    That's messed up.

    6.5 creedmoor reloading data??

    Thanks for the explanation. I'll take your post as somewhat of an endorsement to go forth and use RL17 in my Creed, as I can't find H4350 to save my life, but I did manage to score a couple pounds of RL17.

    6.5 creedmoor reloading data??

    Pardon my ignorance, but how would you burn out your barrel quicker using the RL17 when you are using the same amount of powder? Does the fact that it's dirtier have anything to do with it? Does RL17 burn hotter than H4350?

    Wilson vs Redding neck bushings

    So how are those Whidden dies working for you and which bushings did you end up using?

    Movie Theater Actor you hate . . . and that hatred is irrational, unreasonable, pointless.

    Roddy McDowall, Mike Brady from the Brady Bunch, John Malkovich, Wanda Sykes, and Alyssa Milano....at least off the top of my head. Yeah, I know - kinda random.

    Lefty wins the Open

    I was very happy for him as well. The last 6 holes he played were ridiculous.

    Could a .260 Lee Collet die be used on 6.5CM?

    Could a .260 Lee Collet die be used on 6.5CM?

    Is the 6.5 Creedmoor case close enough to the 260 Rem that a Lee Collet die for the 260 could be used to size the necks on a Creed?

    New Surgeon Scalpel 6.5 CM Hornady factory 140 Amax blowing primers

    Rob, you're right. I'll call them early next week. That is awfully generous (and kind!) of you to offer some of your once-fired, but this isn't your problem to fix. I was just taken aback by their response. I would have thought they'd be more eager to make a loyal customer happy. There is...

    New Surgeon Scalpel 6.5 CM Hornady factory 140 Amax blowing primers

    Rob, I'll have to look to see if I have any left. I haven't sent any in for them to test. And frankly, after that response of blaming it all on my gun and not offering to replace the brass, I'm not too keen on shipping off (on my dime) precious ammo that might not get replaced. None of my...

    New Surgeon Scalpel 6.5 CM Hornady factory 140 Amax blowing primers

    I shouldn't have to go get a factory barrel that shoots lights-out slugged. Factory ammo, factory gun (one of the few guns that are factory-chambered for that round, I might add!). To be honest, I'm rather disappointed in Hornady's response. I was just hoping that they would replace mangled...

    New Surgeon Scalpel 6.5 CM Hornady factory 140 Amax blowing primers

    Here's my experience, first with my email to Hornady: I bought several boxes of Hornady Match 6.5 Creedmoor ammo with the 140gr Amax. I was shooting the ammo through a clean Savage 12 LRP (all stock, nothing aftermarket) in 95 degree weather with very low humidity. I was firing at a slow pace...

    Amen to that, brother.
