    Inconsistency with seating depths

    Andrew before getting too crazy, try polishing the inside of the seater stem as I described. This will cure 90% of your problem.

    Inconsistency with seating depths

    Several things. First, inconsistencies in ogive construction. Your calipers and your die are likely using two different points on the bullet to measure from. First rule out your measuring device. Does it it consistently read the same thing each time on a the same round? Next look at the...

    Hunting & Fishing Mathews Creed XS

    Nice! It might not be your last but it will last you a while. Im still using a 2006 switchback, and still love it, still shoots just as awesome. Enjoy!

    Range Report 7mm Rem Mag 180gr VLD vs 180gr Hybrid Target

    Hmm. Let us know if you figure this out Rooster, I havent heard of anybody having these problems less than 3100fps like you have. I was going to ask if you are sure it was really a 1-8, maybe it is more like 1 in 7?? but id be surprised if krieger were off much. Maybe if Berger will get on the...

    Tuxedoed man shot at 2 for interrupting oral sex

    I agree. Interrupting is definitely wrong, judge will probably let them get away with it. Good thing he was armed, hard to run after them in that situation.

    Women's group tells Kroger to stop CCW/Open Carry

    Mark williams must be why women open carry at Krogers.

    Free bore and COAL

    This post is exactly right. I have a stock factory remington 5r that has lots of groups in the .2s and .3s with 175smks, and it is jumping well over a quarter of an inch! Dont worry about it, it will shoot. Berger hybrids will jump just fine as well.

    Women's group tells Kroger to stop CCW/Open Carry

    Done. Stuff like this is why I think open carry is counter productive, in addition to the fact it is less tactically sound for the one who carries. Do I think it should be legal to open carry, of course. Do I think it is smart or neighborly to do so everywhere? No I do not. Concealed carry is...

    Range Report 7mm Rem Mag 180gr VLD vs 180gr Hybrid Target

    Hmmm, these were about 3040, out of an 26in 8.5 twist bartlein. I wouldnt expect that at 3075, and haven't heard others having that problem, but with the 8 twist i guess you are putting some serious spin on them. Wonder if there is something unique about your barrel.

    Range Report Which Published Berger BCs Are From Predictions Rather than Measurements?

    Like I said before...when Courtney actually creates or produces something better, THEN we will take notice. It is much easier to tear down someone else's work than it is to produce a working solution to a real world problem, or to physically execute that solution. When I was at the Zoo (the AF...

    Sotloff beheaded, too.

    This right here. And not only did a homeowner find him, the whole neighborhood would have been better off if the homeowner had took care of the situation himself, since when DHS did show up they ripped over 200 full auto rounds at the 140lb weakling, in the middle of a crowded neighborhood, and...

    Load development with Magneto Speed chrono

    As has been mentioned in a couple other threads, the magnetospeed definitely affects the POI, almost always moving the impacts away from the bayonet (ie, if the bayo is mounted at 6 oclock on the barrel the impacts typically shift to 12 oclock. Regardless, the effect seems very repeatble and for...

    Long range labor of love comes to fruition: LRI 7mm-300WM

    A long throat 7 rm will get 3000-3050 with retumbo and 180 hybrids if you don't want to wildcat. Seems like you should be able to get 3150.

    Range Report Which Published Berger BCs Are From Predictions Rather than Measurements?

    Good. Then test those bullets, and write a book with good BCs in it like Bryan did and it will be well received. Oh by the way, in "my version of America" smart asses get their co authored papers shoved up their ass.

    LRF reliability, I've had bad luck

    Getting run over is one thing, it is a strong metal case. Drop it 4 ft onto a hard surface and I'm nit so sure things would turn out as well.

    Chainsaw brand??

    I've always had stihls but I don't think they are what they used to be. My ms280 plastic cover breaks, the fasteners get loose and one if them went in the impeller and broke some fins off that. The stupid plug type gas caps get out of kilter and don't want to go on. It will flood if it doesn't...

    Cosmic Perspective

    Looks like to me we live in a fairly unpopulated and remote part of the galaxy. I'd say we are all cosmic rednecks. Explains a lot.
