45 Raptor bolt gun long throated.

Hello all. Thought some of you might get a kick out of this. I got a custom 45 Raptor from a member here several months ago. RWS built with a Defiance action, Kreiger 16in Palma, Magpul Hunter stock, very nice rifle. I don't hunt, just found it interesting and thought I would fool with it a bit. With the included 250gr XTP loads it was very accurate and a lot of fun. But I was curious about running very heavy subs through my Hybrid 46 can with it. As these rifles run a .451 bore, you are limited for selection. I shoot a lot of BPCR style 45-70 so I have lots of projectiles in .458. I used Lee .454 and .451 sizers to size down to the correct dia. Lead bullets are 500gr ACME, 500gr Montana gas checked spire points they sized to .452 for me and 635gr Creedmoor bullets. I also have a large number of 500gr Hornady DGX jacketed bullets. We'll lubed the DGXs sized with surprisingly little effort and came out perfect.
Loading these where they would chamber of course seats the bullets very far into the case, while this did work you just didn't have much capacity and it was easy to go supersonic. So I got a .452 throater, made a action bushing and a drive mandrel and set the rifle up in the lathe. I loaded my rounds to my preference, mostly max mag length except for the 500gr DGX which has a cannelure, I seated to it. I lengthened the throat slowly, checking to see if all rounds would chamber as I went. At right about plus .550 they all seated smoothly. I'm still in preliminaries getting a finished load, but have good luck so far. I tried a suggested 20gr of H110, which worked well on the 500gr DGX but had low case fill with the 500gr spire point seated out. Loaded up several of each over 10gr of Trailboss with hilarious results. I run 15gr under 500gr bullets in my 45-70 and gets right at 1000fps. With 10gr in the smaller case I think we are close, need time to chrono them. Definitely subsonic, very quiet and seem accurate in my very informal and quick testing. This should be fun to keep them subs or push them to maybe 12-1400fps and see how they do at long range. I've got a 5-25 Arken in a Warne gantry ring set, so elevation isn't a problem lol. In the attached photos, left to right: 250gr XTP, 500gr DGX, 500gr spire point, 635gr Creedmoor. Anyway, thought yall might find this interesting.

Getting started in rimfire PRS - What rife?

Hi All,

I am really getting the 22 rimfire bug and am falling into the black hole fast. I have a 10/22 style KIDD supergrade that I have dusted off out of the safe that I have really started to shoot alot and now I am thinking I want to go all out and getting a super nice bolt action. But now comes my question where should I start rife wise? I don't plan on winning any national matches I am just average Joe that really enjoys shooting rimfire and has an appreciation of fine craftsmanship in guns. I would like to dabble in some local NRL22/PRS matches but just for fun. I have been looking for a little while now at some of the used CZ's and Tikka's that come and go on this site as well as others but I also feel like if I go down this road why spend the money on that when later I might want a Vudoo or Rimx. So I guess my real question is for those that have gone down the rimfire rabbit hole is it better to just buy once and cry once and just go all out and get Vudoo/Rimx or would you say start slow and work your way up?

For some background I am coming from years of shooting competitively in the clay target world both NSSA, NSCA, and some ISSF skeet. So a DI precision barreled Vudoo with some super nice glass is not jaw dropping to me (when you compare that to what some of my clay target guns cost) but at the same time if something like a second hand $1500-$2k 455 with a Lilja barrel will get the job done then I would much rather go that route.

Shooters Global Shot Timers: SG 2.0 and SG GO

Review, first impressions, thoughts.



IMG_0149-1080x1440.jpg




Black Friday is here, and while everyone’s hunting for deals, I wanted to share my experience with a couple of tools that I got to play with and share our honest thoughts about: the Shooters Global SG 2.0 and SG GO shot timers.



I had the chance to test both timers with a variety of firearms, and honestly? I came away impressed. With the time I had, I didn’t find any major downsides—just features that made my testing sessions smoother and more effective. Clear user friendly interface and data for training came easy, but the real bonus these shot timers provide vs competitors is the app that accompanies the timer and features within it. Of course, different people will have different needs, but for anyone serious about improving their craft, these timers offer efficiency...
