Npro7 will dissolve it. Just let it soak then brush it out.

Check shoulder bump your head space could be gone. Are you reloading neck sized only brass? Take a shot gun brass brush and clean chamber sometimes dirt can jam a fired case.

I live on a ranch --- this is not a truck gun from my point of view --- why the suppressor which by the way takes a year or so to get. I know because I use them for Tinnitus. Seems to me you may have already had your truck gun all picked out and built before your post, or you had a spare 6.5mm...

yep, any centerfire but a .270 is hard to beat 06 is good too.

Use the KISS formula. Truck gun means it will rattle around under the seat? If so open sights. If your goingnto jump out and shoot,yotes or badgers use a .223 with iron sights (spend a lot of time at he range) or protect the gun and put a 200 dollar scope on it. A savage in 223 is inexpensive...

Yes you can. Well said

Exactly. Depending on temperature humidity and altitude my groups range from 2 to 10 inches or 1 moa. If I can't dope the shot I don't take,it. Usually on elk. Deer are almost,always under 600 yards.

Thank you!
