    Brass shoulder rings after firing (Sav LRP 260)

    I could use some input on these brass marks. Just picked up a model 12 LRP in 260 rem and i think the chamber might be rough. Shot about 80 rounds through it and all the brass came out with vertical rings around the entire circumference of the shoulder. I couldn't capture a picture of the...

    Remington bull barrel throwing 4th and 5th shots

    How far do you consider a "throw"? Could help diagnose the issue.

    Cleaning off 'One Shot'

    Dumb them back into your tumbler with UNTREATED, fine grit, corn cob tumbling media for 10 minutes. Once i started doing this i ditched wipe downs forever.

    Need suggestion for mounting a short picatinny rail on a B&C Medalist Tatical stock forend

    Got this one from GG&G and attached it to my B&C tactical medalist. Drilled two holes for the screws and uses them as placeholders, but ultimately it's JB welded on. Make sure you sand down to the actual stock and not just screw/glue to the paint. Ignore the rubber band. Obviously it was...

    Bipod Question

    Flipping backward wouldn't allow for any kind of real forward load at all. Any forward pressure will collapse the legs and soon as you load, especially on a 15lb + bolt gun. Consistency is key and most achievable when bipod is attached normally and loaded forward. my .02 at least

    Evaluate my. 260 results

    iSnipe, which turned out to be the issue. All inputs were correct; however, when entering the 140 Grain Custom Comp round it auto-populated the G7 ballistic coefficient with the word "Litz" No value was present so i just assumed it was correct. It turns out that the auto-populated value was...

    Lee Perfect Powder Measure is VERY consistent for 8208XBR

    I've never tried the half/half trick, but i throw 8208 into .223 with the LPPM with less than 1/10th grain variation. Very pleased with it.

    Trouble with Remington 700

    My SPS did the same thing around the 800 round mark. I went through all the same steps you're going through trying to get the accuracy back without realizing the obvious. I had been cleaning carbon out consistently, but had never....ever removed the copper. I bought a good copper solvent and...

    Rifle fires while closing bolt

    Recently installed a Timney 510 in my Rem 700. I installed it right out of the box without making any adjustments to the pull weight or sear engagement. Occasionally the gun will "fire" when closing the bolt. It tends to happen when lowering the bolt to its locked position and happens on an...

    Varget: Actual temp sensitivity?

    THanks for all the input. I guess i'll have to trouble shoot what else could be the issue. My DA was updated for the conditions at hand.

    Varget: Actual temp sensitivity?

    Does anyone know approximately how much muzzle velocity i can expect to gain/lose shooting varget across a wide temperature spectrum? Say 90 degrees to 10 degrees? I chronoed my load in 90 degree temps this summer. I validated the trajectory out to 800 yards at a muzzle velocity of 2615...

    Federal Premium 1x times fired cases

    I'm on 5 firings and primer pockets still going strong. Of course, this is with a moderate charge weight (44.5 varget). I got lucky on my lot of brass from what i understand. My buddy only got 2 firings out of his before they wouldn't hold a primer any more.

    New press turned .5MOA gun into 2MOA gun?

    Update: I appreciate all of the replays here. Lots of good stuff to consider. The visuals made a lot of sense so thanks for that bigedp51. I've burned though about 50 rounds at various ranges (mostly 100yards) with the same huge groups. My plan is to switch back to my rockchucker on my next...

    New press turned .5MOA gun into 2MOA gun?

    Hit the range with a new set of 100 reloads to find i couldn't get groups better than about 2" at 100 yards. My rifle is a 0.5" shooter any day of the week so i was pretty surprised. Absolutely nothing about the load/rifle/optic has changed. The only change i made was the press i loaded on...
