Thank you Terry...

I haven't heard anything consistent with the above. Maybe someday. For now, I think there's too much historical time proven data for staying with the current standard. There will always be outliers, and to each their own. I'm all for a better mousetrap; but on this topic, I'd hazard a guess that...

Two or three years ago, I confirmed with Hart that they produced the barrels for the early 7mm tubes. When I enquired about specs, I received the following info: "For the twist rate on those 7mm, they used a 9" twist (to stabilize 168 grains) the contour was a Sniper taper which is 1.200 x...

In a recent interview, Danny Coulson, the creator and first commander of HRT referenced M14 rifles that were deployed by the HRT Sniper Team during the CSA operation in northern Arkansas in April 1985. Coulson said that the M14s were deployed due to the short ranges involved on that...

Yes, .308 Win. Sorry, I neglected to mention that important detail! It seems like the profile of this bullet should be fairly tolerant of some jump but it's worth a try.

Haven't played with seating depth yet, everything so far has been to COAL listed by Nosler, 2.620".

I've been trying to work up a load with these but haven't had a lot of luck. Although marketed and intended for gas autos, I've only loaded them for my bolt guns thus far. I know bonded bullets don't typically perform like match pills but I'd expect they'd hold better than 1.5 to 2 MOA. Anybody...

Looks like I'll be ordering one as well, maybe we should get a group buy going in the PX!

Photos as promised! As you can see by the position of the front sight, my barrel is clocked a little off!

I've got all of the books you mentioned plus all of Jim Owen's materials. I'm far enough down the rabbit hole now I'm not sure I can see the light anymore! Part of what I guess I'm getting at is considering the upgrades I've already done and plan to do (bedding), how much tighter would one...

I'll have some pics up soon, stay tuned!

Realistically, I'd like to be able to hold 1 to 1.5 MOA with iron sights consistently from a supported position, i.e., bechched and bagged. Offhand, I'd be tickled with keeping everything in or very near the black but that in my opinion is more of a function of form, fundamentals and wind...

Thanks for the feedback, it's greatly appreciated! The group in the picture is with irons, NM front and GI rear. I've been shooting with a 6 O'clock hold. I've been considering trying a sub 6 hold based on the suggestions in Jim Owen's materials. Have you had better luck with a center hold? I...

I've made the Springfield Loaded M1A that I purchased nearly 20 years ago my latest project. So far, I've made the following accurizing upgrades: 4.5-5lb NM trigger job, shimmed gas cylinder, NM ferrule and handguard mods and NM op rod spring guide. Rifle is sitting in a Boyd's walnut stock...

Still available??

Ttt

I'm looking for an AI Handstop, #1032. They're discontinued now. If anyone has one that they're willing to part with please let me know. I found one F/S in this section but the member isn't responding to messages... Thanks!

I have 3 NXS tubes, 2 of them on duty rifles. They're still pretty relevant depending on application...

I'm on the wait list, hopefully the wait isn't too long! Best two stage option for the 455 I've seen so far.

Threadcutter308, I've never heard of or seen ICHS in once fired brass but the thought did cross my mind. No indications of case head separation in this case.
