    OAL for 22-250 with Hornady 50 grain V-max

    Re: OAL for 22-250 with Hornady 50 grain V-max I am wondering the same thing.. I measured my chamber on my 1 in 12 R700 and I got 2.002 to my lands. But trying to seat a 40gr VMAX in it doesn't let the brass hold the bullet much.. I am interested in hearing what the more experienced loaders...

    Reloading Kits

    Re: Reloading Kits Personally, I am an RCBS RockChucker guy and have opted to by most of my other parts individually. I use Redding Competition dies for example. RCBS would be a great setup to look at though for starters. As for 175gr..you don't need the heavier bullets. The lighter 168gr...

    Question about trimming new brass

    Re: Question about trimming new brass In my opinion...just load it up and shoot. We are tactical shooters and those .00Xs don't matter as much as they would for a bench shooter. If you want to trim, go ahead, but I don't think you will see any extremely different results (if any at all). You...

    DIY case annealing machine - FUN!

    Re: DIY case annealing machine - FUN! Jim; What cases would this nifty little machine work for? Or would it be a 'universal' type thing? When you do come up with a final price, I would be interested in hearing it as I may start annealing now! My regards, Cameron

    Re: Ridgeway, PA 1000yd That's a hell of a drive from Pittsburgh! I am starting to look into 1000 yard ranges and competitions that are open to newer shooters. I have yet to go that distance!

    Hunting & Fishing What can you tell me about 7mm Rem Mag?

    Re: What can you tell me about 7mm Rem Mag? I am a huge fan of the VX-III 4.5-14x50 LR. I have it on my deer rig and it is everything I need plus some.

    Hunting & Fishing What can you tell me about 7mm Rem Mag?

    Re: What can you tell me about 7mm Rem Mag? If it puts it into perspective, I picked up an M700 ADL 7mmRM (1974) for close to $400. I picked it up because I seem to be addicted to M700s and because I didn't have a 7mm. The recoil sucks if shooting a lot, but nothing to wince at with one shot...

    Long action with a SA cartridge

    Re: Long action with a SA cartridge My Uncle uses an old school Savage that he bought from factory chambered in .22-250 that is based on a long action. I'm sure that if any altering needs to be done that it can be done at a minimal expenses/altering.

    Varmint gun for $700 or less?

    Re: Varmint gun for $700 or less? I say give the CZ 527 a go! The Kevlar is a great feeling rifle and shoots very well to boot! If you are interested, there is one locally for sale in .223. I could possibly get you guys hooked up if you want to pursue that idea!

    Cz help

    Re: Cz help I say get a 452 while you still can. I loved my Varmint HM2 before I sold her to get an American HM2.. Now I own four Americans, one in each caliber. I absolutely love the feel and finish of the Czech beauties. If you can't get a 452, I say go with the 453. If you don't want to...

    WTB my father an R700

    Re: WTB my father an R700 Since you seem very adamant about the M700 (which I understand! I own 5!) I would suggest looking at one of the special series that Remington has done over the years. The M700 CDL SF is one heck of a nice rifle and a blast to shoot. I see that currently Remington is...

    Re: Sendero SF2 or XCR TAC? I have an SFII in my safe in 7mmRM and I absolutely love it! I am saving up for another US Optics for her.. Damn sport is expensive ;-) I love the 7mm and it does everything I need it to do. I am a huge fan of the 7mm.
