What is everyone's experience with Kirby's Raptor actions?

What are yalls suggestions? I've got a 260 rem, that'll be used for deer inside 300 and pigs and varmints beyond that. I've got a Hi Lux 7x30 scope

Thanks all, I'm waiting on my dies, and I'll start working up my load. I've got 100 140g Berger VLD, 100 Lapua cases, and 8 lbs of H4350. I picked that powder, as it will give me nearly 100% fill at 41.1 grains and velocity right around 2700 FPS. I'm thinking of working the powder up from...

I'm a newbie, thats bewildered. My rifle is a savage 12 LRP - 260 Rem. I sighted it at 100 yards and was shooting right at 1 moa, with 140 g core lokts. Took it on a doe clean out, and dropped 5, all with very good shots. Last weekend took it to the range to qualify past 300 yards, and was all...

Boys, what can yall suggest for a 56 year old man. I Don't have unlimited funds (scrape to make it happen) so it'll have to be primitive. I'm not in the best of shape, so I'll have to start a excercise program. I've got a stock Sps 7mm mag, 12 LRP 260. Crew Ranger. Just point me in the right...

I bought a Hi Lux 7x30x50 for a little under 300. Sig Saurian long ranch school uses them on their rifles

That will help a lot with the VLD's. Thanks for nothing.

I recently purchased a savage 12 LRP in 260 rem. I've got 200 140g VLD, 8 pounds of H4350, and 100 lapua cases. I'm loading with a Forrester coax. I'm new to reloading, but have done a lot of homework. My question is What is the most reliable method of determining COAL, or maybe better phrased...

Gents, Just bought a Savage 12 LRP - 260 Remington. I'm planning on reloading with VLD 140g, Lapua brass, H4350, and CCI primers. Think I'm go to go, just need help to determine the best method of measuring COAL. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Oh, new to hand loading so, if I...

I just got an email from midway, got 8lbs of H4350 that's been back ordered since Jan. it feels like Christmas came early.

What about that mil dot reticle? Why are MOA turrets available? I'm not well versed on the mil system and prefer MOA, but it would be crazy not to have MOA in both reticle and turrets.

I've been looking at this scope to sit on my LRP-12 in 260 remmy. Seems it is only offered with a mil reticle, yet turrets are MOA??? Anyone shed some light on this, I much prefer MOA.

Sonic cleaning huh? I've got a tumbler and using SS rods, I wonder if that is a little harder on the brass?

Anyone used Millet before? Ive read all the reviews on the different clearinghouses, but nothing very definitive. I'm looking at the LRS-1, 6-25x56. About a 500 scope. I plan on shooting it 600 yds plus and targets and pigs.

Thanks Joejo, thinking the same way. I'm thinking I'll just resize the neck. Any tips on your loads? How many reloads are you getting to a case?
