    CMMG barrels

    Hello: I am working on getting parts together for a 300BO build, mainly for hunting purposes. I was wondering about the CMMG barrels and has anyone had any experience with them. The price won't brake the bank and leave money for other parts but if they won't shoot, then I will look elsewhere...

    171 match burner for 7mm-08

    This is great guys, keep it up. I weighed quite a few of the 168SMK last night and they had more out of line for weight bullets than I would have thought. Is anybody else found this to be true with Sierra's? Just for kicks, I have some 168 Nosler custom competitions and they were spot on at...

    Loads for 7-08.

    OK I had a chance to get to the range this weekend and chrono'd the rounds. they came in at 2504fps. Would've liked to have seen a little more velocity but it is what it is. Also, at 324yds it was putting them in a 2" square. I didn't think that was too bad.

    I will try to chrono this asap and get back to ya'. I did ream out the necks after the first firing and neck turned them slightly also. If I new how to post a picture I would post the OCW targets I shot.

    Loads for 7-08.

    I worked up a very good load with 39.5gr of Varget pushing a 168gr SMK. I couldn't decide which load to go with from my OCW test because most all of them 0.5 moa groups, so I went with the highest load for velocity reasons. I have not tried H4350 with the SMK's yet but will now. All these are...

    Loads for 7-08.

    Hodgen, what twist do have on your barrel to shoot thise 175's? I'm not sure I can stabilize them in my 9 twist barrel. I may just sell them if you want them

    Help with Lapua brass

    Thanks guys. It just seemed it was way short at the manufacture length of 2.018-9. Maybe i am over thinking this.

    Help with Lapua brass

    Hello: I bought some Lapua 260 brass for necking it up to 7mm for 7mm-08 loads. According to my reloading manuals, 260 and 7mm-08 brass are 2.035" in length. The brass that I received all measure 2.018-9 in length. Is this normal for Lapua brass to be this short? This is my first using Lapua...

    7-08 and 175 SMK

    I found them at a sporting goods store not too far from here but far enough to have to order them. I also have been using H4350. When my rifle gets back to me, I will run a shoot off with 200MR, H4350 and Varget. May try RL17 also. The gun has only about 140rds thru it now. The barrel is a 24"...

    7-08 and 175 SMK

    Has anyone shot the 175 gr SMK's in 7-08? If so, what were your findings and what powder? I have ordered some of these to try but not sure what to expect. I'm currently using PP 2000 MR under 162gr Amax's. Thanks in advance

    Looking at getting a good AR 22

    Are you wanting a conversion or a AR 22 platform? The S&W 15/22 is probably the best AR 22. You can change the handguard and the trigger to your liking.It's a great little platform for training w/o the cost of the didecated uppers.

    7mm-08 and Berger classic 168's

    I guess it's time for me to add some specifics. After shooting for load development I decided on 42gr of 2000mr. This was in the middle of the node and was starting to show some slight pressure signs. Next came the bullet seating depth test. I use base to ogive length only. Too many variables...

    Rifle Scopes Is a $$ scope worth the money?

    What about the Sightron III line? I have very good things ragarding them. They are a little to right at a grand.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 9mm 1911 or 2011 suggestions

    My $.02. Look hard at the CZ's Especially the SP01. Mags hold 19rds and shoot like a dream. I think they are going around $1300 all tuned up. Off the shelf gun would be the S & W M&P 9 with the 5.25" barrel. This one would be easier on the pocket book. Good luck
