I run the 85.5 berger out of my 220 swift AI and it's a great bullet. Pretty easy to tune and holds up well to high speed and fast twist(7in) I'm hoping to prairie dog hunt this summer to see how they do on pdogs.

I bought 2 terminus zues actions for my kids. Like them so much I going to buy one for me

I'm personally building a 220 Swift AI with a 8 inch twist. Nosler and Norma both still make brass for it. Although these brands aren't ADG with the case capacity of the Swift AI you don't need to run 70K and higher pressure for that performance. Powders like Hodgens Super performance...

I'm basically in the same boat have 2 kids 9 and 10 that are ready for center fire rifles. I'm getting there's built in a 6 creed that will have a suppressor. I reload and will keep the pressures minimal to keep recoil down. I ordered a Masterpiece Arm youth chassis so I can fit the rifle to...

I agree its just like Christmas everytime a notification goes off. I got my first cellular camera a month ago. After 3 weeks of getting nothing done due to always checking notifications i had to turn of notifications 😒. Its very addictive if your not careful

Both are great cartridges but as been stated you can't compare custom loads versus one size fits all loads. I run a 270/26 Nosler and have it throated for 170 bergers on 27 inch bartlein barrel. My current load is 3250 with the 170s and I could maybe go over 3300 but never tried since it...

I have a 270/26 Nosler built with a 26 in bartlein barrel throated for the 170 Berger on surgeon action. If efficiency is a concern the 270 wsm is a better choice if not I'd go with 27 Nosler. If your looking to maximize the 27 Nosler in my opinion your better off forming brass from other...

This would be great. I would love a 6.5 or 270 SS prefit for a savage

I always thought Norma made Nosler brass as well but than I started finding the Norma brass for 26 Nosler Norma Brass - 26 Nosler - 100 Pieces - The Extreme Store Midway and a few other sites are selling it

Wondering if anybody has any experience with the Norma brass for the 26 Nolser. Step up from nolser brass in this cartridge?

I am wondering if the spring tension on the plunger of a surgeon action needs to be adjusted. I've recently had a rifle built off of a surgeon action and I appear to be getting ejector rings on the brass earlier than I think I should. When I originally picked up the rifle I tried loading a...

Hammer bullets are an excellent choice

Thank goodness I'm remodeling the house. A perfect time for French doors. :D

Yup...270/26 nolser and 156 hammer did the job well. :):) Turns out you don't need 338 Lapua's with 300 grain bullets to kill these animals :) Even at 730 yards I still had plenty of knock down.:D

I don't know his score. We flew him out of camp the next day and he was dropped off at the taxidermist by a friend. So I've not had a chance to actually measure him.
