    Stainless steel tumbling - still dirty primer pockets

    30 cases in 1 load with 5 pounds of media in a Thumler? you're wasting time and electricity, IMO. I can do 75 .300 Win Mags in mine or well over 100 .308s. I use hot water, Dawn, and a 9mm case full of Lemishine, and let it run for 4 hours. No carbon left anywhere in the case or the primer...

    How many shooters do actually use wind meters regularly?

    You don't need it unless you plan on making first round hits. <rolleyes>

    Alpha Industries WAIT TIME

    I guess I better order more. I built one of my guns around the Type 2, and if I run out or can't get any more it's fooked.

    300 Win Mag barrel length, what am I losing at 24"? Did I blow it?

    That's interesting. I just ruined some brand new Win brass with 71.5 of RL22 under a 208. The primer pockets are so loose there is no tactile resistance when decapping or reseating a new primer. I could almost press them in with my thumb.

    Right. So is the anticipated street price still $1850, because none of the sites that have it listed are under 2300.

    Surgeon Build or TRG-42?

    TRG in .300 if you can find one. My 42 is a laser with 208s, I've had it out to a mile. I'm seriously contemplating selling some stuff to fund a .308.

    No offense taken, on rereading what I wrote I could see where you could think that. Interestingly, on looking at last month's results, mine was the high numerical score for the entire match, inclusive of the sling shooters. If you convert as XTR proposes above, it's by quite a margin. Sent...

    F-open 1k score Denys, I won last month, so I'm not feeling very bad about anything. With regard to recoil- I noticed yesterday that when I drop an 8, it's somewhere in rounds 12-18. I assume that has something to do with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Perfect, that is exactly what I wanted to know, and confirms what I thought but didn't know for sure. I have shot as high as 195-9x with this rifle, but that was only once. I'm going to finish this season with this gun, then go back to FTR so I'm not buying barrels every six months. Thank...

    Yeah...That's not what I meant. I meant, how does that stack up with other shooters using field guns and not dedicated match rifles? I've been beaten in Ftr shooting my 24" 1:12 .308 firing magazine length rounds by a guy shooting a 30" 1:10 firing 208s off of one of those two-foot-wide...

    I shot a 1000x3 yesterday with my TRG-42 .300 off a Harris, and scored 185-1x, 185-2x, and 185-2x. Considering this rifle is NOT set up for F-class, what say the experts here? Decent?

    300 Winmag Tactical Rifle Build?

    Sorry, wiseass. I meant F-Open, but I have shot FTR for the last three years, so it just rolled off the keyboard.
