So I have been loading ammo for 30 years, mostly pistol. I can get my better rifles to shoot in the .6-.7" for 5 shots. Sometimes I hit the .5-.4" range but not common. I use standard hornady or RCBS dies, factory brass like federal or hornady. I use hornady and Sierra bullets, I weighed my charges and trimmed brass. Hand prime each case. I have a magneto speed chrono. I just started to adjust my dies to a .003" shoulder bump. My ES are not great but I can manage 6" groups at 600 fairly consistently and 1-1.5" @ 200 is common. I have a full custom rifle on the way, top of the line MPA with razor G2 4x27 so the rifle should not be a factor.
What would make the greatest difference in lowering SD/ES and reducing group size trying to get in the .3" consistently? Buy an annealer and annealing brass each time? Using better components like Berger bullets and alpha brass? Use a inline seating die like a Wilson with Arbor press? Install an EC tuner brake? Or something else? Obviously all the above, but it has taken me 7 years of saving and trading to purchase a rig as nice as the one that is coming. I can only make do one step at a time. Looking for the best bang for the buck. Thanks to all who helped me with $3k budget build. The MPA is cheaper and better than what I could have put together myself.

This is my first true low backpressure can, and I have to say that I’m very impressed. Backpressure is non-existent, sound is great, and it’s in another league compared to other lower backpressure cans that I have, like the Recce 5K and Anechoic.

Which if any do you have, and what do you think?

Have a like new Vudoo 360 with less than 500 rounds. This is the best shooting rifle from vudoo that I have owned. Wanted to keep this but another build took over chassis and glass. Sold .

Selling 2 MPA BA Chassis. Both are in good condition with little visible wear. Both are Rem 700 SA compatible. Action screws are included with both, no weights for either chassis. Bronze chassis will include the spigot mount.

Midnight Bronze chassis $650
Black chassis $550

Feel free to email me with any questions or if you’d like additional pics.

So... over the years I've used, removed, installed, replaced a fair few 'pre-fit' barrels - almost all Savage barrel nut style, though. Along the way, via the school of hard knocks, I found out about the joys of barrels... not always pointing where you want them to - as in having to use up most of your windage or elevation (or both) to get the gun zeroed. *Especially* with factory nuts and lugs. Switching to quality aftermarket lugs - surface ground flat and parallel - and aftermarket barrel nuts, with the mating surface machined perpendicular to the axis of the threads, made a *huge* difference. Basically eliminated it, in my experience.

Fast forward to more recently... I've got a couple barrel-nut pre-fits - one a Proof CF, and the other a Shilen, both with aftermarket nuts - and an Origin action. And they both 'point' about 5-6 mils off to the left

I didn't really notice it at first, because the first scope (Bushnell XRSii 4.5-30x) I had on that gun with the first barrel (Proof CF 6.5CM) had a wider range of adjustment, so I never really bumped into the edge of the range of travel. The second barrel (NSS/Shilen 223 Rem) actually points a little less off to the side, so I didn't notice that one either, even when I changed the scope out for a Burris XTRiii 5.5-30x. But when I swapped back to the Proof barrel, I got it zeroed... but started having all kinds of problems with the scope not following the adjustments, or randomly changing POI.

After taking everything apart - barrel off, rail off, scopes out of the rings, etc. - and not finding anything loose, I put it back together with the Burris scope and Proof barrel. Since it'd been completely disassembled, I figured I'd stick the bore sighter on it, and holy $hit I was about 3 clicks off the far left side of the windage travel. Swapped out the Burris for the Bushnell, and while it wasn't up against the edge of it's range, it was definitely way, way further over than I would like. Pulled the Proof barrel and put the Shilen back on. As mentioned earlier, it didn't point *quite* as far over, enough so that the Burris would actually work with it. Barely.

FWIW, both barrels have the nuts (red) loctite'd on, after setting the headspace with the appropriate gauges.

Unfortunately, I don't have a *shouldered* barrel handy for this action to test this out further. Might be able to borrow one from someone local.

I'm *pretty* sure the face of the receiver, the face of the nut(s), and both sides of the lug were as clean as I could get them. Not sure what else might be the culprit as far as pushing both barrels over that far. Or more specifically... I can think of a few things, but I'm really not liking the direction those thoughts are headed.

Curious what else folks here think might be the cause - or the solution.

Buying a lotto ticket for $1 every time the jackpot got too large to ignore was fun, but I never win. I think they changed the price to $2 and said the jackpots will be even bigger. Idk.

Well here come the $5 mega million tickets.

Customer wanted access to the attic. Stayed 10 minutes over to do a rough in. Will be back Monday morning to trim it out.

Why are non-translating turrets desirable?

I see the desire discussed here often, and I don’t get it.

And now that you have read it… Game on!!!

Syria is coming apart at the seams…

Guess Turkey and AQ decided that they better move now while the potato is in office and our military is too busy transitioning into bisexual teletubbies and scrubbing their DEI files to do anything about it…

Wonder what happens if the AQ folks get the chem weapons depots that Assad has amassed?

Oh well… think Assad will end up in a ditch shot by a Mets fan… like old Muammar?

And barely a word of it in the news as they focus on how liberal women are now cutting their balls off to keep Trump from turning them into Stepford wives…. I think that’s how that works…
