Failure to fire.. bad primers?

Loaded up some 260 with Federal gold medal primers. The primers were from about 2018 but always kept in a sealed ammo box . Had about every third one not go ‘boom.’ I think I’m getting a decent primer strike and even attempted to fire one of the rounds a second time.. no joy. Is it common to have a ‘bad batch’ of primers or am I missing something? Thanks!

Unimpressed with new stuff at the range

So with hunting season around the corner I reached into the safe and pulled out my pre-39 model 70 that belonged to my grandfather and wandered to the range. Simple rig, original walnut stock, steel butt plate, original dog bone barrel with original irons and front sight hood, bedded, 6X scope, 150 gr BT over IMR 4895 (actual IMR 4895 in the tin cans, still have a few left).

I fired my obligatory five rounds, collected the target, cleaned the rifle and cased it. Still shoots better than moa. That rifle has put meat on the table going on a century. Looking around at others on the range, one or two not having much success with their brandy new rigs I realized how perfectly satisfactory the old rig is.

Bottom line is no matter how much you reinvent the wheel, it's still a wheel.

Precision Rifle Gear Help me decide

Context:

Been shooting .308, which I absolutely love, but hardish to track and have tried various MB's and Suppressor for PRS. Got behind a 6CM for the first time and a warm fuzzy feeling washed over me as though I were back behind a .22, enjoying the uninterrupted view of impact as a gaggle of geese flew by.
giphy-2.gif


After a bit of research, the GT seemed to make the most sense due to barrel life and I reload, however, sometimes it's nice to buy a hundred rounds and not worry about it (I have young kids, time is a constraint sometimes). Sooo

1. 6CM or the Gay Tigre?
2. Have an opportunity to purchase a lightly used 6CM Bergara Premier Competition. 200 < rounds. No problems/function, this style was just not for them.

It's chambered in 6CM and from my perspective a massive bang for the buck, considering the premier action, MPA and TT. The only thing I don't like about it (other than a few ppl's views on Bergara, never owned one and can't say) and the fact that I love Tikka, is the bolt throw. However, at 1900, maybe I actually love 90 degree throw now.

I want to upgrade, but I don't want to spend more than 2400 on the rifle, all in. So do I build a GT for that budget (if I even can) or does the benefit of everything you get with Bergara at that price make it a no brainer in 6CM?

Looking hard at Zeiss LRP S3 6-36. Any users out there?

Thoughts on Tract Toric UHD stuff? Big price difference between the two, but curious. I heard there was some relation to Nikon back in the day. Did they take over their tech or tooling?

Thanks!

Firearms Kelbly Action w/ Xlr Envy JV - $1k

Against my better judgement I’m going to get rid of a project rifle that I don’t need to start with.

Details are the following:
Kelbly BlackBear Tactical - SA, RH, 308 BF
6bra barrel 26” threaded 5/8”-24, unknown round count, unknown make, and unknown smith - basically just a fireform/place holder barrel
Xlr envy Chassis JV version with Ergo grip. (Needs buttpad) everything else is there.

Trigger hangar is on its way, but included in the price

Askin $1000 + Insurance cost. For anyone one that knows about these actions they are discontinued but are extremely nice and absolute tanks. Can’t buy an action for even this price, let alone the chassis. I have talked with Kelbly and they said they would support the action for its lifetime

It’s a flat bottom steel tactical action that takes AICS mags. Integral lug and integral rail, and one of the smoothest on the market.

Only trades are:
Bighorn origin/TL3 Steel light contour 6.5creed or 6.5prc barrel
Hunting oriented stock - KRG bravo, Manners w/ mini chassis, McMillan

an influencer attitude question

there seems to be a noticeable disconnect on several things that i read from different people i follow. i mostly watch tucker,napolitano and many that they both feature. eg macgrgor,ritter,sachs,several others. most seem to deny or downplay the threat from china. i happen to believe that chins is the biggest threat to america,except our own gov of course. what i hear from them about russia,ukraine,deep state,NWO,3rd world invasions,trump are well within what i know to be true from multiple sources. most place israel in the atrocity bunch with pol pot,hitler,stalin etc. not much discussion about long standing arab/muslim terrorism.
i guess my puzzlement is that commentary about those issues is not consistent with the denial of china being an active working threat. the fact that 3 of our last presidents were taking payola from china complicates the question. i have read the "100 year marathon" and believe it's content.
so,are "my guys" just wrong,under chinese influence,nieve? or,am i seeing an inconsistency that is not there?
doubts about one's belief system and accuracy of data intake can be helpful but need to be dealt with one way or the other.

KRG Bravo vs MDT ORYX

I recently purchased a Howa 1500 SA Barreled Action in 308 with a 16.25 Barrel. Now I’m debating between a KRG Bravo or MDT ORYX for it. This will be my first bolt rifle. I’m use to AR types of rifles. I won’t be lugging the rifle around. It will be used out of a hunting blind, tripod or some other type of rest. I’m leaning towards the MDT due to being use to the pistol grip from the AR platform.

Any of you own or have experience with both? I know the MDT weighs more but feel like it will help with less felt recoil. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Is Your bank on the list?

PVA's In Stock Clean Up Sale - It's back with massive discounts

Every couple of years we get a couple of shelves full of various prefits that come from cancellations, changes, etc that need to go somewhere other than take up space in the shop. It's now that time and here's the list link to buy some killer prefits (and one barreled action) at an unbelievable discount.

The last two times we've done this we got a huge number of emails saying "I missed ______ can you make me another one for the same price" and "Can you hold _____ for me until such and such date".

That's not the point of this sale, so without trying to be crass about it, we are not going to reply to those requests.
Here's a partial list of what's up, the complete list is on the website link below. As you can see we've sorted and inventoried these very carefully to make sure all the details are correct.

Idaho chem trails, WTF?

Yesterday evening we watched these start at the Montana / Idaho border and go through N Idaho to the Washington border. This has been a terrible year for growing. Home gardens along with big farms have had a really poor turnout. All the sunflowers I see are facing away from the sun. { have photos} The Governor should grab his balls and have the NG shoot these enemy aircraft down. I can't believe there are so many retards that try to explain these away.
