    300 weatherby build

    You said it was a Win 70 right? Normally only WBY rifles have freebore. Some other manufacturers did it but not many. I WOULD NOT LOAD TO MAG LENGTH until you know where the lands are. Tweaking seating depth shorter could tighten groups up but also do the stock work. Remove as many variables as...

    .300 H&H + 208 Amax

    That is a classic rifle in a classic chambering. Don't know if all the upgrades will ultimately get you the rifle you want. The .300 H&H is the parent case for a lot of modern magnums, my .300wby included. Granted you don't want to push the H&H as hard as some other magnums ( shoulders angles...

    What's the beef with belted magnums?

    I have to disagree with you on this one. There isn't a standard fl die on the market that will size all the way down to the belt. Period! There is a gap between the belt and where the die comes down to and the case web can swell in that area. I can take unsized once fired brass from another...

    What's the beef with belted magnums?

    Why was your rebarrel a disaster? Because you couldn't use your fired brass? One of the isssues with belted Magnus is fl sizing. I know people are going to come down on me for this. When the cartridge gets fired it expands, when we do resize we push the brass back down towards the head...

    300 weatherby build

    Trigger and a muzzle break. Some people can handle recoil better than others but the .300wby is a sharp hit. If the gun is capable of sub moa accuracy, it is only warming up at a 1000. I shoot 180 ttsx for hunting but the gun really shines with 200+ gr bullets. I think there is an accubond that...

    Temp sensitive powder and fps ?

    Your Density altitude alone could easily put you off by .5 mil. A chrony is usually +/-1%. There is your margin error. Your numbers ( fps, bc ) could be perfect, your can have 0temp variance and you could be off that much. Nothing replaces actually shooting at range and getting good DOPE.

    260 Rem and RL17 load questions

    I'm shooting a Stevens 200 w' Criterion 26" 1 in 8 .260. Since the last election when powder, primers dried up I no longer rely on just one load. So I used H4350, IMR4350 and RL-17 so far with Amax and Barnes Match 140 gr bullets. All loads are roughly pushing 2875 fps. 43.0 gr RL17/ 140 gr...

    K-16 upper

    I purchased a K-16 a couple years back. I wanted a varmint rifle and already had 2 other AR's so I thought I would stick with the AR platform. Saw the K-16, 16" heavy barrel, full floated fore end, etc. Couldn't pass on the price and after doing some research, supposed to have good barrels, I...

    300 weatherby mag.

    Alright, lets clear up some stuff. My .300 wby can make a 1000 in its sleep, so there is no need to cram a bunch of any powder to get it to a 1000 yds. but you can if want. First I would like to state that the interlock is a hunting bullet and not a long range match type bullet. I would develop...

    Tubb's final finish

    I've used it and would only recommend it if you have issue with your barrel. My .300 wby had accuracy issues but most of all it copper fouled like a pig. It took me close to an hour to clean the bore. Used the tubbs, accuracy improved but most of the fouling is minimal. I would look at TFF as...

    Help with 300 Weatherby brass resizing problems

    I've been loading my .300 Wby for about 5 yrs. now. I bought a bunch of components from a lady who's husband past away. My rifle wouldn't chamber any of his fired brass. Also, on some of my hotter loads I was only getting 2-3 firings before they wouldn't chamber. The problem was that the FL die...
