    trajectory angle

    Re: trajectory angle You use LESS moa for the steep elevation change. It is the HORIZONTAL distance that your ballistic chart is calibrated for.

    reading calipers? o

    Re: reading calibers? If you think that algebra has no use consider this: How much do I have to take off the front of my Picatinny rail to get a 20 moa cant? There are literally millions of other similar uses of basic algebra, geometry and trig.

    Rifle Scopes NXS or Mark 4? PIC Posted!

    Re: NXS or Mark 4? I have both the 5.5-22x50 and 5.5-22x56 and I have put them side by side during dusk and watched a spec of rust on a pipe on a building 180 yards away and couldn't tell the difference. They both went away at the same time. The 50 is smaller and looks better on a smaller...

    I need opinions on my first 260 build

    Re: I need opinions on my first 260 build The least expensive way to get a Remington action is an ADL for $400. It is the model you find at the discount stores with a cheap scope on it. Everything else will be the same. So the difference will be between the 400 for the Rem action and...

    What dies are you using?

    Re: What dies are you using? Hugo121175, what Redding die do you use to bump the neck? For .260 Rem, I'm using Redding body die, Redding Competition bushing neck sizing die and Redding Competition bushing Seater. The Competition (micrometer adjusting) NECK SIZING works but is overkill, the...

    Gunsmithing 308, 243, or 260 rem?

    Re: 308, 243, or 260 rem? You can get the full potential out of an AICS mag if you throat the barrel right. I have a Rem 260 and 140 Bergers touch the lands at 2.85". I load 2.845" OAL. The AICS mag will accept round 2.88" long. For Bergers you need short throating as their "ogive base"...

    Gunsmithing 308, 243, or 260 rem?

    Re: 308, 243, or 260 rem? There are 3 and soon to be 4 (Lapua) mfgs of 260 Remington brass. There is only one maker of 6.5 Creedmoor brass and only one maker of 6.5x47 Brass. Creedmoor brass is slightly shorter brass so you may have an easier time fitting the AICS magazines but really, if you...

    Arbor Presses

    Re: Arbor Presses To seat with an arbor press you need Wilson dies or other hand type dies. One thing you will be doing is adjusting the height of the press often. Pick a press where that is easy to do. Usually they make a little bushing that you put the cartridge on. It makes it easier to...

    Hand Loading for Long Range 4: Powderin' it

    Re: Hand Loading for Long Range 4: Powderin' it Don't forget that the powder batch number can have a big effect on accuracy. Easiest solution is to buy powder by the 8lb container. If you go to a match make sure the powder batch is the same as the one you got your dope from. Powder variation...
