    300 Norma Mag

    Take a piece of your new brass and see if it will chamber in your rifle. If it does (and it should), measure it and record the length with your comparator. Load it and fire it, remeasure with your comparator. The difference between the two will be how much your brass is stretching to fill your...

    I have found every time I switched from Hornady to berger all load development problems went away

    Christensen Modern Precision Rifle

    I know they had problems at first but from what I have seen in the past couple years they seem to have things locked down. I worked up loads in two ridgelines and both shot under half moa.

    300 Norma Mag

    There seems to be a big range in the specs on the NM chamber. I have a Christensen Arms MPR in 300NM on order, I can get lapua brass and I had planed to get the redding fl bushing die so hopefully that combo works out ok. Christensen says they use a match reamer. I don't like the brass...

    300 Norma Mag

    The headspace on the Peterson unfired is only .006 less than the lapua so the guys that are seeing ,020+ growth in headspace on there Peterson brass must have max spec chambers. gnatmm, the virgin lapua brass is matched up perfect to your chamber. What are the major diameter measurements on the...

    300 Norma Mag

    That's some good info. You don't happen to know how lapua brass is coming in for length measured at the shoulder?

    300 Norma Mag

    I have read through this thread and I didn't notice any loads using IMR 8133. Has anyone tried this powder in the norma mag? The burn rate is about the same as n570 and it is supposed to be temp stable and clean burning. It should be a good match for bullets in the 215 to 230 range.

    Christensen Modern Precision Rifle

    If anyone is shooting a MPR in 300 norma mag I would sure like details. I am facing a pretty long wait to get one and I am wondering how these rifles are shooting in the norma mag with the 8 twist.

    I am trying to decide on what powder to try first in a 338 lapua AI. Looking for input on what guys have had the best luck with or worst luck with in there 338 lapua's or LAI's shooting 300 grainers. I got a good deal on some US869. I also have retumbo and H1000. I just received an email that...

    I talked to them on the phone 6 months ago and they said 4oz, but like I said there shank was 1" longer than needed. They said there were going to look at not adding that inch and they may have shaved a little more steel off the blank before it gets wrapped. From talking to Chris at frozen...

    Yikes, not good. Sounds like a bit of story telling is going on. My fingers are crossed that he comes though with a good product.

    When I was looking into it a proof barrel from special purpose rifle, in 338 it was going to weigh 4oz less than a factory desert tech 338 barrel. They have 1" more shank than needed on there proof contour so there could be a little more weight saved there. 1" of shank would maybe weigh 3-4oz I...

    I ordered a barrel from Chris that was supposed to be done in 2-3 months. I have been waiting over 6 months now. He said he has the blank but is having trouble getting the resin he needs. Starting to wonder if I will ever get it.

    Anyone tried the dt bore guide? On my conventional bolt guns I use a tipton bore guide. I was also wondering if you can use the dt bore guide without removing the barrel from the chassis?

    Thank you orkan, what a well done article! Orkan have you ever came across any that you couldn't remove all the creep from even with alteration to the safety and had to replace the trigger?

    Anyone have the link to orkan's trigger guide? I tried searching it but can't seem to track it down.
