    Bullet selection for Axis deer/7PRC

    175’s will do fine and have been extremely easy to get to shoot well.

    Light weight magnum build options

    You already have the gun you need. You will not be able to top your 7 mag at sub 7 lbs ready to hunt.

    Advice Needed, Load Development

    My 7mag shot H1000 well but I was up around 70gr. Keep bumping the powder up till you find pressure. Your gun was throated for a 180 which means you can’t go by book/saami specs because you OAL is longer. Go toward 70 and if it doesn’t shoot, then try another powder. Re26 would be great if...

    Round Count to Start Load Development

    I usually fireform 30 or so pieces of brass and find a load(1/2 moa) that will do for a while. After 150 rounds I’ll go back and tweak the load.

    Redding Dies an Upgrade?

    Need to have a smith look at the chamber. If it’s getting stuck it could be an oversized chamber causing the brass to squeeze down too much in the die. Also could be all the marks on the brass from the chamber catching in the die.

    Arken releases 'lighter weight' 30mm tube options

    A video of how audible the clicks are. Mushy turrets suck. How do you know how they track, it’s a new design and might not track for ****.

    Breaking in a new gun today…

    Your throat could have been rougher than normal and caused the barrel to Copper up. I had a 300 win that took forever to break in and settle down without excessive Copper fouling. I’d shoot clean, shoot clean a few times then try 3 shot groups before cleaning. Do make sure you’re not jamming in...

    308 Barnes 130 Grain TTSX/Ramshot TAC

    I’d never swap from that combo if I was you. I wanted to do the same thing but couldn’t find any 130’s. I ended up getting some 150 maker Trex bullets (allot like Barnes). Getting 2900 in a 20” barrel with excellent accuracy. About to try it on some live targets.
