    Bullet feeder for 6.5 creedmoor?

    If you are into 3d printing you can print one and for less than $100 in parts be up and running. My whole cost including the printer was less than $500 Canadian. It costs a couple of dollars to print a conversion to a different caliber. Here is the link to the thread on the Cast Boolits forum...

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    Add a zero to both income and housing prices and the relationship is the same. The difference in the 70’s was that most households had only 1 car, a tv with an antenna or maybe cable and a land line. Now everyone has 2 cars a boat and or SxS, a cell phone for each member of the family and even...

    But the average income in 1975 was $7,650 or about $150 a week before taxes.

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    You are forgetting that interest rates in the 70’s were between 7-13%. In 1981 it was 18% Back to the subject at hand. I have around 1500 Hornady .308 178 BTHP bullets that shoot horribly. The Aeromatch are going to be sold only in boxes of 500 or cases of 3,000. Will I take a chance that...

    Lapua finally trying to fix the dented neck problem

    The bigger disappointment for me is that the new boxes contain exactly 100 pieces of brass while the plastic boxes contained 101 pieces every single time. That additional piece was great if you need a sacrificial piece for annealer setup or if you have a brain fart and destroy a case somehow...

    Inconsistent POI.

    You can try loosening the action screws and while holding the rifle with the barrel pointing up tap the butt of the rifle on the ground then tighten the action screws with the rifle still in a vertical orientation.

    Inconsistent POI.

    Try different ammo as mentioned above. l took my competition rifle with me to Tennessee last summer and shot at Dead Zero Shooting Park. It was grouping sub 1/2 minute with my hand loads. I ran out of my hand loads and bought 2 boxes of FGMM and it was grouping between 1 -1.75 moa. Switched...

    Savage 110 Tactical Barrel chatter marks

    Yes all of mine feed, extract and eject. I will admit that ejection can be improved with a replacement spring but all of my rifles are 5-15 years old. The extractor and ejector upgrade kit is around $20 per rifle. I will probably do that this winter. I cannot compare the ejection with my...

    How to measure LOP?

    Do you own any guns with adjustable LOP? Also don't forget that LOP changes based on the position you're shooting from. Your LOP is different when shooting prone, sitting, standing. Also seasons and the amount of clothing worn in the winter will require a shorter LOP. I would get into your...

    Opinions on the new Savage Axis?

    I’m the Savage lover of the bunch here. Whenever I mention Savage everyone loses their minds on this forum. I have 8 Savage rifles all of them are Model 10, 110, or 12. It is not that I can’t afford custom or semi-custom rifles. I own a couple of them . It is that I don’t see the value in them...

    Rifle advice? 6.5CM stock/barrel

    For long range with no hunting I would go 26” instead of 24” and I would not be looking for a light weight chassis. I would be looking for a chassis that can hang as much weight as possible .

    1/2 - 20 threading

    1/2-20 is very common in europe. Both my CZ 457's (Canadian imports) have 1/2-20 threading but those are .22LR.
