    Re: Requesting recommendations for 7.62 Suppressor Another vote for 7.62SD. I run it on 308 and 6.8 and works great.

    Cutting barrel length

    Re: Cutting barrel length I went from a 26 inch running a 185gr berger at 2675 to a 20 inch running the same load at 2580. Accuracy is basically the same.

    Got Some Berger 338 300 grain bullets!!

    Re: Got Some Berger 338 300 grain bullets!! AI makes 2 lapua mags. The old mag is for the long action including the 300 win mag, etc. The CIP mag will load longer. However, in my experience you still have to seat the bullet very deep into the case to magazine feed. My best accuracy /...

    Hodgdon Superformance Powder now available.

    Re: Hodgdon Superformance Powder now available. And back to a powder question - I'm wondering with this being another double base powder, if it burns hot and would accelerate barrel wear? Anyone heard any info?

    Does a silencer QD hider affect accuracy?

    Re: Does a silencer QD hider affect accuracy? I have 6 aac suppressors. Some are thread on and some are quick detach. The accuracy of the guns with the suppressors is at least as good if not better with the can. I would highly recommend having a suppressor if you can swing it.

    Suppressors Shortest 7.62 can??

    Re: Shortest 7.62 can?? Good luck finding a can with no shift guaranteed without trying it. That depends on a lot of things related not only to the suppressor but to your rifle as well. ie. barrel harmonics, mount timing, etc

    school me on the .243

    Re: school me on the .243 264Charlie, That was an excellent post! A couple of things I would throw in. I'm running the 6mm super lr and easily getting 3200 with 105 vld's and 107's running VV N160. The advantage of this powder is that it burns much cooler reducing barrel wear. I've just...

    Any .308 Shooters with 20" Barrel Here?

    Re: Any .308 Shooters with 20" Barrel Here? I shoot berger 185's in my 20 and my 26 inch. Wind drift is much better than 155's or 175's.

    RCBS Chargemaster or Harnady Lock-N-Load?

    Re: RCBS Chargemaster or Harnady Lock-N-Load? Headgear, Call RCBS technical support and they will give you the codes to speed up your chargemaster. Mine literally runs 2x as fast after changing the points at which it changes from high, to slow, to trickle.

    Which 243 bullet for 1000 yards? DTAC, SMK, or?

    Re: Which 243 bullet for 1000 yards? DTAC, SMK, or? I second the 105 vld's. If you look at Bryan Litz G7 BC evaluations in his book, you'll see that the dtac doesn't have that much higher a BC than the 105 vld. However, because of the weight differential, the 105 can be pushed fast enough...

    Handloading with Dillon RL500B for 308?

    Re: Handloading with Dillon RL500B for 308? The difference between the article Terry points out is that all the competition shooters that I know using progressive presses for rifle loading weigh or throw their charges seperately and drop it into a funnel die. The dillon powder measure is not...

    Handloading with Dillon RL500B for 308?

    Re: Handloading with Dillon RL500B for 308? Do a search on the name John Whidden. He's a 3 time NRA long range champion. He loads everything he shoots on a modified dillon. If it's good enough for him, I guarantee it will be good enough for you. Check out the shellplates he makes for the...

    Do you ever stop searching?

    Re: Do you ever stop searching? Thanks Rob, The load is safe and was worked up during the summer when it was 90 degrees plus. Also, I'm using varget which helps some with temp variation.

    Do you ever stop searching?

    Re: Do you ever stop searching? Rob01, Curiousity question - I run 185 bergers in my 308. My hotter load runs 2675 and averages .4 for 5 shots. My lighter load runs 2600 and averages .25-.3 for 5 shots, however, the ES and SD of the hotter load is better and obviously, ballistics are...
