Kenai2 HD 25-60X80mm VS GR HD 12-40x60mm Looking for your experience with one, or preferably both of these scopes to decide if the reduced obj and zoom on the GR is worth it. I have a great opportunity to get one of these Leupolds at a price that puts me into the High-Quality spotters...

Seems to go in spurts. Been a while since H1000 has been available. Check online at your favorite stores or these sites keep updated stats on certain online retailers. I ended up finding most of my powder at the Sportsmans, a local gunshop and Bass Pro locally. Saves the $28 hazmat fee...

10guage: I expected some troubles with that. Which brings other questions as well, such as what size, as it would depend highly upon how the necks are sized. My guess would be to form the brass, get a reamer that just barely touches the major diameter and cleans up the doughnut. Is this...

Haha Mudrunner, just have another one you'll feel better! BTW, did you get to shoot that 300wm in the 700 5r yet? Mine didn't like any 180gr bullets but got the 210 VLD at 3/4 moa without testing seating depth yet. I started at 72gr of H-1000, pressure signs beginning at 79.2 and settled on...

Thanks, Matt. Has the Nosler been good brass for you in the Roberts? Chris

I thought the 257 Roberts was pre-war and the 244 Rem didn't come around til the fifties? Either way, my concern is that with the extra thickness of the +P cases during reform, and whether or not Nosler's Top-Dollar brass (specifically in this case) is worth it? My other options are emptying...

**Edited title to say "Nosler"** With the lack of 6mm Brass, I was considering buying the now-plentiful .257 Roberts +P brass to form 6mm Remington...but a couple questions arise: As .257 Roberts is the parent case for the 6mm Rem and works fine to re-form, will the thicker brass of the +P...

The BT is a good bullet for deer but has a little bit of a rep for being more frangible than some shooter's desires. In your RUM it's probably better suited for long shots where the velocity is less, or soft-tissue shots (not shoulders) at closer ranges. I believe this bullet is intended more...

Rob, PM on it's way. Chris

Dean, I'll send you a PM here shortly. Chris

I have some old Winchester-Western 25-06 brass, 20 primed and 20 unprimed, and W-W Positive Expanding Point bulllets in 90 and 120 grain, about 100 bullets in each box (see pics). Brass doesn't appear to have been fired, and the bullet boxes appear to be full, but no guarantee all 100 are...

I have a box of these old bullets that I do not need. Not sure if it's all 100 but the box is pretty full, as you can see in the pic. If you can use em, just cover the the shipping and I'll mail em out. Chris

12-26...added .257 Roberts Chris

I'll need at least 100, preferably 200 to get Grandpa's 'ol deer rifle a good load. Once-fired is fine, but I prob need to stick with the same make. Thanks in advance!! Chris

Budlight: I know what you mean with trying the new stuff, I suppose that's why the superformance peeks my interest. It's a 300 yd deer and pig gun so I don't plan on getting too technical with a whole host of components as long as it doesn't give me fits. Tricky: by "cut neck length" do you...
