    trg mag conversion

    I never had an issue. Only thing I did was file a small bevel on the front mag plate so the cases do not snag. But I do that with AW mags as well, so... It would be cool if AW mags fitted, but I don't think they are long enough and they are double-stack.

    6mmCreed vs 6xc vs 6x47 vs 6 Crusader

    My apple is better than your's... sheesh. The best 6mm is the one you have. It's a moot point between the cases you're debating here, each has a pro or con vs the others. 6x47 Lapua - need to set the 6.5mm neck back -/+ a little less capacity, but more pressure allowed + small primer, tough...

    6mmCreed vs 6xc vs 6x47 vs 6 Crusader

    Those are collector items now, even worth more now they're out of business.

    6mmCreed vs 6xc vs 6x47 vs 6 Crusader

    This topic has been beaten to death soo many times over already, it would make a zombie croak. They all shoot well, none of them are better than the other. Pick one that is easiest for you to buy/maken and don't look back.

    What kind of precision do you expect from various rifles?

    A TRG22 can do 1/3moa from a bipod. We run a 100m prone competition here bipod, no rear support other than shoulder/hand) and the top 5-10 shoot 1/2moa or better, winners doe 1/3moa. Custom rigs like BAT using 6PPC, 6BR etc. Had a surgeon action with krieger that did the same 1/3moa groups...

    Full Bull (1.25 dia.) barrel Muzzle break options

    I think he's two barrels further along by now :)

    Which case? 105 Hybrid at 3K out of a 22"ish barrel. 6x47L, 6XC, 6Creed, 6SLR...

    Any of the cases listed will do that. The 6x47 is not hard to get shooting under 1/3 moa, as with any cartridge; just use good components.

    Why not a 338LM case?

    Accuracy, me or the rifle?

    How in the heck do you test precision of your rifle/ammo if you only do one shot? WTF? That only hints at potential accuracy (where you hit it) if it's not just a flyer that ended up in the right place by accident, that's not anything resembling precision (hit the same pot every time). If...

    AW/AE/AICS mag diffrences

    Just for info... AW magazine with Lapua 6x47 and 105 hybrids seated long (2.78"). BTW, I can get 11 rounds in the AW magazines and still enough space to press them down for the bolt.

    Barrel Life Expectancy

    Zulu: The 308 is an efficient case, but you can make a calculation if a 308 or a 6.5CM will be more or less expensive. Less powder and cheaper bullets can mean paying back the extra barrel sometimes. Yet you will have to work up loads an extra time. In the end you have to decide if the extra...

    Barrel Life Expectancy

    Not really, unless you seriously trashing you barrel with your cleaning technique. I clean after 50-100 rounds, barrels keep their accuracy instead of getting worse because your not cleaning. Copper builds up with fast calibers, and tons of carbon and powder fouling with large cartridges. My...

    More Barrel Life with 6.5 Creedmore vs .260???

    Everywhere you look on the net, it's always "heard" or "he said" when you read stories about the turbulence point in the neck. I think the guy that posed that first question also mentioned it was a question he had, not a claim of something being true. The story got it's own life after that...

    More Barrel Life with 6.5 Creedmore vs .260???

    The 260 has more case volume, so any room the bullet takes still means it has the same, or more case capacity than the cm. The issue with the 260 is that on long bullets you need to push them beyond the neck-shoulder junction which can give erratic neck tensions. If barrellife is an issue, best...

    Primer pocket uniforming

    I've never seen that a uniformed case had any effect on accuracy. It's nice to clean up the pocket and have them all seat the same (feel it going in), but other than that there is no accuracy aspect. Going too deep means you are weakening the web a bit. Try the sinclair tool, they go the exact...
