I want to bring forth a topic I don't recall seeing alot of discussion about. I've recently got into 3D printing, with the emphasis on reloading. We as reloaders are typically making due with what can find and modify off the shelf. 3DP brings an...

Great Write-up on accurizing the Dillon 550 http://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/updated-dillon-550-reloading-whitepaper.3982389/

The 6.5 guys have a great article on how they load precision ammo on a 550, their website is down at the moment.

I have this on my MPA BA 6.5CM, it is a tack driver, the glass is great, no complaints, eye relief is good, listsd for 1500, a few years back I was able to negotiate them down to $1250 using the chat on optics planet. No need to spend $2500 - 4k on a scope. They have 3 different reticles now...

That's what I am shooting, same rifle (y)

I have the 6.5CM MPA BA, amazing rifle, consistent 5 shot 1/4 MOA, the rifle was so accurate at 100 yards, I had to take load development to 200 yards to really see the differences. I don't have alot of pics, this is 200yds, I pulled my 4th of 5 shots, eyed drift, but this is repeatable...

I have added the barrel info to my previous posts 6.5CM 22" Rifle Length Premium Series

Here is my replacement barrel with properly cut barrel lugs, this is was a random starting load for barrel break in, I wasn't taking time to get great shot placement in between barrel cleaning. 6.5CM 22" Rifle Length Premium Series 18rd at 100 yards, the flyer was my 1st shot, I then adjusted...

Well I just bought one, 6.5CM 22" Rifle Length Premium Series, shot like crap, was not MOA. I started inspecting it after I finished the 2nd ladder test, at 82 Rnds, found the barrel lugs weren't cut correctly, it tooks chunks out of my new bolt. Got the bolt replaced by Toolcraft, they were...

Threaded barrel, external magazine fed, Pic Rail, it is just ready for a new stock or chasis. You are not waisting any money by ditching the plastic stock. The Tac1 is the only other option to offer these features, but you pay twice the price and it comes with its own chasis.

DLC Coated and Fluted

I have the 6.5BA, it is a tack driver, my own loads 140 ELD M, consistent 5 shot 0.25 MOA at 100, the only rifle that I could not finsh a load work-up at 100 yards, shot too good, had to move to 200yd to see a difference. I have had light strikes, was common with the early Axiom, they replaced...
