Yes. The hybrid 46 with 30 cal 3 port anchor brake has a very noticeable amount less recoil than my tbac 338 ultra when shooting my lightweight 300 norma improved. The scythe with 3 port anchor brake has a very noticeable amount less reticle movement than my tbac dominus sr which weighs more...

Thanks guys. Im really happy with it. I had previously set 900 yds as my personal limit on elk with this rifle due to the velocity and energy combination. Ill do a test with my norma improved soon. It has alot less wind drift. Even though the norma improved has a 22" barrel on it also there...

Well I got to do a 890 yard 10 shot cold bore test with my 22" 300 WSM and 215 bergers at 2670 fps. I waited atleast 12 hours between each shot. Sometimes a couple days. Direct thread Silencerco Scythe TI was taken off between each shot and scope was returned to zero. Wasn't dead calm when I...

Well I got my new lightweight 22" 300 WSM rifle finished up. I got the barrel broke in and loads roughly finalized but wanted to wait until the new Silencerco Scythe-TI suppressor came in before I finalized the loads. I got the suppressor in Friday and threw the 3 port anchor brake on it to...

thats awesome. theyre definitely stupid accurate. Im gonna be spinning up a 36" Benchmark barrel here soon for a ELR setup. Itll be throated specifically for the 245s. Im thinking the cupcake load will be over 3100 fps. Warm load would be over 3200 without a doubt. But I look for mild and...

I haven’t done much testing w the 245 eol to be honest. It shot good but the bc wasn’t high enough to make me switch from 220-230 gr bullets. The 245 lrht has a high enough bc it’s worth it.

Thanks. I didn’t mess w seating depth too much but .023 off shot the best.

Well yesterday was the calm before the snow storm. Wind was fairly calm so I decided to test out a node with the 22" barrel 300 norma improved and the Berger 245 gr LRHT. Id gotten the barrel broke in/done speeding up last weekend. I tested n570 and there was two nodes that were each over a...

Couldn't sleep so I decided to go and spin up a Benchmark 22" 8.5 tw 30 cal into a 300 Norma Improved for my Bat Vesper build. Dial Indicator read zero runout on the chamber and the bore micrometer said it was the same exact size as the reamer. Perfect Chamber. Gonna be running the new TBAC...

Thank you. No problem feeding in a long action Hawkins hunter mag with the mag spacer in it.

Heres a sweet little compact 300 WSM tack driver that I finished up this week for a customer. Has a 22" barrel on it. It ended up tuning at 2660 fps with a 215 berger. Barrel hasn't sped up yet. I shot it at 100 and then opened a new jug of powder for it as the customer is taking 24 lbs with...

I guess Ive seen a couple guys do that before. I won't do it as i have the barrel lengths I need for builds on the shelf. I cant go less than 22" at the moment in my lathe. Ill build a setup soon that will allow a little shorter. But the demand for shorter than 22" has been almost non...

no. they have a collar on the end of them that will be the shoulder for the muzzle threads. there is a stub extending past the collar that measures .638 or so. turn it down a hair for 5/8x24 threads and your good to go.
