    AI AWSM vs. Gap built AICS w/Surgeon action

    Re: AI AWSM vs. Gap built AICS w/Surgeon action Well, I went the GAP route with the M2008 action. Reason was is I couldn't justify the huge price tag for the AIAW. But one of the bigger reasons was I could get the barrel twist I wanted for the shooting I was going to do. Here is a link to...

    338 Lapua Powder

    Re: 338 Lapua Powder I have tried, RL25, RL22, Retumbo, H1000 and H4831SC. Although RL25 was promising with the 300SMK's, it wasn't consistent. I worked up a load using H1000 and my ES came way down and my groups got better and consistency was great. I found the same thing when using...

    What range to build .338LM load data at?

    Re: What range to build .338LM load data at? I'm going to go against the grain and say that you can work up a load at 100 yards...IF that is all you have. I have worked up my loads at 100yds because that was the range I had readily available. I did confirm at 1000 and beyond though...

    338 Lapua and Rel-25 loads

    Re: 338 Lapua and Rel-25 loads Thought I would chime in. I tried RL25, Retumbo and eventually H1000 in the GAP built .338 using 300SMK's. I found that the RL25 did pretty good, but it also seemed to be inconsistent. In other words, a few shots would seem good then the next few would be...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon AccuPoint 5-20x50

    Re: Trijicon AccuPoint 5-20x50 The 5-20 Accupoint will get you to 700-800 with a 0 MOA base (depends on gun). I know first hand that the scope will get out to 1000yds with a 20 MOA base. Again, this wil depend on the gun. My friend has one mounted on his Remington 5R and he has a 20MOA...

    laser range finder research

    Re: laser range finder research Sharpshooter: Just a word of caution. No rangfinder will range in all conditions. I only mention this because in your opening remarks, you said 'all conditions'. But when it comes to rain, snow, sleet, fog, etc. a range finder will only go so far regardless...

    .338 Lapua and H4831SC

    Re: .338 Lapua and H4831SC Longshot - Barrel length is 28" and OAL is what fits in my AI mags. I use a Sinclair comparator to measure the length of my rounds. If I remember correctly, I'm running the 250 Scenar's about .015" off the lands. ERA - I've been shooting the 300SMK most of the...
