    Anybody Golf on here?

    Re: Anybody Golf on here? I just played Paa-Ko Ridge about 2 years ago. I agree it is a must play if you like golf, but bring plenty of extra balls with you. If you are having an off day it is pretty easy to burn through 3 or 4 balls.

    Press Queston

    Re: Press Queston No, I reload both .223 Rem and 308 Win on mine. As you will find out it does take some practice to make it perfect. Change over takes some finesse when going from pistol to rifle cartridges.

    OAL for 700 SPS 308

    Re: OAL for 700 SPS 308 AS you can see, the Remington rifles have ridiculously long throats. But they do tolerate jump very well. As has been said, if you do not want to load them singly you are restricted by the mag box length.

    Re: .308 175gr SMK loads at 2650fps Schneider 27" Varget and 4064 are great powders with the 175 SMK. Some of the "hotter" Varget loads are some of my most accurate.
