    147eldm vs. 140 eldm

    I've shot around 1100 140 ELDs and prolly 300-400 147 ELDs this year. So far, I've had ZERO problems. With the exception of the about 100 147s from my Tikka CTR that are going 2650, the rest have been over 2900fps from an 8 twist 30" Benchmark. All mine were also purchased quite a while ago...

    Leica 2400 R

    This is the year of the LRF... So many good choices now. I love my Leicas for performance and glass, I really dont care about frills like internal ballistics. I use a garmin 701 backed up with a kestrel. Really it just comes down to get what works for you.

    water purifier

    +1 for the Katadyn. Yeah, the price sucks, but its great for multi day hunting/hiking trips especially with several people. Fills bottles and camelbaks very quickly.

    Question about reloading brand new Lapua brass

    Yeah... Last batch of Lapua 6.5CM I ran, 200 pcs same lot#. Measured necks out of the box, .287 to .291. Some wild flyers and SDs and accuracy with a known good load. Best I was able to achieve was using a .288 bushing and mandrel. Seemed to settle things down. SD around 7 but still have a...
