    6.5x47 Lapua

    Glad its not showing higher than 69Kpsi. RL17 may be worth a look too but man the accuracy is there with varget. Now to find more of it.

    Suppressors Barrel length for hunting rifle - can I go too short?

    140 Berger VLD has worked great on elk, deer and bear out of 18” barrels. About all I’ll use.

    Suppressors Thunderbeast brake attach suppressor ever get stuck

    Never shoot without my UL7 CB attach suppressor not screwed on so can't comment on poi shift. Shot this group the other day though using a relatively light 6.5 lapua. Love my UL7 with CB attachment.

    6.5x47 Lapua

    That would be great. I'm hitting lands at 2.75 oal with the 135 Berger. Using CCi 450 primers. Would love any info you could share. Thank you

    6.5x47 Lapua

    Looks like 2700 FPS is about tops for 19” barrel with the 135 in my rig. 37.7 grains of Varget. Testing for groups next.

    6.5x47 Lapua

    Looking to find a load with highest velocity I can get from 19" barrel and 135 Berger Classic. Trying IMR4451 and VARGET first. Any other powders you would consider?

    6.5x47 Lapua

    I have been using a candle to anneal my brass. Seems to work. Just shot 36.5 grains of varget with 140 vld on the lands. Shot great. I’d go higher with the 130 I think. Although 37 seems to be quite good for you.

    DeLane Development Group Rimfire Ventures

    Just read an ad for a Remington 581 that shoots crap ammo into 1/4" groups at 50 yards. So not sure what the big deal is about these vudoos? Disclaimer, my Rem 581 will not shoot 1/4" groups at 50 yards.

    6.5 Creedmoor

    135 Grain berger ammo in my Hawk Hill #2 6.5 creedmoor at 22" shot 2750 fps and held .5 moa to 500 the day I shot it. Very easy to like that ammo.

    Rifle Scopes Scope base bedding ques.

    I bed rails and use Seekins rings. Works for me.

    Rifle Scopes Scope base bedding ques.

    Jason, Okay, no worries with action stress. Action is very stiff. So if the rail does show daylight, as I have seen on some Remington 700s. As you pointed out, just screw the rail down till it bends to match the receiver. In that situation, with the rail flexed to fit the receiver, do you then...

    Rifle Scopes Scope base bedding ques.

    Cranking down screws tight till there is no gap can induce stresses on the action. For me, that is the whole reason to bed one. Stressfree mount.

    Suppressors Ordered an Ultra 9, any reason for me to also order a 7?

    I'd do the 7 also, but would go 30 cal.

    Suppressors PSA - On Cleaning Rifle Silencers - With Cutaways at 12,800rds

    I read that to mean they became less effective. Seems to make sense as they lose volume to fouling. That is a lot of bolt gun shooting to get to that point at my current practice rate.
