    280 Rem

    Re: 280 Rem My vote would be for the 284 Winchester or the Shehane version shooting 180g Bergers either VLD or Hybrids. I like the case shape better than the 06 based cases. Barrel life for Fclass precision should be around 3000 rounds.

    Range Report First Impressions with 7mm Berger Hybrids

    After reading about the Hybrids from the posting of bohem, I was finally able to get my hands on some to try out. I was excited about the concept of this bullet with its BC greater than the VLD with less issues with seating depth due to its hybrid ogive, so finally loaded some up to try. My...

    Barrel Selection for 223?

    Re: Barrel Selection for 223? Again, only a one barrel experience. I had my Ruger M77 rebarreled by PacNor to a 3 groove barrel finished at 26 inches and chambered in .25-06 by them. They also trued the action for me too while it was there. My 3 groove shoots very well for me. The barrel...

    Need load data for a 25/06

    Re: Need load data for a 25/06 The NBT and the Etip shoot to the same POI in my .25-06. I use the NBT to practice and will probably use the Etip in the fall.

    Long range loading nitpickers

    Re: Long range loading nitpickers I think the difference in thrown weight/weighed weight is why a true OCW load is so important. This load will not be swayed by 0.2+/-g and will contact with the same POI at long distance due to similar velocities.

    load develooment with unfired brass???

    Re: load develooment with unfired brass??? I use 20 cases for load development. Load up differing powder charges to shoot through the chrony to find my usable max loads. Neck size those cases and either shoot OCW/Ladder testing to find sweet spot. Neck size again and play with OAL to find...

    6.5 hunting bullets

    Re: 6,5 hunting bullets Hard to argue against that 0.571 SII listed BC for hunting out to 600 yards. I still think the 130g Berger VLD would be my "hunting" choice.

    How to get through to Sharp Shooters Supply

    Re: How to get through to Sharp Shooters Supply My brother has tried on multiple occasions to order from SSS and give them money. On four different occasions, no product/service rendered so he had to reverse charges. Due to his experience, this is a company I will never deal with.

    Wichester M70 caliber conversion

    Re: Wichester M70 caliber conversion rth1000 Compare a 150g Berger with BC of 0.531 at 3200 fps (doubt can get that fast in 270Win though) to a 180g Berger with BC of 0.659 at 2950 fps (easy to get in 284 Win with RL17 in my rifle) to see what wins. If you plug both into JBM, the 180g...
