    Range Report Whats your velocity for 175smks?

    Re: Whats your velocity for 175smks? Before I switched to Varget and the Berger 185 LRBT, I was getting right at 2700 with 43grs. of RL15 Lapua Brass and the 175 SMK's in a tight bore custom 26" .308. Be careful with RL15 in hot temps. That's one of the reasons I switched to Varget.

    Range Report Vertical Stringing - Help me to understand?

    Re: Vertical Stringing - Help me to understand? I've worked with OBT and the accuracy nodes are either too fast (hot load) or much too slow (velocity) in my .308.

    Range Report Vertical Stringing - Help me to understand?

    First time out the other day with my new rifle build. It's a 28" 10 twist .308 shooting Berger 185 LRBT. I was shooting at 300 yards over a chrono from the bench once I established a 100 yard zero. I shot 5 rounds of 5 different loadings increasing in charge weight by .3 grains. Two loads...

    F T/R Competition What scope do you use for 600-1000 yard F T/R?

    Re: What scope do you use for 600-1000 yard F T/R? I have a 12-42x56 NXS and a March 10-60x52 Tactical. I really like my NF, but I'll take the March over it any day. I stay dialed up to 42 on the NF and 40-45x with the March most of the time. I like mirage. It is my friend. I can see...

    Re: Experiment : CCI #200 vs CCI BR2 The BR-2 primers are good, but I like the Federal 210M primers better. I use Varget powder.

    RCBS Charge Master

    Re: RCBS Charge Master +/- .1 grain may be fine at 100 yards with the Chargemaster, but it's not cutting it at 1000 yards.

    Fps difference by +~ .1 grains varget

    Re: Fps difference by +~ .1 grains varget Be careful with that load. You are very close to max pressure. I suggest you start working down towards 43.0 grs.

    Rifle Scopes What actually makes rings "good".

    Re: What actually makes rings "good". Except for the Burris Sig rings (which will slip on you), all rings need to be lapped. Nightforce and Seekins are my choice. Badger comes in after these.

    QuickLoad and Optimum Barrel Time?

    I'm just now working up loads for a new rifle build. Have any of you folks used OBT effectively? Does it matter that much? I have a 28" barrel and the OBT for Node 5 is 1.431ms and for Node 4 1.279ms. I use Varget and the Berger 185 LRBT. QL shows 1.431 gives me a slow load, and 1.279 is way...
