I have a Sako S20 in 6.5 PRC- shoots as good as the shooter can all the way down to 1 hole groups (which I can rarely achieve). It's very light which is a big plus in my book for hunting. I have a Bergara HMR in 300 PRC that shoots .25 MOA with factory ELD-M 225 & 1 hole with hand loaded 230...

My understanding is that it isn't the brush that does the scratching, rather it is the abrasive materials inside the barrel that the brush dislodges and holds as the brush passes down the bore (of course the same could be said for patches). There is only 2 types of cleaning to my knowledge...

So, the 300WM is a belted magnum and since generally we no longer headspace off of the belt a bulge will start to form at/above the belt after a few resizings. This can eventually cause problems chambering resized brass. There is a specialty collet die that corrects this and that is really the...

Rabbit hole; fair enough. Swampfox: as a vet I get a 30% discount & on holidays like 4th of July, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, they have additional discounts so I have bought a few of their products. When I was pleased with the performance I bought more. As this is a LR Hunting forum I'll stick...

I own 2 Cronus Gen 1s & an Argos. I also own NF ATACR, US Optics B25, Leopold, Vortex, Swampfox, Arken, and probably a few other brands. I like the Athlons. No issues what so ever. I'm not sure I would run them long term on a 338 LM or 50 BMG as some have mentioned but to each his own. Probably...

Cool, I have a 6-24x50 Arken as well. Decent glass, beefy scope & great tracking. Have it on a Badrock 6.5PRC. Should be a great setup for you! So some things to check out... pull the action out of the stock and see if the epoxy paint has been removed from the mating surfaces of the...

I have the HMR in 300 PRC. It's a 1 hole gun with tuned loads & the right shooter ( I can rarely shoot better than .3-.25 MOA). You can call Bergara USA down in Georgia ((877) 892-7544) to ask about the build date. Depending on your opinion / plans for the scope it sounds like a reasonable deal...

I need to trim my 300 PRC brass & then I can start loading for the 250 A-Tips w/ US 869. I'll post when I get some results. Seems like the A-Tips like being seated well off the lands I am planning to start @ .050. Anyone else have seating recommendations?

Did you ever get a chance to try this? I just got 5# of 869 today. I have a couple hundred 250 gn A-Tips & 100 245 Berger EOLs. Took my 300 PRC to a mile a couple of weeks ago, hoping to stretch it out a little further.
