    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    I saw that, but I’m wondering if they are taking seating depth into account. Their 77grain data states 23.2 max. An 80eldm seating to AR depth (2.260”) would be compressed as hell. I’m seating closer to 2.500” and still jumping. That is a good idea to seat a little deeper, I have plenty of...

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    While you’re right, I did not have access to a range for a period of time. I went ahead and loaded the rounds in evenings thinking it would only be a 20fps difference. I went back to my notes and was getting same speeds with older Federal 205m as BR4 when doing initial load development on this...

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    Has anyone else noticed a significant difference in velocity when using different primers? I’m seeing 60-80 fps increase in velocity when using Federal 205M vs CCI BR4 or 450. My current .223 load shoots very accurately and consistently but now worried I may be pushing pressures. 23.4 grains...

    Bolt in..... bolt out...

    Also if you have multiple of the same action, don't clean them at same time. Had a guy in my squad show up with a .223 bolt on a 6.5 barrel.

    Rifle Scopes THOUGHTS ON LEUPOLD MARK 5HD 3.6-18X44 M5C3 FFP ILLUM PR1-MIL RETICLE

    I have the 5-25 MK5 and the 4-16 ATACR so not apples to apples here. I find the FOV on the MK5 a little on the narrow side. Not sure if that is the case with the 3.6-18.

    Anyone have experience with March's new FML-TR1H hunting reticle?

    Any possibility to send current 3-24x42s in for new reticle? I know they will have to go to Japan.

    Defiance Ruckus vs Lone Peak Fuzion Vs Impact 737R

    I chose Impact for logistic reasons. At the the time, there were far more impact prefit barrels floating around than others. I’ve picked up several barrels from PX at discount, most of which brand new. My friends all use Impact and at times we’ve traded or borrowed barrels from one another. An...

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    I’ll give that a try. 29.0 is below book gas gun max so I’ll bump it up. Goal is to keep it in med 2700s.

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    Took my handloads to 1000 yesterday and was pretty disappointed. I developed the load of 29.0 lever evolution under 105 hybrid back in May. Gave me 2740fps with single digit SDs in 80 degree weather. That same load in mid 30s temperature yesterday dropped to 2630 with SDs in the 30fps range...

    Rifle Scopes Your thoughts on this reticle

    I'm not a fan of the aiming dots at the 1 mil lines. I AM a fan of omitting the .2 mil hashes closest to the center dot. I like the very center to be free of clutter and this one is excellent for that. If I need a .2 mil hold its usually close to left or right edge of target.
