Taylorbok has it right. The difference cost and availability for competitors outside the USA... the Forster and gauge pin might be more available Here is a example of a collet held pin... F class john is using a Hornady bullet puller I tried one but occasionally the pin would slide the solution...

I was interested in the Porter but had the same availability concerns. I grabbed the Forster universal bullet puller with a caliber specific collet and bot a series of pin gauges. the pin fit and i am using it to test different pin sizes

Coming late to the party but You may wish to check out Spearhead Machine they have a brake designed for ELR that fits your bill. I am waiting to get my grubby little hands on it for my 300wsm; currently run a MBM superbeast. Spearhead's is larger dia and incorporated a top port for more brake...

Not sure what amount of evidence you would be satisfy with given your indicating you have seen better results once you eliminated the mandrel. If i had to guess your neck bushing has a higher interference fit than the mandrel you used. The additional neck tension had positive results. You...

IF you are looking to get into neck mandrels, i would suggest pin gauges; sourced from any online tool company McMaster-Carr or SunCoast and a collet bullet puller, you can buy a set of pin gauges for $40. You will need to grind the edge off of one end of the pin. Conduct your testing to find...

It looks like it was designed for a guy prone hugging the ground, trying to have as little movement as possible not to give is location away.

Tuner for 1.25 yes... Same practice as non tuner barrels, (with the tuner attached) test lots until you find one that show best results. A tuner will give you the ability to maximize your ammo's grouping ability. It also give you an option to improve the ammo due to changing environmental...

Absolutely Front rest, take more of the human component out of load development both vertical and horizontal. Vertical can be seen in most instances with all variations of shooting, bipod, prone, bipod off a bench. Horizontal is harder to identify shooting, of a bipod, prone, bipod off a...

How to manage Mirage; the quick and dirty...Mirage is wind you can see, it is also the most responsive. It reacts to wind (speed and direction) quicker then everything else wind flags, leaves, grass, rain. Reading the wind chart (pg 7) Here is a link how mirage and flags react to different wind...

Impressive given the ES Couple follow up questions. Did you run your ammo over your chrony each session Did your get similar results for your SK rifle match and Eley contact Follow up. looking at your math for ELEY force. can you help me understand the vertical group 4.48" shouldn't it read...

The shooting community has started to recognize at ELR distances extreme spread is the factor that dictates hits. Using JBM, I didn't see ELEY force substituted ELEY target _____________Range Drop in Drop MOA 1040 fps_____ 300_____ 176.8_____56.3 1070 fps_____ 300_____ 170.0_____54.1...

The two differ in one area Vudoo barrels use an extractor cut RimX barrel centerfire barrel chamber. The standard 22lr has always used an extractor cut. This feature separates most smiths and requires a specialized 22lr smith. RimX has changed this in their bolt design which does not...

Wish i had better news and i don't have a reasonable answer for the delays; maybe Covid BUT more transparency would go along way. I am a lefty, given the above I will wait until mid 2021 and check back before dropping pre-order dollars. Trevor

I also reached out to the Ultimatum here is their response i am hoping Frank get one of the first runs so he can do a review. Cheers Hi Trevor, Deuce is in production as we speak, we expect to have them complete and start shipping by the end of December/ early January at the latest! Left...
