    Ackley Imp

    Re: Ackley Imp Ditto on the Nosler stuff its good, I just got some. Slayer if you have to use .270's you'll have to expand the neck over .338 O.D. or else you won't have a shoulder far enough foward to headspace on.

    Ackley Imp

    Re: Ackley Imp I got a 8-280 AI and am building a .280 AI but in my experience all my cases fire better when formed to the guns chamber. No matter if they are A.I. or not. or were you just showing off? But I do like the velocity of the 8-280 w 180's 3000 fps. which one are you doing?

    powder measuring

    Re: powder measuring Okay so we agree technique is critical, so lets give him a bone. This is how I do it but strap in and get some more responses before jumping on it. I like to lift swiftly to the top so it hits the top with enough force to jiggle stuff, and hesitate there, then come down...

    7 mm. Rem.

    Re: 7 mm. Rem. Norma was and is good stuff. I don't like it for cartridges I run "hot" though, because I have the opinion that the head is softer and smears at lower press's indicated by harder opening bolt's with alot lower charges. I realise that there are some volumetric reasons for this...

    OAL question

    Re: OAL question I've had rifles that shot their best as far back as .1 jump don't sweat the s.s. if thats where your load is gonna be anyway there is plenty of other stuff you can tweak. I think what your refering to is fireforming brass that has been turned as opossed to brass that hasn't...

    Best balance type scale

    Re: Best balance type scale Back to Fuzzball, Maybe but I've owned several magnetically dampened and this one oil one and in my experience it beats all. So maybe I just got the best oil one they ever made and the magnetic ones were toward the bottom of the bell curve, or maybe when they were...

    7 mm. Rem.

    Re: 7 mm. Rem. When I said same as any other brass, thats what I meant, but to add to that 3 times with a hunting load, My target loads are usually designed to provide long brass life and barrel life etc.etc. but My hunting loads are not i.e. my hunting rifles don't get shot nearly as much as...

    Less powder more velocity?

    Re: Less powder more velocity? Was the seating depth the same? if you seated deeper and the volume was decreased you can gain velocity also if you seat longer but you're in the lands( some people say jam) that can increase pressure and velocity as well hope this helps.

    Fieldcraft One shot.. to multiple targets.. what changed?

    Re: One shot.. to multiple targets.. what changed? My point is, flexibility and agility are the strength of small units. When a rifleman has the opportunity to influence the outcome by maximizing his lethality by engaging multiple targets this is opportunity indeed. We are all...

    Fieldcraft Bullet Trace

    Re: Bullet Trace http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7B9NkQldeu0 My Fav watch for the apogee in the bushes beyond the white target it appears as a disturbance in the mirage. Also the slow mo at the end gives me a woody.

    Re: One shot.. to multiple targets.. what changed? Carlos employed some pretty impressive multiple target tactics so it must of been earlier then that.

    7 mm. Rem.

    Re: 7 mm. Rem. Rl22 is a good powder for that when you restock your supply, about 3 times for a "hunting load"

    7 mm. Rem.

    Re: 7 mm. Rem. About the same as any case, the hotter you go, the faster they fail. Out of the powders you mentioned I'd go with the 4831 and 160's for a g.p. load.

    Best balance type scale

    Re: Best balance type scale Hope I didn't hurt anybody's neck. But there is a paddle that goes down directly from the pivot point into a resevoir and you can adjust the sensitivity by the amount of oil you put in the more oil you put in the greater the resistance to the paddle. But #1 on...
