im confused....i just read the "handloading for long range 3, finding start OAL" and it says to ALWAYS start jammed into the rifling and work out...but many say start with a jump...can someone explain which is better and why??

thanks, ill keep practicing till i get consistent measurements..

Thanks a lot guys for all the advice.....another question...i purchased myself the Hornady OAL gauge and just took some measurements.....note this is a .264 win mag if it matters....i took 3 readings just touching the lands...i got 3.810, 3.807, 3.810 so i averaged to 3.809........i messed...

So im starting from scratch and forgetting a lot of bad reloading habits i was taught before. My question now is, do i figure out what charge weight my gun likes first then decide my OAL or is this something you have to figure out togethor? Just seems like a lot of wasted ammo will be used...

I just had a JEC Customs brake installed on my Remington Sendero .264 win mag and it was at least a 60% reduction. Highly Recommend

Looking for some good information on how to properly do a work up load to find what my rifle likes, finally got some 6.5 .264 sierra matchkings on the way and dont want to waste my time doing something wrong, only took 5 months to get a box of 100!

Can't find them anywhere either... there has to be somewhere people are getting their 6.5 bullets. Unless their getting them from factory Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

He still has the original stock and trigger, thinking of using the timney for my sendero, putting old stock back on and saving the precising stock Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

Never had factory ammo shot through it, he does all his own reloading Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

I know these Scopes are not the usual Scopes we see on here but I have to ask, I was looking to buy a Nikon prostaff 4×12×40 but then I was offered a used leupold vx-1 4×12×40 for $150. Shoot me some opinions please. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

It was room temp, I did it again and waited 11 hours before cleaning out holes, turned out perfect! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
