I've shot it as far as 600 yards so no empirical drop data yet. They group well out of my 10 twist barrel...as good as the 300 OTMs. However, I was hoping for more velocity than I am getting. The same 92 grain charge of H1000 showed about 15 fps LESS velocity than the 300 OTMs and the 300...

Re: 30-06 Ackley info and opinions?
I just inheritted another one making it my second 30-06 AI. This one has got a 26" Lilja 10 twist. Using Lapua brass, we were able to get the 215 Berger Hybrid to 2920 fps with RL22. This load was hard on brass (Lapua)...as can be expected but there...
Re: 338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag)
I had CDI make a bottom metal for a savage long action that used CIP mags. Machined the back of the mag well to 3.800". Feeds perfectly and you can stretch the coal to about 3.750". Just a thought. Jeff can set you up.
Re: .338-378 Weatherby mag.
A buddy has one that likes 104 gr of Retumbo and Fed 215's with both 300 gr SMK's and Berger Hybrids. Right at 3000 fps with ES at about 10 fps.
His reamer was a "match" reamer with minimal free bore.
Re: who makes custom savage barrels
McGowen is making some killer barrels right now. Their turnaround time is very good too. They also have some popular Savage blanks on the shelf that just need to be chambered. Turnaround on those is about one week.
I've been very please with my barrels...

Re: Heavy Bullets in 22-250
I debated on this very subject about a year ago and got some great advice on 6mmbr. 1:9 twist sounded like the ticket up to 80 gr A-max bullets which reduced the likelihood of lighter bullet coming apart if used in the gun if I remember correctly what I read over...
Re: Manners T4 stock
Is that chassis system something you DON'T want to bed with Devcon or a similar agent? I really like how your gun turned out also.

Re: 7mm rem mag and 180 VLD?
I have never understood how people can get 3K out of a 7 RM. The best I have been able to do in three seperate guns is about 2900. Two with 26" barrel and one with a 27" barrel. Frustrates me because I'd love to push that bullet at that speed.
