    PTG Bottom metal

    Does anyone have any personal experience with the PTG detachable magazine bottom metal? Does it work well with Alpha mags? Does it fit the Badger inlet well? I didn't find anything for PTG's in my search.

    Why QD over Machine Screws for the Regular Guy?

    Re: Why QD over Machine Screws for the Regular Guy? The few things I've read on this topic have said that QD mounts are more accurate when removed and replaced. Hopefully someone who knows a bit more will address that, because I'd like to know that as well.

    6XC Loads

    Re: 6XC Loads For my 105 Hybrid load I have settled on 40.7 grains of H4350 in Norma brass with 210M primers. Velocity is right at 3100 fps. Rifle is a 700 action with a 1:8 twist, 27" Bartlien barrel. In a 200 yard match I had the best group of 0.32 MOA for 5 shots. I was shooting prone...

    OCW vs Ladder...

    Re: OCW vs Ladder... For a lot of us I think that it comes down to what range we have available. Since I only have access to a 200 yard range, I use the OCW.

    Barrel going south?

    Re: Barrel going south? My steps so far. First I have swapped the scope out and used the opportunity to check all ring and base screws. Second, I have annealed my brass. They had been shot 7 times without it. Third, I am redoing the OCW with 1 gr less to 0.5 gr above my normal load...

    Barrel going south?

    Re: Barrel going south? My next trip will include my chronometer to check the velocity. Thanks for the tip. Could number of reloadings on the brass contribute?

    Barrel going south?

    Re: Barrel going south? Turbo54: southeast towards G'ville in Hampton Cove. Like most everyone else I am not "from" here. Been here since 1993 but always in Dixie. What you are suggesting is basically what I plan to do. First thing is to start with a new OCW test centered around my...

    Barrel going south?

    Re: Barrel going south? Thanks, this is the kind of info that I am looking for. 731 rounds sounded too few to me as well. But I was looking for something to try from all you guys with much more experience with this than I have. Any other suggestions?

    Barrel going south?

    Re: Barrel going south? They are moving at about 3050. One thing that I did try was finding the lands by using a dowel. I still have the marks on the dowel from when the rifle was new. I put inserted a bullet touching the lands and put the dowel in. The best that I could tell, it was the...

    Barrel going south?

    How do you tell if your barrel is burned out? My rifle is a 300 WSM and I have been shooting 175 SMK ahead of 65.4 grains of H4350. While I know that this cartridge burns up barrels fairly quickly, I have 731 rounds through it and it seems to be having trouble holding groups. I was able to...

    PMG Precision Rifle Class in AL

    Re: PMG Precision Rifle Class in AL Mine should be there as well. Went in the mail last Wednesday and it's not going that far. Like Jay Leno said about the USPS sponsoring the Olympics, "The world's fastes people being sponsored by the world's slowest people."

    wsm q's

    Re: wsm q's I believe that there are other threads that talk about 7mm/300 WSMs. So I believe that you can neck down 300 WSM. I am going to keep an eye on this as I'm planning to build a 7 WSM hunting rifle.
