    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Be prepared to wait a long time...ordered mine last July, was told in January it was finished, received a message from Tom in February saying he had it in his hands, since then...nothing - no update, no tracking number, no stock...I'm at the point where I'm going to get my money back.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex hd razor gen 2 or amg

    x2, I got behind both scopes prior to going with the AMG and I find the eyebox to be one of the easier ones out there to get behind, so much so that I couldn't justify the additional weight and slightly higher mag range of the Gen II. I've got one of my two AMGs mounted on an MPA chassis and I...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Hi Tom, Are you able to confirm if my stock has left the US for Australia? The Australian importer cant give me a straight answer at the moment.

    Nosler 130 RDF

    Agree with this comment. I've got the 105s working but only after weight sorting and they seem happy with a 60 thou jump.

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42x56 PRS scope

    Do March have an official release date for this scope?

    6bra bullet choices

    I've had excellent results with Berger 105gr VLDs and 108BT - that is an exceptional bullet in this calibre.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner M7Xi 4-28x56

    That's a good looking scope for sure - hopefully it performs as good as it looks.

    6XC brass issues

    I'm running Alpha brass through a chamber cut for the original 6XC with no issues - just need to be mindful of the headspace after firing, so a headspace gauge may be of some assistance with your re-sizing. I'm also running Norma 6XC and find the Alpha brass superior.

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Yes, to an extent. The shooting market here is vastly different to what you have available at your doorstep. We can get good gear (as far as bolt action rifles are concerned). For items such as Manners stocks, MPA, Cadex - anything high end, we don't typically have these types of items on...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    No update on my left hand PRS1TK in artic camo - was supposed to have left Manners last month and should be in Australia this month but I haven't got an update from the Australian importer who apparently haven't heard anything from Manners.

    Got my new J. Allen Chassis

    They tend to run on the heavy side - I've only handled one but it was damn comfortable to get behind.

    280 ai

    Good to hear that is taking you in the right direction regarding accuracy. Its certainly not always about speed with the heavy bullets but I reckon seating depth will be the thing that really tightens up your groups now. A change of primers may also help. I only use Federal Gold Match if I can't...

    280 ai

    Personally I think you have missed your accuracy node - F-class shooters running 7SAUMs tend to run 180s, Bergers or otherwise around the 2940-2950 mark, I'd back the load off to that node. I run 180s in my 280AI at 2820 with excellent accuracy out to 800 metres. I run RL23 with CCI magnum...

    The GAP Butthurt thread (formerly 6mm GT)

    The case specs suggest it will be accurate but I suspect the trade-off will be barrel life looking at how close it is to the 6x47. Factory brass and dies will be handy though and could see it take off given the work involved in forming Dasher brass but it's not offering a lot of horsepower above...

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42x56 PRS scope

    I know there is a Christmas tree reticle but haven't got a picture handy. Interesting to see how this scope will be received since March cop a bashing on here regarding the finicky eyebox. I imagine Shiraz will be wanting to put one in Frank's hands as soon as possible for a no BS review. If...

    Nosler rdf

    Nah, they don't get close to Berger hybrids nor VLDs. I've got 1000 of them sitting at home, sorted one 500 count box and ended up with 7 different weight sorted batches - lowest batch coming in at 104.50gr and the heaviest at 105.20gr - Way too much variation for a "competition bullet" and I...

    6mm Bra fireforming

    29.5gr of RL15 or 30gr of Varget will do the job perfectly.

    Nosler RDF 130 grain for 6.5 Creedmoor

    The weight variation is what I can't stand about this bullet, and the design looks good, but bugger me they don't group anywhere near as well as bergers and Lapua in 6mm form. I batch weighed a 500 count box and ended up with 7 piles with the heaviest batch coming in at 105.20gr and the lightest...
