    300 BLK Load Data

    Re: 300 BLK Load Data Hey John, I got the upper about 5 years ago, I believe they were selling them to people with their form 1 paperwork. I think I do remember them being advertised on the site. I never at any time modified the gas block, I only modified the barrel by opening the gas port to...

    300 BLK Load Data

    Re: 300 BLK Load Data I have a Model 1 Sales 10.5" SBR in .300/221, and using 220gr SMKs, I found that 8gr & up to 8.8gr of AA#9 would cycle my AR, AND be subsonic. I researched extensively on Quarterbore's Forums, but that site is down now. A major factor in cycling these 10" AR's is gas...

    Member Link Up All Oregonians check in !

    Re: All Oregonians check in ! Hey Highliner, thanks for the call. I'm a little jealous of that DTA you got coming. I put you in my contacts, and when you get a rig capable of 1k shooting, call me. I never go shooting without my Kestrel, chrono, & ballistic software, and will have you bangin'...

    help!!! i want a 338

    Re: help!!! i want a 338 Two big selling points for me are the Accutrigger & the fact that quality drop-in barrels are available for the Savage. Aside from the weak one piece EGW mount & screws, I find the rifle to be an incredible value, and would buy it with a quickness, if it were...

    help!!! i want a 338

    Re: help!!! i want a 338 I broke down & bought my Savage 110FCP-HS.338 last month for $1200.00. I spent almost a year researching this rifle/caliber, and for the longest time, couldn't justify spending the that kind of money on ammo components. I decided last December to go custom Rem 700 in...

    Results with 300gr 338 Accubond

    Re: Results with 300gr 338 Accubond I agree that the Accubond is, at first glance, an excellent choice for a 300gr hunting bullet for .338 LM. But, after picking up mostly intact, expanded, bullet core & jacket fragments from the dirt at 1K, many still bonded together, I would not hesitate to...

    2000MR in a 5.56 gas gun for 55gr FMJ?

    Re: 2000MR in a 5.56 gas gun for 55gr FMJ? There may not be any data for that load combo, because 2000mr is too slow for that bullet weight,IMHO.

    Gunsmithing Sanding a B&C Stock

    I got a Bell & Carlson Medalist stock and I am thinking about removing some fiberglass in the foregrip area. The stock is just too bulky and I would like to modify it to handle more like a McMillan A3. I have already Sanded out the barrel channel to accommodate the heavy barrel, and want to hear...

    Bad Propellant?

    Re: Bad Propellant? All other rounds fired. The yellow granules were indeed propellant that had changed color.

    Bad Propellant?

    I had a primer fail to detonate last time out. The load was a 168 Amax over 43.5gr H4895, CCI BR primer. I pulled the round, and saw that the H4895 had formed into small chunks, and some of the chunks had granules that were yellow. The ammo is 3-5 years old, stored in my garage in plastic cases...

    .338 lapua barrel life?

    Re: .338 lapua barrel life? What about setting the chamber back by re-chambering? How much barrel length would you have to sacrifice to get to good steel?

    m80 accuracy

    Re: m80 accuracy I tried many load combos with Hornady 150gr FMJs, and they sucked in every way. Bought them bulk from Midway. I'm Stuck with 3k of them, so I use them for supersonic spray ammo out of the .300 Whisper SBR. I was looking for a good & cheap projo for the AR10 carbine, the...

    Rifle Scopes Lepold VX-3 vs....

    My next build is coming together, .300WM. This rig will be capable of 1800yds supersonic, I plan on hanging the steel at 1500. So far, my best scopes have been Leupold vx3s 6.5-20x40, with M1 turrets installed. These have been more than adequate for me at 1k. forgive my ignorance, but what more...

    Rifle Scopes What does a $1k plus scope get me over $300 NIKON

    Re: What does a $1k plus scope get me over $300 NIKON I have the 4.5x14 Buckmaster, it sits on a RRA NM AR15. I can watch the dirt splash around clays that I seldom miss at 500yds. I have more expensive scopes with less clarity. I would say that the Buckmaster lacks durability and possibly...

    Wyatt's Outdoors Det Magazine vs Badger Ordinance

    Re: Wyatt's Outdoors Det Magazine vs Badger Ordinance Man, I am looking real hard at the Wyatt's with a 5rd mag. I really like that I can seat the .300WM out to 3.7" with the Wyatt. I went to the Seekins site, and could only find .338 Lapua mags, but they allowed seating out to 3.9". Does...

    .338 LM vs .308

    Re: .338 LM vs .308 Hey Mareshow, I would look into .300 Winchester Magnum. It's a good step up from your 30-06, and not too spendy to handload. I have a standard MOA hunting load that is supersonic to 1300 yards, and the new Berger 230gr bullet pushed to 2850fps, can reach 1750 yards before...

    Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR

    Re: Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR Look around, there is a thread here somewhere that shows that it's as good as Varget. I still need to test in extreme heat, but I'm stoked for this powder 'cuz it's pushin' the 190 SMK's to 2700fps out of my 26" Rock .308. No pressure signs.

    Savage LA Mag Box Length

    I have a .300WM Rock Creek 1/10 twist 30" 5r on the way, and am trying to decide if I'm going to re-barrel my Savage 112bvss, or just start over with a Rem700 action. I want to take full advantage of the long barrel and the Berger 230gr OTM's, and am wondering if the short OAL that the Savage...
