    Tumbling/ bending bullets has me stumped

    This ammo I purchased maybe 2 months ago. I got 2 boxes of 200, 2 different lot #. Did Hornady know they had a issue? This gun is shooting them around 3050fps.

    Tumbling/ bending bullets has me stumped

    I have a 6.5 PRC built on a Nucleus action with a Proof Research 8 twist barrel at 26 inches. I bought the action used off of here. The gun had 101 shots thru it when I got it. Now it is doing something that I haven't seen before. This gun shoots under 1/2" groups with the Hornady Match 147...

    Prime ammo now shipping to NY

    I believe I have the 1st box of Prime ammo shipped to NY. I needed to get some 6mm Creedmoor for a barrel that will be here in a couple days. I tried to order some from Prime but couldn't check out. So I looked at their shipping policies and it said they didnt ship to NY. So I sent them out a...

    That pistol with the shotgun shell in it is a airsoft gun. The primer looks like that because that is where you fill it with gas.

    HMR Barrel vs HMR Pro

    I have both in 6.5. I'm not sure about how long they will last but the Pro barrel is a better barrel on my 2 guns. The pro does not heat up nearly as fast, seems a little more accurate and likes more kinds of ammo. Also the action on the Pro is a lot better.

    Bergara B-14 HMR Accuracy Problems

    I have a HMR in 6.5 creedmoor. Mine loves the Hornady ELD match but hates the Hornady American Gunner. Go figure. I also have noticed that these barrels heat up very fast. Make sure you aren't getting the barrel too hot when shooting for your groups. Also I would check with Bergara and see what...

    Shooting glasses for shooting scoped rifles?

    I always wanted glasses without a frame at the top of the lense. That frame seemed to get in my way. So far the best I have found are the Smith Pivlock V2. They are about the same cost as Oakley but rated higher for safety. Also the replacement lenses are around $20.

    Hornady black Creedmoor velocity in 22 incher

    I got a HMR and the Hornady American Gunner and the Match ELD ammo shoot right about the same speed you are seeing. I also checked it in a Ruger RPR and the speed was about the same as the HMR. Only thing is my HMR doesn't like the American Gunner but loves the Match ammo.

    Kestrel 5700 AB vs. Sig 2400ABS

    Thanks guys. Looks like I will go with the 5700 with the link and just use my Swaro for now. Then down the road I can get the Sig or maybe the Leica.

    Kestrel 5700 AB vs. Sig 2400ABS

    I am looking to get one or the other. I currently have a Swaro Rangefinder that works well for me. I was wondering if I would be better off spending the little extra and get the Sig or if the Kestrel would work better for me? This would not be for hunting. Just range and I would like to get...

    Blaser Tactical 2

    The gun does have a unique look to it. But it is one of the most comfortable guys to get behind.

    Blaser Tactical 2

    I got one with 22-250 and 308 barrel. Extremely accurate gun. It will shoot with any of my custom builds. Just hard to find parts and mags for them now.

    How long can sized brass sit before loading?

    I did a quick unscientific test last night. I had a bunch of 6.5cm brass that I cleaned and sized about 6 months ago. I took 3 different pieces and did this to them. Piece 1, left untouched Piece 2, cleaned the neck. This was to see if there is some tarnish or oxidation causing more seating...
