    Is annealing worth the hassle?

    I don't know if it helps on accuracy. I have only annealed my 270 wsm brass necked down to a 6.5 wsm. It definitely added to the life of the brass. I plan to anneal more of the calibers I load for.

    Wife wants a 6.5 heater, help me decide

    Hello Ohio Hunter, Take a look at taking a short mag and changing the barrel to a 6.5 wsm. Ballistics are very close to a 26 Nosler. In my 6.5 wsm with 26.5 grs less powder I was only around 18 ft/ sec slower using 140 Berger vld hunting bullets. So far they have been great on whitetail deer. I...

    26 Nosler - Hot rod for the 21st Century

    I bought a 26 nosler and I think it's a dud. The amount of powder it takes and the extra recoil compared to my 6.5 wsm convinced me to get rid of the 26 nosler. With 140 berger vld hunting bullets the velocity on the 26 nosler has about 15 ft/sec faster than but, takes 26.5 grains more powder...

    Remington 700 Long Range M40 stock

    I have sold several of these and own a 7 rem mag myself. So far I am very pleased with this gun. I'm still tweaking loads but almost everything I have loaded is less than 1 inch groups for 4 shots. The two 25-06's and 300 ultra mag I sold have been very accurate according to my customers. I have...
