    SOLD/EXPIRED NEW 6.5 PRC Hornady dies (sealed/unopened), once-used brass, and factory ammo (PHOTOS)

    Yesterday, I sold my lightly used Mossberg 6.5 PRC rifle, and now have the rest of the ammo and dies to part with. The buyer bought 4-boxes and here's what's left. The Hornady ammo is $38/box.

    Do I need a 338 Rum?

    I had a couple 338 RUMs. SS and blue Remington 700s. They can be accurate, but a shooting session (with a muzzle brake) at the bench gave me a concussion. :D I sold them. They ARE devastating on game to say the least. - We had tags for elk and deer in the Sunlight Basin area, North of Cody, WY...

    Does anyone know at what pressure sticky bolt lift occurs?

    I did the bolt-face truing cutter sequence. The barrel has to be removed. No more squeak n hard bolt lift.

    No. But a few years ago I bought some adg brass from creedmoorsports.com and also at the adg website. (7mm SAUM) = Get some via waiting list. (I got the standard, not polished brass.) There was no waiting period back then. I used Lapua brass in my M21 .308 that I had. It came with a Douglas...
