    7mm stw or 28 nosler?

    This was the 28 nos I just built, I accidentally cut my threads too deep on the muzzle end when threading so it ended up a 25” instead of 26” lol. Basic 700 rem accurized, bartlein 1:8 twist and my custom reamer with .290 freebore- all done on a super old southbend and 4 jaw chuck This was...

    7mm stw or 28 nosler?

    I just built another 28Nos again for hunting, went with SS instead of carbon fiber and shoots lights out with N570 and 195, cruises around 3050 or so 25" barrel. ADG brass sure helps, usually a low node and high node with n570 and it gets dirty quick

    Cooling a barrel 🤔

    I cant remember where I got them, but amazon does carry them. Make sure they come with a sticky side on teh back.

    New Long Range Hunting/Tactical/ELR cartridge coming soon

    Your not kidding, might burn out faster than the 28 Nos

    What is your preference for trigger type and pull weight for long range hunting?

    I like a 1lb or less, tac sport pro, trigger tech diamond or jewel

    The PRC die "problem"

    I had pulled this one up yesterday, maybe they made a misprint on this reamer print. that was the only reason I really asked the question. But with .3093 it makes way more sense! Thanks

    The PRC die "problem"

    I noticed that! I'm Curious as to what makes you decide on a freebore diameter ranging from+ .0003-.001, for several different calibers? The BRA #1 has +.001 and the 300NMI has + .0003, to me being a bigger case and bore I would have thought at least a .309 or similar to the 30 nosler freebore...

    Keeping it simple with reloading

    Alex, Out of the different powder charges especially to .1 of a grain, what do you look for in the triangles at 1k that are overlapping? or what are you wanting to see? Curious as to what makes you go with a certain node compared to another at .1 grain with more or less vertical. Thanks

    430 Yard Audad 124 Hammer Hunter

    Nice ram! That is an awesome looking rifle! Is that a manners stock? Also what action?

    Zeiss, Leo VX5, VX6, or NF NX8

    we can agree to disagree on clarity and definition, but yes Leupold is a great option for weight saving especially for what you are accomplishing in your hunting rifles. 8lbs is impressive

    Reloading question. Switching to bushing dies.

    On all my new brass, I run a mandrel to open them up a bit, they will contract back and still give you neck tension for the first firing- on a 7mm neck I would use a 7mm mandrel. I like the 21st century ones . Lapua Brass is bad about being very tight necked from the factory. Some re-loaders...
