    Rainier Ultramatch MOD2 Barrel Testing - 6.5cm, 224V, 223 Wylde, 300 BLK

    J W, Sorry I can't be much help with your hand guard question. I used a new Aero Precision Enhanced M4E1 M-Loc hand guard. It is actually pretty large, & has plenty of room for that gas block. Good Luck with your choices!!!!! Idaho-5R

    H322 with heavy .223?

    Well, others here & on other websites sing the praises of IMR8208xbr with heavier 223 bullets. I'm working on loading for a new Rainier Ultra Match 1-7.5 twist 223 Wylde barrel on a new AR upper. I have several hundred 77 SMK's, & 77 Nosler CC's. For powders I have Varget, 8208, H335, H322, W748...

    6x47 forming from new brass help

    BJames, Well, I've been thinking about this since this thread was started.... I guess I have a bit of hard time thinking the brass is the issue. Of course it is possible, but, I've always felt Lapua makes pretty consistent brass. I wish the OP could try a Body die on a few pieces of his brass to...

    6x47 forming from new brass help

    BJames, Yes, I normally have used Imperial Sizing wax in my necking down, & other operations too. But, my buddy told me about using the One Shot, & wasn't quite as much cleanup of cases afterwards... I'm guessing either either will work just fine! Idaho-5R

    Hunting & Fishing Y’all talk me out of a 22-250

    I, too like the 22-250, & have one of the Remington 700 VS's. The biggest problem I see, & others have said, is the normal factory twist rates. 1-14, & a few 1-12...... That's fine for those screaming 40-55 grain bullets, But, I feel something closer to a 1-8 twist would be much better with...

    6x47 forming from new brass help

    Ok, As previously stated, I use the 2 step method. First a quick trip through the Redding 6x47L Body Die. Then, finish them off with a final trip through a Forster FL Sizing die. Originally, I tried the FL sizer only & had problems with crushed cases. After looking around I found some folks over...

    NorthWesterner, I'm not sure about the neck bushing die, as I've not used one. I'm fairly sure some others will chime in here with more advice......

    6x47 forming from new brass help

    I have been forming 6x47L cases from 6.5 for a while now. Some say this isn't needed, but, I ended up buying a Redding 6x47L Body Die, & run my virgin cases through it first. Then I follow-up with the Forster FL sizing die. Since I started this, I've not had one messed up case! The Body die...
