on forums. Yet allows the supporter hype it never forces them to get the quality control issues in...

    Pick your brain (loading for 26 Nosler)

    Redding dies are on the way. I found a great price on a 3 die set. Bonus since I had a $25 gift certificate from them due to an earlier order/mixup . micrometer seater, Fl with carbide button and a neck sizing die. Got the last one. ;). Sadly Forster has no plans of making dies for the 26...

    Pick your brain (loading for 26 Nosler)

    Everything I have read US869 keeps the pressures down compared to some of others in 26. (seems to be what the 26 wants), and doesn't have the issues some of other powders can cause in the 26 Nosler. It interesting when looking at all the data and following how quickly that pressure changes but...

    26 nosler

    If I'm not mistaken it's this forum where I found several posts about people reporting the new Hornady's in the 26 Nolser were fouling the barrel within 6-7 shots tops. But weren't having issues with other brands. Haven't really read that about other 6.5 cals having issues with the new Honrady's...

    Pick your brain (loading for 26 Nosler)

    Mama bought me a Christensen Arms Ridgeline for my bday. It's got their 1/8 select match 26 inch carbon fiber wrapped barrel. From what I gather it looks like US869 and the Nolser Acu140 or ACULR 142's will be my best bet if I want the heavier bullets for most part I plan on shooting the...

    Looking for someone to hunt Western states

    If you want, shoot me a message. 43. I have been hunting since 5. We moved to AZ from IL last year so, I'm still getting myself geared up for for rifle hunting, they way I want to be. IL is a slug gun state and tree stand hunting is what's worked best for me 90 percent of time. I was big into...

    New Guy from Arizona

    Antelope I think are the unobtanium, with some of points I have heard others have accumulated. I put in for mostly early bull type hunts. My chances are ZERO and I know it. I'll either get the first draw luck or strike out, most likely striking out. So then question is where to go other state...

    ? load data 30.06 Berger 168/180 vld/hunt reloader 22

    Nosler list it for the 30.06 in Accubond's. Hence why I asked. I just didnt pick it. Suposed to be top performers for the 180 Accutips with 30.06. So why I bought the reloader 22 after reading the Accutip data. I have the Accutips too.. But hadn't see any other data for it with the .06...

    ? load data 30.06 Berger 168/180 vld/hunt reloader 22

    Thank you Phil, I don't think you guys have any data for realoder 22 and 30.06 in 165/185 vld hunting. I already hit you guys up. I was going to use one of powders from your manual for testing but also wanted to have realoder 22 in mix since I already have it. With final goal of whatver...

    ? load data 30.06 Berger 168/180 vld/hunt reloader 22

    Thank you. Yeah, we got lucky the snow missed us. Couldn't believe snow numbers when I saw for flagstaff and Snow whatver. Felt like spring was almost over with weather we had (had been getting) What Berger sent me looks like straight from their pages and nothing for reloader 22. I keep...
