    300 win mag and 225 eld-m

    I'm running the 225gr ELD-M with H1000, WLR, and Norma brass. 3.616" coal is a .010" jam into the rifling. 26" factory Remington barrel. I used Hodgdon h1000 data w/ the 230gr Berger to start, max is listed as 76gr. my first ladder test from 69-76gr was nothing particularly spectacular. Some...

    Timing muzzle brake....peel washer vs crush washer vs locking nut, which is best?

    My go to is the precision armament accu-washer kit. Shims come "numbered" and it only takes one, vs stacking multiple. Just a personal preference thing. I doubt you'd have any problem with the thin shims

    7mm-08 vs 6.5mm for hunting

    My dad hunts with a browning a or x bolt in 7mm-08. Nightforce SHV on top. IMO it's whatever tickles your fancy. The 7mm-08 will get 6.5creed (or slightly better) performance with more energy, but it's not like it's some huge step up from any of the good 6.5s. biggest advantage IMO is making...

    What's your favorite caliber for hunting?

    For the small white tail, and sika deer around here 5.56 77gr tmk in the boiler room is good out to 250-300 yards. also built a 300wm for deer from across a field (6-800 yards+) and I'm looking to add a 6.5c to cover the in between.

    ELD-X & ELD-M

    +1 I'm working with the 225gr ELD-M in 300wm right now, and I'd love to know how well they'll work on longer range deer hunting, instead of having to find some of the 212gr X stuff.

    Armageddon Gear M2010 Soft Rifle Case For Half Price

    I have the mat, backpack strap etc. version and I'm wondering if these are on sale because they're rejects of some sort? I've got a few areas where stitching has already come undone, or doesn't look like it was done at all. Is this anyone else's experience? I've only taken it out of the box and...

    Suppressors One for the think-tank

    As previously suggested, look at a heavier buffer (then a stiffer spring if you're so inclined. The brass marks are from the increased pressure coming back from the suppressor. While adjustable gas blocks slow down the the carrier speed, and thus cut down on the gas to the face/hard ejection...

    Rifle Scopes Is a Tangent Theta really that much better than a S&B?

    +1, Mike and Richard are great guys, they've put up with all my questions and bothering them. as to the locking turrets, not a big deal with the TT IMO. The windage is rotation limited, so you cant get lost on that, and the 2nd rev indicator on the elevation is very obvious.

    6.5creedmoor or 300wmg?

    I've looked hard at the 6.5 (.260rem actually) vs the 300wm vs bigger, and quite honestly I've come to the conclusion that you ideally need both. The 300wm gives you more down range energy, with the penalty being recoil and weight. i personally chose to do the 300wm first, because I wanted to...

    Long gun cases?

    I just saw that the Armageddon gear case looks so similar, and heard they make the MSR cases, so I'm gonna guess that it's just a typo in the description. Worth the risk for 50% off anyways, and if it doesn't work for me brownells has that great return policy. Case ordered, thanks for the heads up!

    Long gun cases?

    That's a really good looking case, but it says it'll fit inside of a pelican 1720, if so I don't think the ID will be long enough, unless the rifle is meant to be stored folded?

    Long gun cases?

    Do you mind posting a pic of it? I'd like to squeeze a data book, some ammo, and a few mags in the pelican, so I was thinking the triad bag inside of a foamless 1750, then I can use the soft case just to the range, etc. but use the hard case elsewhere. I have a hot wire table I could cut the...

    Long gun cases?

    Can you tell me if the 52" case will fit in the pelican 1750 or storm im3300?

    Long gun cases?

    What cases do y'all use, specifically for the longer bolt guns, like full chassis 24"+ barrels? i have a Remington 700 300wm, in an AICS 2.0 stock, and I need a case for it, what are my hard and soft options?

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    Just got my TT525 Friday, it has absolutely blown me away. I don't even worry about numbers on the parallax it's so quick and easy. I didn't know TT had MTC turrets, I definitely would've ordered them :/. Still an outstanding scope.

    Rifle Scopes Center dot vs cross type reticle?

    Good points. I almost bought the Minox 5-25 because of the MR4. Maybe they'll have reticle swaps at some point.

    Rifle Scopes Center dot vs cross type reticle?

    So the general consensus seems to be that it's a good setup. Unfortunately the other features of the TT are gonna draw me to it, but a center dot is definitely on the list for the AR10.
