    Accessories SOLD Timney 510 Thin for Rem 700

    Timney 510 thin for Rem 700 with safety and bolt stop lever. I have it installed in a deer rifle I used this season that has a grand total of 22 rounds on. I turned it down from the factory setting to a 2.0 pound trigger pull. I’m only selling because I run a two stage in my AI, a Geissele two...

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    The bullets that wouldn’t enter the case stopped at the mouth. The boat tail wouldn’t even enter the neck. Coulda been a dinged neck from ejection. New FL die arrives today. Gonna stick with the floating carbide expander for the Redding dies.

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

    Rem 700 .308 Win 16.5” with a Leupold VX3i 2.5-8 is perfect for a WV woods rifle. Shots rarely extend beyond 200 yards unless you’re on a power line right-of-way or a long field. Typical shots are within bow range. I have killed 3 whitetails beyond 100 yards in my lifetime, and the furthest was...

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    In all fairness, I was running them quite hot. 140 Hybrid with 44.1 H4350 in Lapua with BR2 at 2.950”. I was getting average 2912 FPS in a 26” Bartlein and TBAC can. Both of those 100 rounds lots have seen that load. I’ve just decided to back down to the 42.5ish node for 2800 FPS.

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    @trophyhunter Fired is 0.469, sized is 0.468. Reamer was a standard SAAMI .260 Rem with 0.298 necks and 0.110 freebore. Die is a typical Redding type S full length. I don’t want a custom die as I’ll likely pull this barrel in another year or two. I can see where the die basically just kisses...

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    Measurements at the shoulder body junction on fired is 0.453 and sized is 0.449. To be fair, maybe 10-20% had the carbon make it past the shoulder body junction. Most had carbon stop 1/16” above the body shoulder junction. Almost like it was head spacing at the base of the neck and body shoulder...

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    It’s exactly an outside donut. I really like the bushing die as sizing is nearly effortless, and bullet seat like butter. Which die did you go to?

    What do you hope will be revealed at SHOT Show? Or 2020 in general.

    Nightforce 3-10 SHV with a mil based reticle. They have one with a MOA reticle. I don’t even mind 1/4 min turrets as they’re covered. Throw us mil guys a solid hunting scope.

    Bushing Die Creating False Shoulder Issues

    Last two range trips, I've had odd issues with my brass. Carbon is covering the shoulder and sometimes making it to the case head. Even getting ejector swipes with mild loads in the 42.0 to 43.0 grains H4350 range with 140 Hybrids. I measured multiple pieces of fired brass, and the headspace was...

    SOLD 6.5 Pills: Berger 144, Hornady 140 & 147

    I grabbed these to try in my 260, and I’m sticking to 140 Hybrids. Berger 144 Long Range Hybrid Target x75. Hornady 140 ELD-M x95. Hornady 147 ELD-M x83. Based on the percentage of bullets remaining and the lowest price I can find, that’s $94 worth of pills. I’d go $SOLD shipped USPS Priority...

    WTB MagnetoSpeed V3

    Looking to purchase a V3, so if you have one sitting on a shelf collecting dust, PM me. I’m fine with normal use, but don’t exactly want one that looks like it fell off the tailgate on the way home.

    New Berger 6.5mm 144gr LRHT

    0 and 140 are my 140 Hybrid load: 44.1 H4350 in Lapua with BR2 @ 2.950” and 2900 FPS. The 0 was because I pulled the barrel for cleaning and then reinstalled. 140 was a 3 shot group after all testing. 144 was a single round of each H4350 41.0 to 43.0. 42.0, 42.5, and 43.0 measured 0.268” CTC...

    Leupold RX-2800 trbw

    I was able to range this clear cut by hand with no tripod on a clear, sunny day. Pic quality isn't the greatest as I was holding an iPhone behind the rangefinder.

    New Berger 6.5mm 144gr LRHT

    I'm hoping to test some in a .260 later today. H4350 at 41.0 to 43.0 grains in Lapua brass at 0.030" off the lands. This bullet is VERY close to the 140 Hybrid just looking at them. Biggest difference is the pointed meplat. The 144s ogive is a touch forward. From reading on the 105 to 109 in the...

    Lapua .308 Win LRP Brass SOLD

    116 pieces of Lapua .308 Win large rifle primer brass. I had a Rem 700 barrel replaced, and the chamber is too tight for this brass just above the web. I can chamber and close the bolt, but it is just too stiff. You may need to hit them with a small base die, but they could work fine. I was...
