    My journey into this stuff, a range diary with a Tikka

    I'm running the fullbores in .308 but the hybrid design is very good also, I have a bunch of 140 Hybrids for 6.5cm and they are amazingly good.

    That's not a human being. That's Chuck Norris. Amazing accomplishment.

    My journey into this stuff, a range diary with a Tikka

    Noslers are most definitely junk. I have not found two that matched in weight nor dimensions, but they do ok at mid range. Berger 155.5 fullbores are my go-to for 1000 yards and perform better at long range than 175 match kings in my opinion. I run the 155.5's at 44.5 gr. Varget, 2750 fps...

    Berger Sales Suspended - at one retailer

    That's the second price increase as well. I believe they announced a previous price gouge of 25% in November of last year or thereabouts. I know raw materials supposedly went up some, but companies are trying to make up for being on lockdown by increasing prices. They should stop paying...

    ADG brass primer pockets loose

    That load may be too hot or you have a carbon ring. May have larger issues in warmer weather like I had with RL-16 (which is more sensitive than H4350) I had an awesome load of 41.4 of RL-16 and 140 Hybrids going 2810 fps at 75 degrees, and then last summer on 105 degree days that exact load...

    338 Lapua Magnum

    I found I've always had to FL size LM brass. In your pic it looks like you might have had too much neck tension and seating the bullet pushed the neck into the shoulder some. Do you have a turning or expanding mandrel die by chance to set the neck tension? I stopped using my very expensive...

    The new "Assault Weapons" ban supposedly is being announced today as well as expanded red flag laws and magazine capacity restrictions in a series of Executive Actions.

    KAC SR25 challenge!!!

    I can easily take that $100.00 with my setup as long as: 1. I can use an LMT 2. Groups have to be 1 shot groups (I get 0.0001 MOA 1-shot groups all day long) 3. No video 4. No photos :)

    KAC SR25 challenge!!!

    My LWRC CSASS (actual CSASS edition vs REPR MK2) was a 2 MOA gun on a good day. Beautifully built, but didn't run very well. Had to send it in with cycling issues and just got tired of it. Sold it at a huge loss and kept the LMT. I just shot a 6x5 the other day with it, but haven't measured...

    GUI Interfaces on Future Kestrel Ballistics Units

    Kestrels are nice, but future versions having the following would make me upgrade: 1. E-Ink screens 2. Keep the buttons 3. Allow more characters in profile naming 4. (Big one) ALLOW US TO SORT PROFILES IN ANY ORDER THAT WE WANT

    Brass Catcher

    Go with the Tactical Brass Recovery option mentioned above. Buy once, cry once. Plus they articulate so you can swing them in and out of the way for manipulation of the rifle, chamber check, etc. And they fold flat against the receiver when not in use.. Buy once, cry once.

    LMT MWS 308

    I love my LMT and never selling it (unless someone offers me enough money for it to make it worth it) I shoot mine very often. I would at least keep one of your two, because you might regret selling later on. Who knows what will happen or when we can get parts/rifles when we want them and not...

    338 Caliber Restriction.

    There's almost zero public land in all of Texas. The few national forests, parks, etc., don't allow recreational shooting anymore. The rest is all private land.

    338 Caliber Restriction.

    True. I think my post sounded whiny, that was not the intent. I don't own a range, I'm sure there are valid reasons. The one I frequent allows up to 50 BMG but not M855 or AP anywhere which is understandable.

    338 Caliber Restriction.

    You're talking what, a 200 fps difference between the allowed and not-allowed? I can understand "no 50 BMG" but to limit 338 and certain 30's is just dumb. Nobody is shooting these things at steel closer than 400 so the impact on steel isn't that much different at longer ranges. More energy...

    338 Caliber Restriction.

    But will they really know? I mean, you could just say you're shooting 300WM and still shoot NM. Or do they actually check your ammo?
