    New to reloading need a starting point for .223

    Re: New to reloading need a starting point for .223 Thanks everyone for the suggestions. When I said long range I guess I should have said something more like " shoot as far as I can accurately". I guess everything is relative.

    New to reloading need a starting point for .223

    Re: New to reloading need a starting point for .223 I don't have a manual yet. I'm getting the Hornady single stage kit as a gift for Christmas and the manual comes with that. I want to reload for long range / precision.

    New to reloading need a starting point for .223

    I'm just starting to reload and I was wondering if anyone had a good baseline for .223, 26" barrel, 1:12 twist. From using factory ammo I know it likes 55 grain bullets so I was going to use to experiment starting with them. I'm more curious with different types of powder and primers to use.

    PROJECT: SBR BOLT ACTION

    Re: NEW PROJECT - Need Some Guidance - SBR Bolt Action You could just buy one 26" barrel blank cut it down to 10". If that doesn't work then use your original scrap and have a 16" barrel which we know does work.

    Shooting at an angle

    Re: Shooting at an angle Ok so the distance that you're shooting at is essentially the base of the right triangle. Because the is basically the distance in which gravity is affecting the bullet got it.

    Shooting at an angle

    Re: Shooting at an angle The difference in elevation is large enough that it needs to be taken accounted for.

    Shooting at an angle

    So I read a few other posts about this subject but I'm still a little confused. When you are shooting down hill at a target how do you account for the angle in the trajectory? Do you adjust your scope so that you are basically shooting the straight line distance?

    First precision rifle!

    Re: First precision rifle! I'm on the one year plan. I plan on having my rifle completely set up by next summer and then use next summer to play around with reloading. Also I'll be done with school by then so hopefully I'll have a lot more time.
