    260 Remington Loads?

    Re: 260 Remington Loads? Whatever you go with work it up carefully. My LR-260 shows pressure signs anywhere near 2700 fps. I shoot 142 MK's at 2630-40 fps. My load is 40.2 grs of H4350 and it's easy on the brass as well as the gun.

    Mk12 Mod1 Range Report

    Re: Mk12 Mod1 Range Report I usually do load development in .3-.4 increments. Usually you will find one or two tighten up as you progress and you work with those further. I don't believe you'll see any difference in .1 gr. And if your looking for an accurate load, match primers=accuracy.

    Mk12 Mod1 Range Report

    Re: Mk12 Mod1 Range Report Birddog, when running SMK's, you'll never know your loads true best unless you lite it up with a match primer. Try some CCI BR4's. I bet a couple of those loads wil cluster up tight.

    Rifle Scopes identify optics

    I caught Larry Vicker's show Tactical Arms this weekend and it featured the M110 sniper rifle. They also showed Knight's .308 16" carbine. My question is can anyone identify the optics on the carbine?

    AR-10 in .300 WSM

    I saw one at a gun show this weekend made by SSK. It had a Krieger stainless barrel. It looked like a 26" barrel because the gas block was a good 3" past the free float tube. Has anyone here tried one?

    Opinions on Ruger SR-556 needed

    Re: Opinions on Ruger SR-556 needed The SR-556 is a good weapon. Accurate and reliable. I had problems with mine when I started making my own ball ammo for it but it turned out my full length sizer just was'nt getting the job done for my rifles chamber. It would fail to extract consistently...

    Re: DPMS LR 260 - Gas Block Question - Possible Leak? Same thing happened with my very first LR-308 but in my case it was'nt so much a leak it was the that the gas block had not been properly aligned with the barrel's gas port. I took it off cleaned it and set it back directly over the gas...

    Colt Accurized Rifle (CR6724)

    Re: Colt Accurized Rifle (CR6724) You will notice right off the bat it's a much better trigger. Mine 4 3/4 lbs and smooth but I changed both of 'em out with Jewel triggers. My boy will be hunting with one tomorrow. I changed out the Colt lower with a collapsible stock lower to better fit him...

    Colt Accurized Rifle (CR6724)

    Re: Colt Accurized Rifle (CR6724) Rgrwilcox, make sure you specify large pin for whatever aftermarket trigger you order. I have a Jewel on mine and like everybody else has been saying, both of mine are absolute shooters.

    making .260 lapua brass?? advise please

    Re: making .260 lapua brass?? advise please Necking down .308 (whatever) brass will leave you with a short .260 case, 2.015" case length for .308 versus 2.035" for .260. Is this something insignificant when doing so?

    Gunsmithing Polishing up an AR-15 Chamber

    Re: Polishing up an AR-15 Chamber No luck necessary Chad. What I need is more attention to detail and do a better job of inspecting my brass. I have been reloading it for quite awhile now and I can see how the extractor might fail on some of these case heads so I dumped all that old brass. I...

    Re: New Leupold Mk 4 M5 6.5-20 FFP 6.5-20X - $1699, 8.5-25X - $1899 on several websites. No illuminated reticle so it should'nt cost anywhere near the Nightforce. Extra magnification is nice. Mike when are these available?
