    Finally time to show it

    I have been lurking around here for awhile now and since my rifle came back from the smith it's finally time to show it off. It started life as a Remington 700p in 7mmRemMag. Scope is a Bushnell 2.5x16 tactical, rings TPS steel on a EGW base. Joe Collier of Collier Rifles here in GA added the...

    How long is "to" long

    Re: How long is "to" long It is a 5R. I measured it several times using the cleaning rod method Tresmon talks about. the ogive measurement is 2.215, so compaired to turbohardtop's it's a bit shorter then his. Guess i'll try some out. It just seams really far out.

    How long is "to" long

    I'm working up a load for a Rem 700 R5. I measured the chamber to be 2.926 to the lands. Mag length is 2.810. When I compare a projectile to the dummy round I assembled to touch the lands I only have .15 of the case mouth holding the projectile... Is that enough? I'm working this load up for...

    drilling thru steel

    Re: drilling thru steel Alot of the hassle will be determined by the size of the hole you want to put in the plate. The bigger the hole the harder it is to drill. Masonary bits will work to drill hardened steel, I have used them in a pinch when I run out of my regular hardplate safe bits...

    savage MK 2 TR

    Re: savage MK 2 TR Welp, it didn't help so Monday it's getting boxed up to go back to Savage. I tried 4 more different ammo types at the range this morning, a different scope and had one of the old benchrest shooters at the range try it out and he didn't do any better.

    Range Report Extrapolating Ballistic Data

    Re: Extrapolating Ballistic Data Well i figured my problem out. My scope tracks 5 moa per 4 moa dialed. The 11 moa I actually dialed comes to 13.75 moa which is much closer to the 13.3 moa JBM called for. Is there a way to adjust JBM to take into account the different tracking?

    savage MK 2 TR

    Re: savage MK 2 TR Think I may have to send my TR back to the factory. 200 rnds through it, have replaced the mounts with EGW 20moa rail and tried 3 different scopes. Still can't get the accuracy it should have, 1.5" at 50 is best I can get with most groups over 2". At 100 it looks like I...

    Range Report Extrapolating Ballistic Data

    Re: Extrapolating Ballistic Data Will check both of these ideas. The load is only 63.1 of H1000 which is pretty low, 2700 was my target velocity. Will check scope calibration.

    Range Report Extrapolating Ballistic Data

    I shot my first long range f-class match yesterday shooting 600yds. I adjusted based off JBM using Brian Litz's G7 BC's and shot 12" high. Once I moved down 2 MOA I was dead on and was fine. Now I am trying to get my data closer for future shooting but the only way I get the same adjustment I...

    savage MK 2 TR

    Re: savage MK 2 TR Just got one of these rifles myself and have to say I'm a bit disappointed. Only tried 2 ammo types so far Wolf target was best at 2.25" group at 50yds and Federal wallyworld special was 3.50" at 50yds. Rifle is stock with Center-Point 4X16 on factory bases and Harris...

    New Brass Prep

    Working on prepping some new Winchester brass. The length is all under the trim length but they do very. Should I trim them all to match the shortest?
