    6.5 Creedmoor

    I've had very good results out of 1x brass from a different chamber as well. I have not however had very very good results with virgin brass. Even though I've had good results with 1x brass, I'd still have more peace of mind after I've fired the brass at least 1x out of the chamber I will use it...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    I wouldn't sell it all. You've already spent 600 rounds of barrel life and time fireforming brass. You'd have to fireform all over again whatever brass you end up buying. At least me, I come up with a basic generic load, and then once I fireform brass, that's when I like to begin a more...

    Steiner T6Xi 2.5-15x50 (5116) on Remington 700 Police

    Fuck what the smith said, respectfully. If you like shooting that rifle, and you have and like that optic, mount it on there. It'll turn out to be a platform you're going to enjoy shooting altogether. I've had a minox on an $800 howa before. Now I have that same model scope but in the 3-18...

    PRS Talk 140 RDF in a dasher

    I saw one too but I don't remember where. It was on a YouTube video for a series that takes place here in TX. I did not see that one coming, a dasher in 6.5 cal.

    Do I need a small base die to save my brass? 6.5CM

    It seems like others are having issues when using old brass on a new barrel that was fireformed in the prior one. What could this be then?

    Mixing brass lots, same headstamp.

    I'm going to at the very least weigh them and see how close they are from lot to lot.

    Mixing brass lots, same headstamp.

    Hey all, I am curious, who mixes lots of brass with the same headstamp to load "match" or precision stuff with good success? My OCD tells me not to do it but I'm not even sure it's a big deal. I bought some 308 lapua brass off the hide at a good deal. What I didn't realize was that I would be...

    Black wavy marks on brass

    Thank you all who contributed. I no longer care for any replies that include how one way of tumbling is better than another. Everyone's way is always going to be the best is what I've gathered. My issue had resolved and I have learned from it!

    Black wavy marks on brass

    That's why I haven't considered wet tumbling. I get pretty good groups and chrono numbers dry tumbling that I haven't found myself thinking about wet tumbling.

    Black wavy marks on brass

    Yes it's 2025 and us savages are still dry tumbling. Did it make your groups open up? No right, didn't think so lol.

    2 heavy bolt lifts and dirty cases

    Yup, I was shooting suppressed. I primarily use 450s too. However this entire outing I wanted to try the RUAG. All three 5 shot charges with the SMK had single digit ES & SDs. My "control" group with 450s had higher numbers. I will continue testing more when I get the chance. Maybe spife will...

    Yup, I plan on reloading that brass... I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar to this?
