    What scope is everyone running for elr

    Had a great discussion on adjustable bases vs CharlieTerac and internal scope turret adjustment. I do tend to agree that the CT and internal scope adjustments would be prone to being more precise when making elevation changes - good points that possibly might have swayed my purchase decision...

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    I thought it was pretty informative video. For my plinker purposes I just load to mag len and pump em out at slower velocities. I have VLDs for the speeders/Long Range that group well, but they are still only around 2650 which are also mag len. I may try working some brass to up the speed on...

    6.5 Creedmoor for a mile?

    My wife just last week popped about 100 balloons that we had strung up for my lil bits 7th bday party. I almost stopped her but figured that would lead to more questions I didn't really want to answer and I can stop at the Dollar General on the way to the range so... Anyone else use balloons to...

    6mm ARC Brass Forming

    Looks good. I had a kinetic puller pop a primer off on a loaded 30-06 garand round a decade ago. I still remember the primer flying through the air in my old place. I wrapped that kinetic puller in my dirty shorts threw it in the trash and never looked back. I have Grip n pulls now and they are...

    Neck turning first timer here. what do you guys run on wall thickness. my measurent with the ball gauge is 0.0131" I run a Forster Bushing die and cant remember what bushing is in it, but right now I'm wondering how much if any more to take off the necks. Will be loaded for 123 Flatlines. thx.

    What scope is everyone running for elr

    I would set the front handguard up to be perfectly level in a stand or something then put a level on the pic rail. If the scope is mounted you could also take measurements from the front and rear edge of the pic rail and do the math to find the slope.

    6mm ARC Brass Forming

    Excellent work! Good test for annealing before forming. I've formed about 1200 cases so far minimal issues. I'm about to try neck turning some for ultra match rounds. I also found that my chamber has a very long neck and I can trim to 1.195" and sell chamber sized case and lock the bolt with...

    300 PRC update

    Used rifle on the way. Hint - no structured barrel. I will need a brake(Cortina Tuner Brake?) and some powder, I think I have everything else. Will be digging on the recipes and new profiles for strelock.

    Firearms 300 PRC Bergara LRP 2.0 $1,650

    hey I might be interested in this rifle. I was considering a custom build but the $$$... have you had any problems with it? any targets to share? what ammo do you run?

    300 PRC update

    Any thoughts on Structured Barrell with a +1 twist for copper solids? Would the faster spin rate be better for turned copper solids. I'm thinking more spin would be better through the transonic zone will help stabilize it no? nice info thread , I'm about to read/catch up on it.

    6.5 Creedmoor

    Good score! I loved the way Stay Ball metered. I don't see any problem with using those primers.

    Ivey Adjustable base with Sightron SIII 10-50 on 6.5 CM

    Same... as far as spotting goes. I can't hardly drag people to my range. Running errands at lunch(including the fun shop)...I'll be looking for old LA 700s and savages. Hoping to get some chrono results this weekend. I just body sized and mandrel sized 500 6ARC cases.

    What scope is everyone running for elr

    Hey guys I have 1 range trip (~40rounds) on an awesome new setup. Right now its on a Ruger RAP 6.5 but I have other plans already. I am going to get use to this setup on the 6.5 until the other build is done then plop it on that. Basically its an Ivey 200MOA base with a Sightron SIII 10-50...

    Ivey Adjustable base with Sightron SIII 10-50 on 6.5 CM

    OK, I'll be scoping out old LAs then...what caliber would have the same bolt head/face and thus need another less part for the transformation?

    Ivey Adjustable base with Sightron SIII 10-50 on 6.5 CM

    OK, I got the 123 FlatLines loaded. I normally do a pair of bullets for each powder load to test for pressure, but since these are expensive, I loaded just 5 rounds to test for velocity. I'm still thinking I will be subsonic with the 22" RAP barrel at 1800 yards but we will see. I do have a...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    Loaded up the 123 FlatLines - just loaded 5 rounds going up in pressure. Loaded 50 Barnes 140 MBs. It is strange to see pressure that low, good luck with it.
