    6xc & 8208xbr load data?

    Guess my search-fu is weak. Anyone have first hand experience with the 6xc & 8208xbr that they are willing to share? I currently have 115 DTACs, but plan to try the 105 a-max (if they ever make it back). Thanks

    .243 1/7 or 1/8tw for the heavies??

    Re: .243 1/7 or 1/8tw for the heavies?? Earlier this year I had George build me a 6xc chambered specifically for 115 dtacs. I went with his recommended 1:7.7 Bartlein; and it hammers! My 14 year old son quickly laid claim to this rifle ;>).

    175smk & Varget, plus need some input on pressures

    Re: 175smk & Varget, plus need some input on pressures Just for fun (and for test purposes) I shot my GAP Crusader at last month's 600 yard match at Butner NC. It's barrel measures 19" from the front of the recoil lug to the muzzle. One of the test loads was 43.5gr Varget, LC Match brass...

    Savage F/TR Help

    Re: Savage F/TR Help I suggest you weigh your rifle and scope, then keep that in mind as you select your accessories. The Sinclair bipod is the way to go in our game (it blows away a Harris - IMHO). If you can't do the 2lb 4oz Sinclair, you may want to check out the 19oz CenterShot carbon...

    Which camo pattern?

    Re: Which camo pattern? Wow; what a tuff crowd! It was really a simple aesthetics question. Me being a simple minded F-class shooter, I'm obviously not up on all the tactical stuff like you guys, so I thought I'd ask a simple question. Sorry to have wasted you all's time.

    Which camo pattern?

    For a drag bag and a stock pack, which camo pattern (multi-cam or woodland) would be best for a rifle in GAP camo?

    6XC ???

    Re: 6XC ??? I finally got to the range today to try some R-17 and 115 dtacs. This was with my new Templar build with a 25" Bartlein 1/7.7 twist. The most accurate load I tested was my starting load of 37.5 gr (which dummy me I didn't run thru the chrono). My hottest loaded tested (39.0 gr)...

    6XC ???

    Re: 6XC ??? Thanks for the feedback! I'll stop at 39.0 grains with my initial load development / break-in process. Finding good reloading data on the R17 & 115 dtac combo has been a challenge.

    6XC ???

    Re: 6XC ??? I'm working on some load developement for my nex 6XC. Using the 115 dtacs seated at 2.780" OAL I've started with 37.5 grains of Reloader 17. Would going up to 39.0 grains in 1/2 grain increments be reasonalbe; or would 39 grains of R-17 be too hot? I'd hate to put the time in...

    6XC Load Data Needed

    Re: 6XC Load Data Needed I loaded up my first batch of 6xc ammo on Labor Day and plan to get my latest GAP out to the range this weekend. Using 115 dtacs with an OAL of 2.780" and dropping 3 test loads of 37.5, 38.0 & 38.5 grains of Reloader 17, I was suprised at how much empty space was...
