    Favorite Rifle?

    Re: Favorite Rifle? Yep, still working with the bottom metal, I think I can get it to feed 4. If not, still worth it . Makes nice little knots that way.

    Favorite Rifle?

    Re: Favorite Rifle? For me its a LTR in .308 with extended box mag. Loading to 3" makes it a whole new beast. Thinking a .280AI is is my near future.

    Re: Stevens 200 terrible groups Tighten the piss outta the base and rings to eliminate that possibility, then try some decent ammo before you dump the glass. dntfxr

    Winchester brass + Lee Classic Loader = JUNK

    Re: Winchester brass + Lee Classic Loader = JUNK I'll make a suggestion. It won't cost an arm and a leg either. Get a decent press if you don't already have one, a used RCBS or Lee Classic Cast (new 80$), and a set of Lee collet dies. Keep your Win brass and be happy. My .02 dntfxr

    Range Report 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... Yeah,I think the 46g node will allow for more forgiveness and cover a broader range of powder charges, like maybe 45.7- 46.6, whereas the 48g is the limit and 47.5 didn't shoot nearly as good. The flyer very well may have been on me, especially...

    Range Report 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... 48g makes a pretty full case but at 2.968oal in once fired brass from the generous factory chamber its not as compressed as you'd think. I'm gonna try Win brass to see if it will ease pressure just a little more and still shoot. The 47 and 47.5...

    Range Report 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... BTW, I'm not recommending these charge weights by any means, only posting MY experience in MY rifle. These are WAY over published max loads, so don't try this at home, etc, etc... dntfxr

    Range Report 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands...

    I made it to the range today and found some loads that my rifle likes. This is from a factory .308 LTR with an extended box magazine that allows for the longer oal rounds to feed. I tested from 45g - 48g in half grain increments. The 46 and 48 it really seems to like. 45-46.5 were all nice...

    Any loads for .308 with OAL 2.95 or longer?

    Re: Any loads for .308 with OAL 2.95 or longer? Alright, I have an update. I kept the rounds touching the lands @ 2.968. The rifle likes it! These are all 100yd 3 shot groups. The 48g load is MAX in this gun, I'll probably stick with 46 but I'll try some more around both charge weights. The...

    Any loads for .308 with OAL 2.95 or longer?

    Re: Any loads for .308 with OAL 2.95 or longer? Thanks for the responses guys. The difference in my seating depth gives me roughly 3 grains more capacity.I have been thinking I could use that extra capacity and flatten the trajectory a bit, but not if its at the expense of accuracy. I have...

    Any loads for .308 with OAL 2.95 or longer?

    I had an extended mag box put on my LTR with factory tube and it has really opened up alot of options for load potential. I'm starting load development with 168 Amax just kissing the lands @ 2.968". I plan on starting around 45g, any one have an idea what max load would be with Varget at that...

    Anyone use or prefer WLR primers in .308?

    All I could find for primers locally so I bought em up. Anyone have an opinion of them and if you have a load or powder combo with them that shoots well? Thanks dntfxr

    IMR in a .308?

    Re: IMR in a .308? 4831 is too slow for a .308. You will get very low velocities. 4895 is much better suited for the .308, but start low and work up as always.

    270 Win for sniping (shooting snipes)?
