    Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!

    No, but the hunter will according to Ted.

    Proof barrel issues

    I see a lot of vertical in those groups. If you are shooting off a bipod, try again with the rifle bagged so it can free recoil. Good luck.

    Coup De Grâce, New Action from American Rifle Company, $899 WOW!

    "one variant of a long action receiver" Does that variant need to be specified on the order? Is this only for the 338 family (including 300 NM) or will this variant and that mag work with 300 PRC or 300 WM? If not which magazine is recommended? For short action, I understand AW magazines work...

    Sorry if this is a stupid question: Is the conical breech required for all feeding systems; aics, aw, dbl, etc?

    787r actions

    Stock action port does not match the action. Does not affect function so left it as it is.

    787r actions

    Foundation which is a flawless fit but is heavy. Manners which is a poor fit but is lighter. If you don’t mind the weight, Foundation hands down.

    Are my in-puts correct? Specifically the boat tail parameters and seating depth?

    1. Reduce the powder charge until barrel time is 1.4343 2. Shoot to measure actual velocity 3. Adjust Ba until the prediction equals the measured velocity 4. Let us know how that shoots. Good luck.

    Remember simulations are just that. Trust what your rifle is telling you. 2900 fps with a 175 grain bullet is more than I would run given pressure signs at 64 gr. Slow it down or go to a lighter bullet.

    Are my in-puts correct? Specifically the boat tail parameters and seating depth?

    Eight twist is input correctly. The program only accepts the twist you input. Muzzle velocity is calculated. The other two are the standard coefficients for the powder lot they measured or the average data they obtained from the manufacturer, not the powder lot you are using. Powder burn...

    Are my in-puts correct? Specifically the boat tail parameters and seating depth?

    Eight twist? It's a bit hard to read, but I would increase the powder charge until barrel time hit 1.37135 which is halfway between OBT nodes six and seven, or reduce the powder charge until barrel time is 1.4343 which is probably too slow for your purpose. I also find the closer Pmax is to...

    American Rifle Co actions

    I agree with the Archimedes bolt stop comments but there is a technique involved that makes things better which of course I’ve forgotten. It was something like the bolt stop won’t rotate with the bold all the way to the rear. any one remember?

    Vertical stringing

    I would take off the bipod and bag the front of that rifle to shoot groups, but what do I know? Good luck.

    OCW test results

    Looks to be a one-inch minimum rifle no matter which load. I would pick a velocity you like and test seating depth. Since we are all human, it's hard to walk away from load 3. Shoot it again.

    KRG Spigot XL..?

    Figured out the problem which was the sling stud. Works fine with a Proof Sendero.
