    Accessories SOLD KUIU GUIDE JACKET Reduced

    we are about the same height and same arm length and will check chest measurements when I get home this evening and let you know about that. I have broad shoulders but the love of craft beer has altered the athletic build. I typically wear it over wool T, a zip-T, medium weight mid layer then if...

    300 PRC update

    My math is better then my shooting so here you go; 2 pounds = 14,000 gr. so say 76gr per round for your 300PRC = 184 rounds. Anyway I to would like to hear if anyone has actually used this powder and what they think. I've tried the N565 and found it to be just OK for my rifle.

    I'm shooting a 22.5" 300 PRC barrel suppressed using the 212ELDX bullets. Accurate and easy to load for, have been using RL26 and have several loads worked up that I use depending on the temp. My only issue has been a sticky bolt using brass that isn't virgin. Once I dug into why i found out...

    300 PRC update

    Measured up some of the Hornady and ADG brass, unfortunately I didn’t have an unfired Hornady brass to measure. Rather interesting to look at the brass growth progression of the brass. Measurements were taken using a Whidden shoulder comparator which from memory measures at the .420 area of the...

    300 PRC update

    thanks davethedog, I do use a comparator. My brass is going on it's second firing, I only size the neck on new brass and then bump the shoulder back .002 there after. I haven't taken any shoulder measurements on the twice fired brass yet but will and report back with the once and twice fire...

    300 PRC update

    Thank you for the response and the link. Looks like this problem isn’t uncommon. I might just try to polish the first 3/4” of the chamber out a bit and see what happens. But the Redding FL die might be a better route, you mention that it resized the brass back to spec, could you give me what...

    300 PRC update

    I agree, thank you. I feel there is no doubt the heavy bolt lift is a result of limited space for the expansion/contraction cycle of the case. Doing some testing I’ve reduced these second firing loads by 2 grans from my summer loads and shooting in 30-40 degree cooler weather so the loads, still...

    300 PRC update

    Thank you sir, exactly the info I was looking for. Our results are similar. After looking at the chamber and cartridge specs the best I can tell is that by design the cartridge/chamber can be very tight depending on the actual min and max tolerance values of each. So guessing it’s the luck of...

    300 PRC update

    Thanks for the response, a tighter die would work as would enlarging the chamber but I don’t understand if everything is in spec why the problem. Not sure I understand what you mean about growth of the brass after sizing. New brass measures about 0.527, after it is fired the first time it...
