I have been shooting .280AI for years. Current rifle is Wby Backcountry which is very easy to haul around and is accurate. 140 gr Badlands Bulldozer 2 in front of StaBall 6.5.

Similar to Gunin4m my S&G had some disc slip. As an example: original comb 8-28-81. I kept trying one digit either direction until I found sweet spot at 7-27-80. Works fine ever since.

Bass Pro Shops< Las Vegas, has Reloder 26 in stock as of 02/17/2020 at 11:45 am.Don't know how much, but I got two pounds.

Tract Optics running a close out special on Turion 3x9 for $274.00. Very nice glass.

I have been awaiting the availability of the Federal Edge TLR Bullets for reloading. I have emailed the folks at Federal for quite awhile with estimated delivery dates that fall by the wayside. Has anyone found these bullets anywhere??? Specifically the .284 in 155 grain. Federal creates all the...

This would be a wonderful addition to the Mark V 7mm Wby I just ordered for my 6 day old grandson.

Great info,and I originally told Nate I was going to concentrate on Bergers. I have been working with 160gr Northforks as an elk bullet. They are very very pricey, especially for load work up. Having said that, elk hunts aren't cheap. Bullets can be a challenge for tuning in for acceptable...

Sorry, just looked back at your original thread. My barrel is 25" with one of Nate's muzzle breaks in totals 26". Since the rifle has some weight to it, I probably didn't need the break but as I get older I am finding recoil more bothersome at the range. In the field, no big deal if you do your...

I had Nate from SSG build a rifle in 7mmDakota for me a few years ago. It is very very accurate and a great example what custom rifles should be. I used a Bartlein fluted barrel with a heavy sporter contour. The twist is 1-9 with the 5R rifling which was made famous by Boots Obermeyer from...

This would be a great start for a new build. Thanks, yomill (Dan)

Midsouth Shooters now, 5/16/2013, has Norma Powder in inventory for order. I made a substantial order as this stuff disappears quickly. No 217, but I think Norma recalled it for some reason. They do have URP/MRP/204 .

Have a small amount of Norma on backorder with Powder Valley. Western Powders is packaging as fast as they can I guess. I was able to get my two 1lb cans of MRP confirmed yesteday, but have not heard of Western sending out any 8lb containers as yet. I would think the original shipment to...

GRAF, Powder Valley, MidSouth, and Midway are all showing it on their product offerings. It is showing up on their sites in trickles. Powder Valley had MRP and 203-B yesterday, in 1lb lots only, and today only 203-B remains. You have to check all the sites daily and hope to get your order in...

Sherri Swanson, from Western Powders, was the person I originally talked with at the SHOT show. They did have larger "mock up" canisters for NORMA powder on display. Since they are now receiving the powder in bulk and packaging it themselves I would think the 4 or 8 pound containers will be...
