    6.5 x 47 lapua brass small flash hole

    I stand corrected. I checked my lee decapping die, and found it was opening my flash holes. Glad I read this thread I probably would have never noticed it.

    Accuracy of relitavly new savage not that good

    The scope problem I had was about 8-9 years ago. When I read your post it sounded familiar. The scopes were new when I had the issues also. It may not be the problem, but I thought I would mention it.

    Accuracy of relitavly new savage not that good

    I had the same problem on two rifles in the past. Both were Nikon buckmaster scopes. One, I sent to hill country rifles. It wasn't till then that they told me it was a bad scope. If you have another scope to try out just to make sure, I would..

    Rifle Scopes seekins ring height

    I'm running the .97 on my sightron 56mm (65mm OD) OBJ. MTU contour. 2.55mm from bell to barrel. If I had went with the .92, I would only have 1.275mm from B to B. The .87 would set me on my barrel.

    Suppressors First time out with 30p-1

    I have made two range trips with my new 30p-1. On my second trip I ended up dropping my powder charge on my 7-08 from 46.5 to 46.3gr. Not because of pressure tho. With the suppressor on, it just seems to like it backed down a smidge.

    Too much deburring?

    I still use the RCBS chamfer tool. Sometimes I have to tilt the tool at a angel to knock off the burr, Not so much that the inside stem contacts the inside of the neck tho.
