    **6 Creedmoor**

    I've walked into more than one match with loads or a barrel that wasn't what I would say the best and I damn sure don't think the rest of the group needs to shoot with the same jacked up setup as me. If you need a certain powder you can find it if you look hard enough. It may be a few bucks more...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    And DA can change the dope from day to day or even minute to minute even with the same velocity so that's also something that needs to be written down in your notes . it helps when you can feel a shift and adjust for it just like I will hold low in the afternoon when I would hold dead center in...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    I notice less change in velocity with H100v than I see with h4350. It's probably about 30fps difference going from 20* weather to 95+ weather with h4350 and around 15 fps with the h100v. I found it odd since the h100v is not in hodgens extreme powder lineup. The h100v also meters like water...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    Just an FYI the sunshade that comes with a march 5-40x56 fits the steiner as well as a premier scope. I know it's not going to help unless you have a march scope but they do fit. The outside diameter is a little larger than the steiner OD but still works fine. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    **6 Creedmoor**

    It's very close on the burn rate so it probably will work well. If you can find hybrid 100v (h100v) that works and is what I like to run but haven't been able to find it anymore so I'm back to h4350 for now. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    **6 Creedmoor**

    From the guys I know shooting the coated Dtacs they have not had any issues. I haven't spoken in depth about having to recoat the barrel after cleaning but do see where some are taking it or a finer grade and mixing with alcohol and after the barrel is clean they run a patch with the mixture on...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    New AO barreled action came in today so logically I went to do some load development in this hot ass weather. I'm now running bn coated 105gn hybrids and the highest load loaded was running around 3105fps with a 2fps ES over 3 rounds. Time to load some more up, I tested non coated and got about...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    When new I was seating the hybrids 20thou off the lands and coal was right at 2.7450, the last batch of bullets I made were seated at 2.7650 and 20tho off the lands. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    **6 Creedmoor**

    My throat moved forward about 20thou from new to toasted barrel. 2300 good shooting rounds, 2500 total befor it became a smooth bore barrel :-) Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Your suggestions for rifle for novice female shooter

    I'll add a few things that I've noticed from my wife. She's about 5' 7" 130lbs and isn't a weakling by any means but when she tries to shoot my match guns which are in heavy to me (13.5-15lbs) she has a hard time moving them around (precision rifle style shooting) and usually ends up sore the...

    Cut away view of my chamber on 6.5 Creedmoor 3000 rounds down the tube

    I plan on doing the same thing with a 6mm Creedmoor barrel I just burnt out after 2500 rounds in 4.5 months :-) 2300 of which shot great. I'm going to mill the length of the barrel since I was told that not only was the throat was gone but there were not any visible edges on the rifling either...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    They need more neck tension than the Hornady dies put on them. The force of slamming the bolt in a match caused me to stick a bullet on a stage when I accidentally racked a second one before moving to another position (had to have bolt back to move) mine are seated 20-22thou off the lands so it...

    Chassis VS DBM

    I like manners with the mini chassis, Mcree and the XLR carbon chassis. Some have somethings I like better about them than the other and some have things I dont like but all work equally well IMO. Its pretty much personal preference.

    **6 Creedmoor**

    Probably right. In all reality I'll just keep barrels lined up on a few different setups so I'm not stuck with one. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    **6 Creedmoor**

    Just got word back about my old 6mm Creedmoor barrel (brux) that I had planned on setting back in another action. The rifling is essentially gone :-/ so that barrel is toast. 2500 pretty hot rounds, 2200-2300 of which actually shot great. The last 180 were shot at the k&m match so of course it...

    6mm creedmoor + H100V + 105gr Berger Hybrids

    Does anyone know where the h100v is in Stock? My local place used to always have it on the shelves but I haven't seen it in a while. I may have to go back to h4350 which they get in enough to keep me stocked up. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Rifle Scopes Full day with the Vortex 4.5-27x - Initial Impressions

    The weight imo is just in the wrong spot but it won't keep me from trying one. Oz add up to pounds and while most of our guns are not light I don't want to lug around a 20lb rifle in a prs style match. With everything else you need to carry for some matches it gets stupid heavy. It's one reason...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 3-12x56 Military Issues

    Something doesn't sound right. I've only owned the 5-25x56 and the 4-16 models but when I compare them to my S&B, March, and friends hensoldt they are pretty close to optical quality and I nit pick optics to death. Basically I'm not 100% satisfied with any options out there and always find...

    Rifle Scopes NEED HELP, setting ZeroStop of STEINER Military 5-25 × 56 mm

    This is because the Instructions are not correct in the manual for the 5-25x56 turrets. Luckily I had done enough to know something wasn't right so a little fiddling and mine was set. As you mentioned read the instructions above. It's stupid easy once you understand it's stupid easy and don't...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    I thought about playing with a load with h1000 since the 6mm competition match is designed to use it (243 with different neck which is similar to the 243ai). I know it's slower burning but if you're only trying to push them around 3k-3050 ps I think it might work good. Sent from my SM-N900V...
