    WTB Tikka ctr 6.5cm 24"

    Hey all, Currently there is a decent sale for a new ctr in the ~$1000 range after rebate. I was about to get one just for the heck of it. But then I thought, if someone has a used one for cheaper that wants to get rid of it, I may help them out. If you got something, let me know.

    These are what I always use and all my m70s have. They are way better than the factory slotted screws. https://www.newenglandcustomgun.com/proddetail.php?prod=N-70B I normally get them from brownella or midway but they seem to be out of stock there apparently.

    .308 Winchester

    I do have actual new bullets. I was just BSing around and decided to just throw together some loads. I also have good primers too lol. The pulled bergers were just too cheap to not buy haha. I also have 169smk, 155tmk, and some 174 eldvt I can play around with

    Very good catch. I went over my garmin and it appears the average was 2517. I accidentally wrote 2417. I will edit my previous post.

    Thanks. Been watching some of those vids as they get uploaded. Not new to reloading but new to loading 308.

    No, you cannot do what you and many others are wanting. This is one major complaint we all have. Unless there's an update I'm not aware of.

    .308 Winchester

    Loaded 308 for the very first time. Didn't really do a full on load development. Honestly, I just threw some random charges and ran with it just to see. I was really trying to find a load for my 6.5 which has been problematic for me. But the few 308 loads I did try, looked really good. Having...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    How do you know when it's time to give up on a component and try a new one? And how do you know which one is the culprit? Can't seem to figure out this creed. I used to be able to shoot low ESs and consistent groups. Now it's a different story. Top groups from my 308 are a different story...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    Well, I couldn't figure out the issue or find my distance to lands. I did however, through some random charge weights last night with some pulled 185 bergers I bought. Boy did she shoot great. This was the first time I loaded for this rifle and it did not disappoint. I first shot a group of...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    It's really hard to tell with the sharpie method. It appears as if one of the lugs may have had minimal contact. I used silver sharpie by the way, but again, it's very tough to tell. I want to assume the bolt body rotating on the extractor mechanism is where the drag/friction is happening...

    Interesting. It is indeed a custom barrel. However, i have swapped stripped bolts just to see if it was indeed the extractor cut. I am now trying the bolt from the rifle with the custom barrel on the rifle with the factory barrel, this one always free falls. This time, with the other bolt, it...

    Exactly, won't fall on an empty chamber. The one that does is such a smooth action in comparison and now i see it's because absolutely nothing drags or adds friction to it. As in the extractor claw?

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    One of my 3 FNs bolt will not fall freely when stripped of its firing pin assembly. There appears to be some friction or something that drags. I was going to use this method for finding distance to lands. Has anyone experienced this or know what it could be? Now I'm realizing that this one...

    VV powders & temp stability

    Ok, I'm no VV expert but I've always heard this one powder was the exception. In general though, the 500 series are double based and the 100 series are single based. Everything I've learned has always been double base are good for speed at the cost of some temp stability. Single base are more...

    VV powders & temp stability

    Have you all seen the new video VV put out? Supposedly their 500 series powders are more stable than their 100 series. I can't imagine that being true with the 500 being double base and the 100 single base. Perhaps things got lost in translation and nobody on their team was able to verify their...
