I have a criterion in 30-06 and it is a great shooter. Jim Briggs is a great guy to deal with. He answered any and all my questions I had for him

It's still cold here so I am not getting pressure signs yet but that could change once it warms up above 40 degrees

Thanks guys I guess I am right on par then with my load

Yeah I looked at it. I just thought it was a little fast. The 208 shoots great in my gun. I just need to get some more time to work with it

I thought it was fast because the books I have say I should be around 2400. I do like the extra speed.

I was wondering what kind of speeds you guys are getting with the 208. The load I am using is 55 gr. of H4831sc with CCI 250 magnum primers in pmc brass. I shot it across the chrono this weekend and got an average of 2711 fps. This is from a Savage 110 with a Criterion 10 twist barrel chambered...

When you order your barrel they should ask you if it is a small or large shank. I believe every caliber up to 300 wm is small shank. If you are changing calibers you will need to change your bolt face also

You should have the small shank barrel and can't change to the large shank. You can reuse the factory barrel nut on your new barrel but I suggest get a new one. You will also wanna get a new recoil lug. That way your new barrel will sit flat against your action. I just got done building a savage...

Thank you I will be ordering one soon

Could I get a link to the website to order one. I really like the looks of that brake and I bet my savage would look great with it.

I forgot to say it was IMR 4350. I could be wrong with the charge weight it is late and I am at work so I can't check to be sure. I am looking to get good accuracy to atleast 1000 yards maybe further if I can find a place with enough room to stretch out. I am shooting a Savage 110 with a 1:10...

I am looking for a good loads for my rifle that I recently put together. I am currently shooting the 168 gr. Amax with 55.6 gr. of 4350 and they shoot pretty decent. I was wondering what you guys are using for that bullet. I plan on stepping up to the 208 amax when my 168 are gone. What would be...

Re: Mail Call Mondays I just recently came onto your videos and wanna thank you for making them. I have watched almost all of them now and can't wait for the next ones. They have been very helpful to me with trying to learn about all of this stuff.
