SBR Bolt Action - 450 Bushmaster or .308?

My rifle is not a custom rifle. It is a Ruger Gunsite Scout with a 1/16 twist and 16" barrel. It shoots pretty well with loads using the 250 FTX. It did not shoot as well with the XTP Mag and 395 SubX. The 250 FTX seems to both feed well and shoot the best of the bullets I have tried. It would meet your accuracy standards but just barely.

I would be satisfied with the velocity and accuracy for deer size game with the 250 FTX and my combo for <200 yards.

My suggestion regarding 308 instead of a 450 BM is that I think the terminal effects, ballistics, and trajectory are better shooting something like a 308 with a 125 Accubond than the typical 450 BM load.

Hi guys, it’s been a while but I have more ready to ship.
I’m shipping them priority now, so it’ll get there faster. Still the same prices…
$38 for one
$60 for two
$80 for three. Buy a friend one!



They have T shaped clamp bolts along with the round knobs now. I also include spacers that only need to be used with extremely wide chassis, like the matrix pro.

So, you're basically setting the Lee Factory Crimp die 15% past the die touching the shell holder??
Yes there about, actually when it engages the neck. I believe the shoulder is what it contacts and then starts to contract.

I'd say 15-20% of total capacity for everything I load any caliber bolt guns included.

But I agree it may well be not enough for an ar 10.

223, 300 blk, 6.5g, 308 bolt. And now 6mm arc that I tried the push test and was not strong enough to move it.
