    Most Accurate factory 50bmg on the market???

    Randy built mine as well. It is an amazingly accurate 50. I win most of the matches I shoot with it. Too bad you can't keep it!

    Most Accurate factory 50bmg on the market???

    Having a long and extensive history of shooting, load developing and competing with many different 50 BMG rifles, I can say with total confidence that I can load 50 ammo for less money than 408 cheytac and with the right ammo it is more accurate than anything I have used up to a mile. The big...

    So should my next step be different dies, or different brass?

    Trouble getting my 408 CT to shoot under 1 MOA

    I'm beginning to think its my ammo. The last batch I made up the bullets were seating with all different amounts of effort. I actually had one round that I could pull the bullet in and out by hand. This is twice fired Bertram brass resized on a CH4D die in a RCBS press. I don't know what the...

    Trouble getting my 408 CT to shoot under 1 MOA

    Kilmore - I did the same thing with the wrench. I did notice a sight improvement by doing this but it took this to get close to 1 MOA. Dogtown - I did do their exact prescribed seating method, good thought though. The gun has been back to EDM and Bill blamed the bad accuracy on the RND bipod...

    Trouble getting my 408 CT to shoot under 1 MOA

    I would be ecstatic to see .5 to .75 MOA out of this rifle. I am starting to think this rifle just isn't capable of anything better. I also switched to an ergo psg style grip. I will geep trying I just ordered 50 more CE bullets, but after 155 rounds down range with basically the same results I...

    Trouble getting my 408 CT to shoot under 1 MOA

    I have an edm arms XM408 with RND Bipod assembly. I have been testing loads with Bertram brass, 131 to 135 grains of retumbo and cutting edge as well as rocky mountain bullets. I am loading on CH4D dies. I have shot groups from 100 to 500 yards and I am consistently getting 1 MOA at best...

    50BMG match brass? Where to find it

    Talking to shooters at FCSA matches over the years IMI brass came very highly recommended by many. I have had great luck with fully prepped LC brass sorted by weight. I always shot from 5" to 12" groups at 1000 yards with VV20n29 and Leigh High Solids out of my custom Mcmillan.

    77gr SMK Possible Powders

    Thanks for all the good replies! Well due to the total lack of availability of anything else it looks like I will have to load my 2000 77gr SMK with w748 since its the only powder I currently have enough that I can load them all. I really hope I am not wasting these bullets! I'm thinking...

    77gr SMK Possible Powders

    I will be shooting these out of 10.5 in and 14.7 in gas guns with 1/7 twist barrels if that changes anything. I have a few pounds of AA2520, 1 pound of 8208xbr and a few pounds of varget. I have 8 pounds each of 748 and surplus 844t. The bullets were not cheap so I don't want to load with a...

    Ruger 10/22 needs to perform better

    I shoot sub .5 MOA out of my other precision rifles so I don't feel that it's me. I took the gun all apart today and cleaned everything thoroughly, including the barrel. I Noticed the screw holding the action in the stock was not tight, but not totally loose either, so I am hoping that had...

    Ruger 10/22 needs to perform better

    The barrel was brand new before the wolf, but I didn't clean it between shooting each brand. The barrel is free floated. Any idea where to find any good ammo? Seems everywhere is sold out.

    F T/R Competition Shooting my first f-class with my AI

    Well the pulling you describe sounds exactly like the pulling we do in FCSA. Pull and mark every shot with a small, large, or green disc in a matter of seconds. And score the target for group and score. Am I wrong?

    F T/R Competition Shooting my first f-class with my AI

    I have done plenty of FCSA bench rest type matches and pits were utilized in all of these. While I am new to f class I am not new to 1000 yard br type matches with pulled targets. I'm not worried about that aspect of it at all. I just don't want to show up with a rifle or equipment that is not...
