    7SAW

    So I worked up some more loads for the 175 Bergers. Powders, StaBall6.5, RL 16, H-4350 StaBall was very disappointing, the best velocity I got was 2728 with a SD of 5 and ES of 16 after that pressures were erratic/dangerous RL 16 was much better! single digit SDs 45.9 grains ES 24, SD 9 and...

    What have been your experiences with ARC mags? , after talking to a few PRS shooters at my local range I'm contemplating other options, although they run Defiance and Surgeon receivers!

    I have a spare FNH TBM kit and wonder if it can be modified to work with ARC Mags?

    RobO1 do you have any information about the GEN III line of scopes?, magnification ranges and weights! I like my GEN II 3x18 but would like a 30 oz. version or lighter if possible. Thanks!

    Steel head, thanks for the advice. I think I have some 4451 , I'll check the loading tables and give it a try along with round two testing of the aforementioned powders .

    7mm SAW

    26" Bartlein marksman left twist gain twist 1n9 to1n8.25. I'm fine with the current speed but wonder if I can get a little more as long as the Alpha Brass will handle it, I plan on many re-loads . I have the SAW II chamber on this Rifle! I guess I'm really looking for the ideal powder for this...

    7mm SAW

    Simia Dei, have you done any further loading of the Berger 175 Elite Hunters? and if so what components / results have you found?. I'm testing three powders currently, RL 16/ H-4350 & StaBall 6.5. So far H 4350 seems the most consistent at 46.4 grains for 2744 fps. StaBall reached 2724 with...

    Ditto on the special orders my left twist gain twist took about 5 months but has been well worth the wait!

    7mm SAW

    Not that I could hear or feel, I have the SAW II chamber and at least for load development I settle each round by vibrating the powdered case with my vibratory brass cleaner before seating bullets. I could not hear any powder while shaking loaded rounds once I got above 45 grains. I'm sure the...

    Montana Rifle Model 1999

    To the OP, not a lot of love for Montana/Kimber/WIN M70/FNH receivers here as Barbie accessories are not as available as most lessor actions, JMHO!, R 700 costs less and has many more options as do the clones! but usually require additional work ( clones excluded depending on manufacture) RPR...

    Very nice!, what brand paints did you use?, I'm planning a sponge job on my McMillan probably shades of grey with a accent color for depth. Brownells Alumahide possibly. I've only got 30 rounds on my barrel so far, went to the range and rang steel, paper will be next!
