[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 29853, member: 1007"] Also, I had planned on going out to Knik this weekend. That might be a better time for both of us to hook up and shoot some. I only have the one 308 at this time, but its a real dandy of a rifle. Its similar to the M40A1 rifle, except it has the M24 twist of 11.25 vs the M40A1 twist of 12. This rifle has shot a .000 3 shot at 100 yards and a .341" at 300 yards. Thats not to say it does it all the time, but it never shoots bad. I have occasionaly taken this rifle to 1k and does very well. The current load I am using now I know quite well out to 600 and fairly well to 800 but need to learn it at 1k. I have no idea if the 178 AMAX will stay stable that far with the 2610 MV I am getting. The ballistic calculator says it should, but I have had other loads that "should have been" more than stable to 1k and went through sideways. So far the only 2 bullets Ive ever shot straight holes that far with are the 155 Palma and the 175 SMK. Not even the 180 SMK went straight. The 150 Nosler Ballistic tip went side ways also. Anyway, let me know if that would be a more convienient time. [/QUOTE]
