Anybody updates on these heads or other options? I'm looking as well

I have some Berger 130 hunting VLDs, 140 VLDs and some 143 ELD-X for bullets. I do need a set of dies a well. Raffy, I'll private message you.

You guys are awesome! I was a little hesitant to post, but am glad I did. I'm super grateful for all the responses and potential help. I'm working near Fort Worth TX but live in north eastern NM.

My 11 year old drew a youth only elk hunt so I've been putting together a light weight rifle. I chose a CF barrel chambered in 6.5 PRC assuming brass and dies would return before summer. Obviously I was mistaken. Does anyone have an extra 30 to 50 pieces? I'm even willing to buy the...

I just slid the gauges in. I did not insert directly into the bolt! I bet that's exactly what my problem is. I'll try that and report back.

Thank you all for the help, I appreciate it! I screwed the barrel all the way until it hit the action, the un-screwed until the go gauge would close and the no go would not. I do have the 224 Valkyrie bolt head from Bighorn installed. This is brand new brass. If I insert an unloaded case...

I've never set up a barrel nut before. I do have go/ no go gages. I believe the headspace is set per the gages. I built a few handloads to see what we could do. The first one shot, no problems. The second round would not go off and the bolt could not extract it from the chamber. I went...

Both are 16" and I believe both are chrome moly

LMT MWS with two 308 barrels. Round count on both is 500, probably somewhat less. Rifle was taken in on trade and came from California so it had the magazine button on it. I've only shot the guns a few times and have never taken the time to remove the button. I do have the parts to...

I'd prefer black but would consider yours. Can you send pics, details, etc?

Sold pending funds......

Excellent condition, very little use, has Harrison rear sight, tritium front, three magazines, two leather holsters and one kydex. $2100

I have a LMT MWS for sale if interested

With the 1-9" twist, are you limited to 80 grain bullets?? Have you shot it with any heavies, 85+
