    Waiting on 2014 AX chassis?

    Ohhh, please. Some of it is wishful thinking on the part of manufacturers,but there's a lot of syndical marketing going on too. People plan builds based on the timelines that are provided. Sure, sometimes things get pushed back but when they say that they have enough for their distributors and...

    Waiting on 2014 AX chassis?

    This is what I had heard too. They clearly say it's in stock. It never was. Very frustrating. Now I don't even want one.

    I have a PWS PRC on mine. I mounted it myself and it went on easy.

    Waiting on 2014 AX chassis?

    I initially wanted one for my build but couldn't find it so I lost interest. Went with a KRG W3 gen 4 instead.

    TAB GEAR Larger Bag

    I have always preferred the quality of the TAB bags to others but wanted it to be a little bigger. I would buy a 30 oz.

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    FCS, Just trying to figure it all out. Would 43-44 gr be considered a compressed load? Thanks.

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    Let me know if you come up with a plan. I'll do the same. For the time being, it looks like I may have to choose a load in the middle of the suggested range and use that.

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    I have used a wooden dowel to measure OAL of a chamber before with some luck. It's cheap and works well. I did order the Hornady gauge this morning, so I'll give that a shot too. I was just asking about OAL above because I wanted to use something as a starting point for some dummy rounds I'm...

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my OP. For that reason, I will excuse the dickish nature of your most recent post and questionable load data above. Good luck with the details going forward.

    Salt Bath Nitride experiences please. For 300 wm build

    I just sent my new defiance deviant bolt in for the treatment. I'm doing it to prevent rust. It's a great alternative to cerakote which apparently adds too much thickness to the tight tolerances of the deviant bolt. If it wasn't for rust concerns I would have just left the whole thing in SS...

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    This is a very helpful post. I expect that I will need to measure the actual dimension of my chamber and that I won't actually be pushing up against the lands, but I was just wondering what I should be loading my test dummy rounds to in the mean time. Also, I wanted to know if I'm going to...

    6.5 Creedmoor -- Berger 140 grain VLD Target + IMR 4350 -- What has worked for you?

    I have a new custom rifle coming and I'm new to loading 6.5 Creedmoor. I couldn't find 140 A-max or H4350. I ended up with Berger 140 VLD Target bullets and IMR 4350. I would appreciate it if you would share loads, OAL, and distance of jump that has worked for you with these components. On...

    xlr evolution question

    The cheek rest on the XLR is fully adjustable. Unless you're already committed to another style, I would give it a try before replacing it. I find it very comfortable. However, I do know a number of people like to use a modified Magpul PRS on it. With regard to rings, you'll find that with a...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor II 4.5-27x56 Ring Height

    Does anyone have the Vortex Razor II 4.5-27x56 on a Defiance Deviant action with a Bartlein M24 6.5 CM barrel? I would appreciate the benefit of your experience on ring height for this setup. I plan on using Seekins rings and I'm trying to figure which ones will get me closest to the barrel...

    I wouldn't question this guy's method on anything. When he says he has a good feel for it, I believe him. I've watched his entire series and it is more comprehensive than even many of the books written on this topic. He has a lot of experience and seems to really know his stuff. Plus, he's a...

    Black Hills Ammo issue

    The couple boxes of Black Hills I put through my 700 AAC hovered around 1 moa or just above. Other match grade ammo shot consistently better. It may just be my particular barrel, but it's not my go to.
