I have some different bullets in my cabinet 185vld, 180 sst and a couple of match sierra bullets. I just saw...

    Gunsmithing Hells canyon bedding issue

    Mine is the speed in 300 win mag. I have shot magnums for years. I have a custom 300 that is really heavy and don't like lugging it around for days on end so I bought this one. I will have to look at the front of the stock I do not believe it is bedded.

    Gunsmithing Hells canyon bedding issue

    Hi, I bought this rifle about a year ago and broke it down for some spring cleaning. I noticed that the factory bedding of the stock seems to be insufficient/flawed. Should I grind this down and re-bed the stock with pillars? I bought this as it was light weight and I seemed to have okay groups...

    So I tried the loads at 42 grains and my rifle seems to really like them. I can't wait to put a chassis on but for now this will do what I want

    .308 reloads

    I have a question. I just started reloading on my own and started with my .308 remington 700 sps tac. 16.5bbl. I used the hornady comparator and checked for my C.O.A.L to the lands. My issue is i cant get the load to be .002 off the lands without making it a single shot rifle. since i want these...

    load data for 308 winchester berger vld 185 gr

    well I did some research on the Hodgden site and cross compared across a variety of 180 to 190 grain bullets and I feel safe at 42 grains of winchester 748 powder.

    load data for 308 winchester berger vld 185 gr

    to add I have successfully used the 748 powder up to 44.5 grains with the 208 A-max. I am unsure about chronograph and the casings seem to be okay still. I was curious if my starting point of 42 grains of powder would be okay to start with the vld's? I am using cci 200's and seating the bullet...

    load data for 308 winchester berger vld 185 gr

    I have been searching for some reloading data on the berger 185 vld to shoot out of my 308 win. I am currently running a remmington 700 sps tactical 16.5 barrell. I tried the Hornady A-max and they seemd to fly okay with the gun but i also would like to try out some of the bergers that i got...
