    Finally in my hands & setup

    The sako muzzle brake installation instructions call for 10nm or 85in lbs of torque. Bullshit! Didn't even get to 35in lbs without a wonderful little 'tink sound' = a couple of hours farting around to remove a broken bolt & find a replacement, which isn't too easy in a country town.... SO BE...

    Finally in my hands & setup

    Ah, but you get all the great shit in the states. We can't get a 338, 50 bmg, suppressor, semiautomatic anything (.22,shotgun,pump action shotgun, ar-15, huntingrifle) without being a primary producer or professional hunter, even anything bigger than a 9mm pistol with a 10 round magazine :(

    Finally in my hands & setup

    It was a wait, but finally have my a tikka T3 super varmint in 300 win mag. Took Willys46, MrSwede, Sierracharlie338 and Ledzep's advice, and running the Nightforce 5.5-22x56 NXS glass. Sighted it in last week, lost 30moa, with a 100 yard zero. Hitting a 6' gong @ 550yards. Just fitted a...

    How good is a Dillon 550 for accuracy drive reloading?

    I load in bulk with my Dillon 550 for 9mm, 357 mag, 45acp, 44mag. Loaded some 30-06 for my rifle, and through the chronograph 10 rounds had a 28fps extreme spread. So will be loading for my new 300 win mag in the Dillon. +1 for accuracy on the Dillon ;)

    Opinion & criticisms on long rang rifle setup.

    Thanks for all the replies ;) Currently have a sauer in .30-06, & a remington 700 in .308. Looking for the extra oomph of the win mag. Can't get a permit to acquire for a .338 LM in our nanny country as they are a unpolitically correct 'snipers' round... My shooting buddy has a remington...

    Opinion & criticisms on long rang rifle setup.

    Cheers for the feedback. Have a sauer in .30-06 & also a remington 700 in 308... So looking for the extra oomph. 338's are very hard to get here. My shooting buddy is running his remington 700 sps tactical with the Nightforce NXS 8-32 x 56 Zerostop moar. I think I'll take your advice on the...
