    .224 Valkyrie

    Standard RCBS set but the neck tension is a lot. Every time I have to pull bullets they are the worst I have ever loaded including crimped rounds. I ordered a RCBS bushing die from midway yesterday since there is a rebate thru tomorrow. Ordered a couple of bushings depending on which brass I...

    Rifle Scopes Delete please

    Bad girl for trigger control. I keep telling her but she just won’t listen. When she is done making my sandwich I will spank her. Lol

    Sit or Stand when reloading?

    I sit when running progressive but screw the stool up. I stand when doing single rounds. Idk, concentration I guess.

    Ear muffs

    Seems pro ears and msa are the big players here. My real big concern here is the wind noise though. Example: I am shooting on a bench in 12mph wind at my 3 o’clock and my spotter is behind me calling 600 yd target. I have a plate and want to hear impact but with wind noise it sometimes is a...

    Rifle Scopes Delete please

    Like it’s said earlier. I have too noticed, beginners seem to go toward moa and then go mil but which ever works for you. If you want to shoot league go with their language. I have a buddy who is a blacksmith who doesn’t shoot much but loves moa for the reason of fractions. I love base 10...

    Ear muffs

    Looking for another set of ear muffs. I currently have a set of walker slim line with the mic in the muff which I think is a dB of 23. I usually double up at the range, indoor and outdoor. I do not require Bluetooth. I notice a lot of wind still, same as my older walker hunter version I have...

    Truck broken into

    Sorry to see this. Sucks. . Nobody wants those fuckin’ stupid mirrors. Lol. This owner opted to get the V8 supercharged version, may be the last of the real hunting vehicles. I cannot say I want to crawl around in the hills with twin turbos.

    Hunting & Fishing 308 win with 178gr eld-x elk kill today. Not impressed

    I cannot say I like eld-x better than say accubond or sst or even my hunter elites with all my rifles but the 6.5cm shoots eld-x and has dropped the deer. I have no complaints. It busted up but so did my sst. Accubond may have held together a touch better but not enough to force the rifle to...

    Rifle Scopes Opinions for new glass for new 22 250...

    I use a razor 5-20 on my 6.5 cm hunting. Works fine. Turrets are a touch tall so jumping out of the pickup you have to be away of that. I also use Zeiss victory line scopes. Those are SFP and are in MOA so are a PIMA but they work and work well.

    I have always said that credit cards are how they will "back door" you.

    Oh crap, my Black Friday this year was off the scale. With mfg hurting for business I gave them some. I am probably a marked man now. Damnit.

    .224 Valkyrie

    Shot some more yesterday. Ran with some benchmark finally but started having issues with my Labrador so I didn’t get much info just brass readings. Running bartlin 22” with 88’s. About the only powder I found that shot half moa was 748 with CCI 450’s. Yesterday I ran a ladder with 748 and...

    Want a Grendel upper for some long range use, barrel length question mostly

    I went with a 20” proof barrel and Maxim bolt and have had no issues. We have noticed a timing issue with the Grendel and shorter barrels when starting to push speed out of them. Once we settled on 20” barrels our problems started going away. Grendel forum is pretty good info

    Maybe in this case he is funded by Federal ammo to say this to make us buy more ammo? Lol

    .224 Valkyrie

    Was going to but it seemed like it may be a bit slow. I had other powders to try that was faster. Would like to hear from someone who did, I like benchmark.
