    Benchmark Barrels 6.5 WSM (900 round update)

    Re: Benchmark Barrels 6.5 WSM The rifle does look nice and I too am looking forward to seeing the finished product. What sling is that? How do you like it for both carrying and shooting the rifle? Will there be a bipod mounted in the future, if so, what kind? I have a custom rig coming in...

    Rifle specific podcasts

    Re: Rifle specific podcasts we've all seen some of the youtube videos about how to shoot a rifle. Something I found interesting is that in the last few issues of TargetShooter online magazine there is an ongoing series about how to get into a propper positoin for smallbore rifle shooting...

    Need advice on my OCW results

    Re: Need advice on my OCW results First off- thanks for not posting some dumbass thread about "what product/load works best because I don't want to find out for myself." Going back to your original question, I might look at load #7 for an OCW. The reason I say this is that loads 6,7,8 give...

    Range Report Do you ONLY shoot match grade ammo?

    Re: Do you ONLY shoot match grade ammo? Kindof along the same lines as what you've got going on... On another forum somebody had a wicked-acurate Suhl super .22 for sale for $1000+, and some person asked how well it shot bulk ammo. I couldn't help but wonder: does this person put shit gas...

    How probable is this?

    Re: How probable is this? I just sold a rifle claiming that it will hold 1/2 minute groups with handloads if a propper cleaning cycle is used. That being said: don't think for one minute that I didn't include targets to prove my claims. Like the other fella said: one tight group does not...

    AR10T 20" - Varget Vs H4895? - 1000 yards

    Re: AR10T 20" - Varget Vs H4895? - 1000 yards BTW- they're both good powders, otherwise Hodgdon wouldn't be making them. I prefer H4895 because it flows through the thrower easier and, IN MY PARTICULAR FIREARM, it yeilds better velocities. However I also found that Varget gives more...

    AR10T 20" - Varget Vs H4895? - 1000 yards

    Re: AR10T 20" - Varget Vs H4895? - 1000 yards There's an exellent on-going article series on handloading .308 winchester in the TargetShooter online magazine. It'll help you answer questions for yourself and make educated decisions. Like you said, it depends on the rifle. No two are...

    Building a new rifle?

    Re: Building a new rifle? Thanks for what? I must be missing something. Figure out what you're gonna do with it (targets or hunting?), what distance do you want it to perform that task out to, select an appropriate chambering, go purchase a Savchesterington chambered for that cartridge...

    Re: Millett TRS-1 problems Let me get this straight- you're concerned about the quality of your scope, but have yet to actually shoot the setup and actually zero your scope? Please tell me I'm confused. I'm seriously considering one of these scopes for my build and want to make sure you're...

    Berger 155 VLD

    Re: Berger 155 VLD I use a sharpie marker on an unprimed/uncharged bullet barely seated into the brass, then seat a little the bullet a bit deeper until the ink (touched up after each seating) comes out with no rifling marks. This will tell you where the bullet seating depth will engage the...
