    Powder humidity changes inside loaded cartridges

    Right now (Spring) in the Denver CO area we have 24% humidity (according to my Kestrel). I think we range somewhere from 15% - 60%. I think I am going to change from the normalizing method of decreasing the humidity content of the powder, to stabilizing it at 49%. The goal for me is more...

    Powder humidity changes inside loaded cartridges

    Ahh, yes that is what I was talking about. After talking with some folks, I was doing a different process, of trying to normalize the powder to my local humidity levels. 1. mix all my powder into a large bin 2. leave the powder out to dry for several weeks in the winter 3. re-pack the powder...

    SOLD $1250 Used Tikka 6 Dasher Competition Rifle

    Thanks, I agree - great entry level rifle without breaking the bank. The person selling it purchased an Impact barrelled action and is putting it in a Manners stock, just upgrading their system, and they can't afford to keep 2 :-).

    Accuracy International AT-X

    As a note - for me, the new safety components and the updated bolt assembly are the biggest updated features I am looking forward to. The other cosmetic features I could care less about, and I agree for most people - no reason to switch over in any hurry. The AT-X is still the same exact rifle...

    Sorry, lots of post since this one. I want to run what I am selling, and be able to speak about both. I also like the additional safety features. I want to keep parts compatibility with new stuff coming out in the future My cost is less than retail so the price isn't as big of an impact I...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    Wait for the AT-XC's to start shipping and buy a used one. I will likely sell mine for somewhere in that price range once I have the new AT-XC.
