    300wm VS 338lm accuracy at ELR

    I would love to see the break down on 1.25$ per shot on the 338 ! That dosent seem even remotely possible Kyle

    Optimal Charge Weight load development - Voodoo?

    Its no important where each shot lands. Only the groups center if you will. As long as you grab the right charged bullet and shot the right group each time. Individual shots mean nothing Kyle

    Optimal Charge Weight load development - Voodoo?

    It places the error factor from barrel heat/harmonics over all groups fired instead of each graduated group being fired from a hotter and hotter barrel.. Eg - waiting any realistic amount of time between shots and on shot 21 your barrel will be hotter than on shot 4. It also keeps any other...

    Adjusting charge weight for temperature

    So to add to this.. I am shooting in really cold weather right now. about 10-15 F. And am worried that if I am close to max pressure , what will happen when the temp rises into 50-70F degree days ? Will I be over pressure. I could currently add .5 grains to my load and still be OK.. My...

    Case lube

    Can somebody enlighten me as to why anyone would use imperial wax over any spray application, other than cost. I see so many hyping the wax , even have some myself , but the spray with a bag is sooooo much faster Kyle

    Tight closing bolt

    I recently shot some 1x fired Lapua brass , FL resized by me and my forster die. Chambering some of these rounds , I noticed the bolt was a little snug to close. The bullet has alot of jump so its not jamming. Should I make a small die adjustment ? Thanks Kyle

    Re: Help reading OCW After thinking about this a little with regards to the 42.8 grain load, should it really matter what the group looks like at 100 Yards ? I think not, we are trying to find a common group impact point, not a certain group size , or pattern, ect. Wouldn't a horizontal...
