30-06 COAL and CBTO with 178 ELDX

Hey all,

Loading for a factory REM 700

Using Hornady modified case and OAL tool. Using the tool to find my jam point and I am getting a number of 2.802. This is holding the case firm into the chamber via the rod the case mounts on and sliding the bullet until contact, tighten set screw and remove case. Bullet sticks in barrel but a small tap on the side of the stock below action frees bullet.

Using this 2.802 measurement I have my seating die set for a .020 jump and I have my finished cases sit a CBTO of 2.782

This is giving me a OAL of completed rounds that are 3.444. This is nearly .105 longer than the max OAL according to the books. Has anyone ever had something this extreme?? I have shot rounds at this measurement and have chambered and extracted them without sticking a bullet.

This got me thinking as it seems extremely long. The other day with the bolt stripped for the gun and checking the fit of some brass I tried the 30-06 modified case for shits and gigs. The bolt wouldn’t close on the modified case without some good effort. I then compared the modified case to a factory Barnes load and to my sized cases.

The distance form the base to in which the shoulder starts at the top of the body on the modified case seems quite a bit further forward (longer) than on either the factory loaded Barnes or my sized brass. Both the Barnes and the modified case measured 2.044 case base to datum using the Hornady comparator. The Barnes case would however allow my bolt to function relatively free while stripped.

If the shoulder junction on the modified case is keeping it from going as far into my chamber wouldn’t this give me a longer CBTO as the bullet then has more distance to be moved until jam point while using the OAL tool. I was thinking I had a .020 jump but now I’m wondering if I am a lot closer to or even potentially jamming.

Attached are a couple photos. One is a dummy round, loaded Barnes factory load and the modified case. Others are datum measurement of the modified case and Barnes load, OAL and CBTO on the dummy round.

Thanks Alan

Modacam B14R barrel or Vudoo/RimX?

First start off by saying I have a B14R factory rifle in a MPA comp chassis

It has shot decent. Not super but good enough

I shot it a bunch last year and somewhere along the way left my suppressor on and based on my cleaning and borescope exam I have pitting in my barrel

Not a huge deal but I'm really hoping to stretch its legs this year in long range rimfire and torn on what I should do

I know guys here have owned many rimfires.

Would an upgraded B14R with the bolt smoothed out and custom modacam barrel be worth it. Or should a guy invest in a Vudoo or Rimx instead

I’m looking for accuracy. I don’t compete but if I did it be in a open class much like fclass as that’s what our local club does

Looking for opinions on which way to venture

Before someone says shoot it and see what it does. I plan to shoot it. I’m looking for the next step regardless.

Rifle Scopes Looking for a 34mm 30moa scope mount, does it exist?

I've been shooting my Q The Fix 6.5cr at 1 mile and 1900 yards recently. The only scope base available from Q is 0moa so I'm using a 15 moa mount for my 34mm scope. With only 59moa up on my scope, I've got to hold between 12-16 moa in the reticle which works and I can get hits 30%-50% of the time. I'd love to find a 34mm scope mount with 30moa cant to reduce my holdover. I cannot find much besides a Spuhr that is $400+. Am I missing something?

Chicoms still going strong


Well well well comrades. MAGA and DOGE is really the cultural revolution.

THis is why history and that learnin is so important! Destroying Government is the same as Forced Nationalization of all Industry!

I know I taunt everyone for not reading and being in the echo chamber around here, but as a full Dunning Krueger expert this is in fact the EXACT OPPOSITE of what almost all former chicom/N Korea people say. In fact it was all this DEI shit that was straight up cultural revolution/Red Guard. and that little performance the other night but the Democrats and their bowing to BLM/DEI/Trannies and forcing all of us to kowtow to their beliefs that every dissident I've read has said reminds them of Mao's Cultural Revolution.

I even put a post about it in the secret squirrel section a few years ago. Man I really hate these people lately.

Sorry I just really hate communists (I'm old)
Not sorry.

Taipai is the capital of One China.

RRS BRACS for Remington RACS Fit Issue

This might be a niche topic, but any Remington RACS chassis owners that have a RRS BRACS ARCA plate? I placed a custom order to have a run of the BRACS plates made, and they do not fit properly on my short action RACS with a full length fore end tube, nor with a spare XM2010 fore end I also have (both fore ends are the same).

It looks like the curve of the mounting screw points on the RRS BRACS is sharper than the curve on the full length fore end tube. Sliding the BRACS all the way back pushes it down a bit, causing the mounting screw holes to go out of alignment. So I can only push the BRACS so far back before the screws start binding due to the misalignment. Please see the below pics for what is happening.
