    I haven't seen any indications of a new model coming out yet but I have been waiting for a version 2 as well.

    Member Link Up shooting at manatee gun range, Florida

    I won't have .300 NM by next weekend. Turns out it won't fit in the Co-ax shellplate so I had to order the LS shellplate yesterday. Should be able to make it in October pretty easily.

    Rifle Scopes Seeking left-side windage scopes

    Yes, you used to be able to get USO to do left-hand windage. I had a scope made like that about a decade ago but I couldn't guarantee they will still do it.

    I have some .308 loaded up. I'll try to link up with you guys once I have the first batch of .300 NM ready for load development.

    Why not a 7 WSM?

    Jetmd- I said Bertram, Hornady, and Winchester made brass for 7 WSM. I never stated where each brass manufacturer was currently in stock, although a little effort Googling (the arduous task of typing "7 WSM Brass" then clicking on various links turns up multiple sources to include Graf's...

    Why not a 7 WSM?

    I have 2x 7 WSMs and think it is a great caliber. During load development I had a majority of 3-shot groups less than .25 moa (before people complain, I wasn't going to waste a relatively short barrel life shooting 5-round groups). The external ballistics are impressive with high BC 180 gr...

    Rifle Scopes Mixed reports on Vortex Razor AMG rifle scope

    I very much like the features and think it compares very nicely to the Kahles 6-24 I have. The tree reticle (fully illuminated) with an open dot center, locking turrets with crisp clicks, illumination switch with off in between settings, light weight, and decent zoom are all great features in...

    Rifle Scopes New to PRS matches, Fixed 10x vs 3-15x

    Get the 3-15x. I had a 10x fixed scope on one of my rifles and it worked ok for the range (as well as Iraq, but only because it was issued to me) although I routinely wanted a bit more magnification. However, there were several stages in competitions where the 10x was the bane of my...

    Range Report Jackets and RPM's

    Gain-twist barrels are usually used to spin heavy bullets faster in order to stabilize them before they leave the barrel, but start at a slower twist rate in order to try to keep pressure spikes down which allows velocity to be increased. You are correct that the projectile would have the...

    Rifle Scopes HEADS-UP - New Nightforce Models: 4-16x50, BEAST, 7-35, 3-10x42 SHV

    I was hoping too. Such a pity.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for scope recommendations for ELR rig (300 norma mag)

    At the distances you can get to with the 300 NM, it is hard not to recommend the NF 7-35. I just wish NF would offer a better choice for an illuminated tree reticle in it.

    300 Norma Mag

    Don't hold your breath on the N570. Everyone is out and Powder Valley hasn't had a shipment in over a year. I tracked down some N570 but if I had it to do over again RL25 would be the choice for me.

    300 Norma Mag

    Retumbo is not even a decent choice with the Flatlines. N570 is really good according to Warner but about impossible to find. N570 has a 100% fill, only 2 FPS slower than RL26, and keeps max pressure low. RL26 will get you a little more velocity but only a 90% fill so that may give you some...

    300 Norma Mag

    The 300 NM uses the same shellplates, case holders, and bolt casehead as the .338 LM. They are both based on the .416 Rigby Case.

    The death of one shot one kill

    That is pretty amusing if that is the case. Still though, the OP referenced "modern day Sniper tactics", "the tip of the spear", and "the White Feather days" so I figured he was talking about actual Sniper employment and techniques instead of civilian marksmanship issues.

    The death of one shot one kill

    One Shot, One Kill comes from the days when Snipers were being used offensively. Often going out in 2-man teams, stalking through the area trying to find people to kill. They were out-gunned and out-numbered while often being in enemy territory. Firing multiple times would give away your...

    Anyone know anything about F&D Defense?

    Just because the Firing Pin Protrusion is within spec doesn't mean it isn't contributing to your pierced primers. Also, primers are often pierced due to the gap between the firing pin and the rest of the bolt face leaving space for the primer to flow during firing. That is why some people get...

    strange range rules

    The part that kills me at Manatee with the qualification process is that you have to qualify for every rifle and every caliber, and then requalify every time you do load development. They should just verify whether the shooter can competently shoot out to the distance and be done with it.

    strange range rules

    I'm waiting for JTAC Ranch to open too but from what I heard last week, they still haven't turned any dirt yet to start building. I don't know if they are waiting on permits or what. http://www.theledger.com/news/20170606/county-commissioners-vote-5-0-to-ok-new-gun-range-near-mulberry
