    opinion on my Ladder results 338 / 260

    Both tested at 490 yards in around 10-20 knots of varying wind swirling in a gully 338 LM... -- DTA SRS A1 My first Ladder test narrowed my range down to 91.1 to 91.9 gr of N570. The pic attached of the 8 shot group (91.5 went astray, like waaay away, dont know what happened there) has all...

    Cleaning and Accuracy.. does a fouled barrel affect the shot?

    Fair enough. I have a DTA SRS A1 in 260 and 338 also... have you ladder tested it, and what sort of MOA are you shooting with the 338 ?

    Cleaning and Accuracy.. does a fouled barrel affect the shot?

    so, even if you have a shoot and fire say 10 rounds, you dont clean the barrel at all before putting away in storage.? Only every few times ?

    Ultrasonic Cleaner - what's best to put in ?

    I used 1) 50:50 vinegar water + dish soap 2) tartar powder (to neutralise) + water 3) hot water 4) distilled water Did the relevant times on each. Brass this morning after leaving overnight is going slightly green.... Does that mean the vinegar hasn't been fully removed or neutralised? They...

    Ultrasonic Cleaner - what's best to put in ?

    So i've got this right. You have water in the ultrasonic tub. You put the 600 ml beaker in the tub, and the beaker is sticking out the top of the ultrasonic bath, so that none of the tap water is getting into the beaker. The point being i assume to use the U/S machine to shake the bubbles out of...

    Fire forming - seating depth ?

    Fireforming my 338 Lap brass to my chamber... I am finding 1 or even 2 isnt enough to make it tight, although, i think on the 2nd firing it might be finding the correct chamber/shoulder, because the variation in the cases from base to shoulder is only around 1 thou, so i'm guessing those are...

    Fire forming - seating depth ?

    Hi all, When Fire forming, what seating depth should i use? Should i jam the bullet into the lands to give the most pressure? Or can this slightly hinder the shoulder from moving forward?

    Ultrasonic Cleaner - what's best to put in ?

    Hi all, What is best to use in my Ultrasonic cleaner. I've got demineralised water, just not sure what else to use. I have Brasso, but am told the Ammonia in it causes the Brass to stress or something. Some people are suggesting Cream of Tarter, or Baking Soda... Any suggestions and the...
