I am in Canada. There are 2 guys at my club that have hunting rifles made by Fierce and I've seen them shoot them. Both of those shot very well at 300M. I'm talking 1/3 MOA or so 3 shot groups.

The question still remains. Did you remove the ejector prior to headspacing?

What do you mean by Go Gauge cycles perfectly? You did remove the ejector when setting headspace?

My down range performance was better but it was always a question of availability. Here in Canada they are cheaper than the ELD-M.

My only experience with LC 7.62 brass is the 1,000 pieces of LC 06 I bought in 2012. I specifically bought it because the spent primers were still crimped in and I had to sewage the primer pockets. At the time I paid $0.12 a piece or $120/1,000. I bought it to use in my M1A national match. Works...

Did you do any type of primer pocket work such as uniforming? That ring looks like a tool mark. As far as pressure signs the things I look for, and this is in no way a scientific approach, Heavy bolt lift. If I feel it I mark the case with an X on the base with a sharpie. This way I will pay...

One thing to note is that CZ-USA doesn't import every model. In Canada the CZ 457 Varmint AT-ONE comes in 3 lengths 16", 20", and 24" It comes with the MATCH chamber and the barrel threading is 1/2"-20 instead of the typical 1/2"-28. The CZ Varmint MTR in Canada is also available in 16", 20" and...

That's not the Tangent throw lever on there is it? Which one is that? Can you post a closer pic please?

I'm big on Hornady products but for a powder dispenser the lowest I'd go is the RCBS. I have a Chargemaster 1500 combo that I was using till I switched to the AutoTrickler V4. I know that the lineup has changed since then so maybe some reasearch is in order.

Springfield M1A National Match. Exactly my load with the exception of the soft Federal primer, I use CCI#34 7.62 NATO spec primers.

No CBTO but pretty comprehensive. You can find Sierra load data online for most popular cartridges they sell bullets for. https://sierrabullets.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/6-5-creedmoor-load-data-112817.pdf

This summer I went to a 2 day clinic/competition and directly from the competition I went on vacation to Nashville. I hand loaded 200 rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor for the competition and had 80 remaining. When I was in Nashville I heard about Dead Zero Shooting Park and their 1000y all electronic...

It is understandable when it is your trade. I was obviously unaware to that fact.

Where do you see 2” groups at 200 other than the factory Lapua ammo? 4/7 groups are sub 1/2 moa. 6/7 are sub moa. This is load development don’t forget.

There is a cost to a lathe.
