I load for 37 currently. Started with .222 and 30/30 in 1974. Dropped .303 and 6.5 Swedish after I sold them.

I mounted my press on 2x6 about 12” long then c-clamp to kitchen table, island, picnic table, anywhere available when not set up in the reloading shop. I used to flip houses and didn’t always have a reloading area set up. A bit redneck, but that’s me.

I was hoping someone would be happy to talk about said match ammo. I sat at my home bench beside 4 custom 10-22’s with high $ optics using store bought match ammunition. I had been using out of the box ammunition in my TC Contenter match carbine when I was challenged to a match. I asked if I...

Believe it or not. My best grouping has been with Thunderbolt. They are nice chunky bullets that fill the bore. Catch is it takes some effort from the shooter. I start by sorting the ammo by 1/2 grain increments. When I get a brick sorted I sort the lots by rim thickness... that is your head...

Bob,What kinda bullets are you using? Impressive group!

Better reply quick to my own post for clarification. The 700 Rem is a 222

I gotta go with the 222 if I could only have one caliber/ they are tried and true with their root going back to bench rest competition.

Hang on there, would not want to miss-lead you.... That's 1500 kills not yards. I have not shot past 1300 yards. The 300 without a miss were between 2-350 yards.

Quite a hog there for sure! I have taken out over 1500 and have not seen such brut, nice work

It done it again.... Can a person not say now-a-days?

Don't you hate auto-spell stuff? Adams was meant to be me a days- spoken like a true redneck

Looks like a great rig. I am an old guy who is a one shot one kill kinda person. My Personal record on whistle pigs is 1500+ lifetime with 300 + without a miss. I grew up in Illinois hunting them to keep the critters from eating our bean fields. Now Adams in our area it is rare to even see one...

Reading below it looks like someone is in need of dies. [email protected]. I have a set of Koebel dies that reads 300 imp on them. No going to use them. My shoulder doesn't need the thump
