    Berger 270 150 VLD

    H 1000 worked best in my rifle. It is a 700 SPS with the light barrel and tupperware stock. It shoots about 1 inch at 200 yds.

    SOLD/EXPIRED Want to buy Safety

    Rifle Basix has them. But they are $31 a piece, you get the safety lever, clips, and I think the little pins.

    Steel practice targets

    You can buy new disk blades from any farm store. If you dont want to shoot through them get a couple and weld together, but by the time you spent the money for several you might be able to buy a target from one of the above sights.

    Jim Zumbo talks on Nugent forum

    This is just my opinion, but I don't think it matters how big or small a bullet I shoot, or how short or how far I shoot. It doesn't matter what kind of sights I use. If I want a .17 cal, .30 cal, 50BMG, or 100 whatever I should be able to have one if for no other reason than because I want one.

    Let's talk copper fouling

    Re: Let\'s talk copper fouling Have a gunsmith borescope it. I went and picked up my new 6.5-06 imp a week ago and took a barrel off of another gun. Granted it is a pretty high performance gun but after 35 rounds it is starting to get carbon fouling.

    Burris Xtreme Tactical

    This may have been asked before but a search did not turn anything up. What can I expect for quality, will they shoot the box, and are they worth the price? I have shot the Super Sniper scopes and Mark 4's but was looking for another option that would not break the bank as I have several...

    6.5 mm on R ultra mag case?

    I use 7 RUM cases on mine, and left the shoulder alone. You need to use ball powders because the stick powders will bridge and cause pressure spikes. Federal primers, they seem to be hotter. The only way to make full use of the case capacity is to use heavy for caliber bullets like the heavy...

    6.5 rum

    Toped out at 3475 with 140 class bullets. My first barrel ran into trouble after about 50 rounds. I also ran into powder bridgeing problems with stick powder. My local gunsmith rebarreled again and I am in the middle of working up loads for the new barrel. I have not done much because of the...

    Another Redding S die question

    JD Been away from the computer for a couple of days. Change the bushing and expander and your set. I use 7mm RUM bushing dies to load for 6.5 RUM. That was all I did and it works fine and cheaper than the $185 Redding wanted for the custom dies.

    Oppinions on Redding type S dies

    JD I have about 20 different carts in RCBS and recently bought 4 sets of Redding. I know it is personal taste to a point but I like the Redding dies. I can change several settings with out using a wrench on my dies. The last set I bought was a deluxe bushing die set for 7 RUM. Really nice...

    US869 powder and hang fire

    I have about 12,000 CCI primers of various sizes. I probably will not be using any more. Their is a chance I have a batch of bad primers, but I don't want to be in the position that every time I pull the trigger I will be asking myself is the gun going to go bang. This could be the only time...

    US869 powder and hang fire

    God bless Fed 215 primers. 8 shots and no hang fires. That was all I could get in before a thunder cloud ran me off. Had to pack up every thing and head in. Started at 85 and got up to 92 grs, this gave me 3300 fps with 140 SST. Thanks for the help. Will be next week before I can get back...
