Better to use a Band Saw, but yeah.

I shoot 153 ATips with my 8 twist 28” at 2680fps and does great.

Reality is that I do not expect a 55 gr to group like a 69-77gr. If I am shooting 55s it is in blaster mode and if I can hit a 3”-4” plate out to 100yrd then it is plenty accurate. It I want accuracy I shoot longer bullets. That us why I tend to use 7 twist although I do have two 8 twist barrels that do fine up to 77, but are very happy with 69TMKs.

Find me a Hide post where the poster recommending a case admits the case has any recoil.

Just as a data point of one, I have a LRH mini chassis that just won’t get the same level of precision as other LRH’s I own. Tried multiple barreled actions in the suspect stock. Tried multiple action screw torque values from 50 in-lbs front/45 back, to 90 and 90. Same hand loads. Take a barreled action from that stock and drop it into one of my other LRH’s and holes on target don’t lie. I did this with five barreled actions (2 defiance and 2 impacts, one Mac bros element), with barrels from Bartlein, Carbon 6 and Mullerworks chambered by very well known gunsmiths with very strong reputations nationally and definitely in competition shooting. It is repeatable and noticeable.

I have no real idea what the issue is with that stock. I suspect there is a straightness issue in the mini chassis layup, causing some small stress on the actions. The group sizes consistently reflected tighter groups in a different LRH, TCS, TS Customs KS1 and Foundation Gideon.

I think a careful bedding job would solve the problem, I just haven’t done it yet. Part of the attraction to the mini chassis is not being tied to one action, but I probably need to just bite the bullet and bed it.

I know low 2600s are typical with 153s and h4350. But what's everyone getting with r16? Does it help get more speed or not?

I also have an 8 twist so maybe I shouldn't even consider the 150 class bullets.

Good shoot, but who was the fucking idiot who kept walking into the line of fire? Spouse of the hostage maybe?

Regardless, good shoot but there’s a lot of things to take away from that re: how fucking stupid the average citizen is when it comes to firearms safety, or even basic cause and effect (AKA Common Sense).

it is refreshing to see the cops shoot somebody that needs it. sucks because there are plenty that need it and many examples of just the opposite.
and yea,the libs will whine that any fatal and justified shoot should have been in the arm or leg. shown is the skill level that should be mandatory from anyone authorized to use lethal force. a very impressive shot under high stress situation.

Very happy with my unit, especially for what I paid for it on EV. Zeroed once, four separate hunting trips of daily off and on, and still holding zero. Only complaint is buttons are hard to differentiate with gloves on. Image in videos could be much better but just need good enough to kill stuff. 6.5CM AR10 shooting factory Hornady 100 ELD VT. Zeiss LRP S3 4-25 recorded with a trigger cam.

New 26" Preferred Barrel (1/8 twist) on Ruger American Action
Looking to run 140/144/153 Bergers with H4350
I have some 140s in hand for barrel break in.
Previously I was running 143 ELDxs fairly slow so I don't need a smoking hot load (at least for now). Starline and Lapua brass.
How do the 153s fit in the case and mag? is 1/8 twist good for 153s at 600 - 1000yds?
Thanks and have a great week. Will report back once I have decent load/target.

Dang!
I have some more brass to fire form to this new barrel but I am now out of H4350. I may use up another powder. what sayest the most accomplished of basement dwellers?
I have some reloader 16(opened), reloader 17, Winchester Sta-ball 6.5
I will most likely use R16 up first.
