I let my 12yr old daughter pick. Showed her all kinds of guns and she didn’t like any synthetic stocks as they were really light in the butt which made them feel front heavy. She liked the Browning Ab3 with the wood stock. Better balance. I put a 3-9 on it and the 6.5 creedmoor has little...

I have never found reloader 26. Been looking a while. Thanks for the load offer but I think I found a match for this gun.

I have used RL25 with 150gr bullets. A light load right now is my best yet for this gun. My Deluxe is a 1973. I took the pressure point off the front as it seemed to give me occasional flyers. Also the rosewood forend was showing a stress crack inside. All good now and seems way more stable. My...

All the same load this time. Was doing development previously and I was wondering if the scope was an issue or if it was the loads. This is not the gun I want to shoot a pile trying to find a load.

I have talley rings. Will take a look for pinch but it looked good

Too late now if I did.

Put another scope on. Two shot sight in. Very nice.

So went out and shot the first groups using US869 in the 26 Nosler. The right group was first and showed promise. I adjusted the scope over left and down as I want it 0.5” high at 100. The middle group was next. Seemed to over adjust and now groups left of center. Not to mention the down adjust...

I would guess the ceracote, brake , fluting and stock camo are the only difference. I have the HC speed and thats what I thought was different when I bought it.

Sorry for the late reply to the original questions I had. I tried pulling the decapper out and shimming and shaving the holder. And then shimming and shaving some more. It seemed to be getting better but maybe I was just loosing my mind. Then today I fixed it. I bought a new set of dies. Took...

Die and shell holder touch. Tried everything suggested in this thread. Will be trying the sandpaper on the shellholder next. I have not tried a different lube but will see what we have at the LGS. I will update with results.

Well it did everything I can exceptshave the shellholder. I had an RCBS and a lee holder and bought another RCBS. All the same. No made in China variance here. I will find a machinist and take the holder down a bit. Am I talking 1 thou? More less?? I did get my three cases I was messing with to...

Lee lube.

New loaded ammo. Shot once. I have the die screwed down and a bit more. Not sure unless the press is too small

i was resizing some 26 Nosler and the once fired not sized will chamber and the FL sized will not. I know my press is old like me but I don’t recall seeing anything like this before. I was watching YouTube and saw some reloaders size the same brass multiple times. I tried this and sized the...
