    Aero Precision Help Needed

    I wish aero offered a small parts pack to buy. It's nice to have ejector/extractor spares in hand.

    Aero precision shipping times

    I'm not gonna bother to look, cause it's not that important to me, but is their fde action just cerakoted or is it a dlc/pvd finish? If it's cerakote I'd just get a regular action and get it cerakoted when it's barreled. Their cs response/comms is crappy, didn't say otherwise, and looks like...

    Aero precision shipping times

    For the guys waiting or complaining about 1+mo wait, why did you order directly from aero. Plenty of places have these parts and receivers in stock, places like nss, midway, PA, PVA, and PSA. I'm assuming you ordered directly from aero cause of a great sale or price, if so, sometimes great...

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    Ive got solid numbers, real world not cherry picked or QL, the barrel lengths are not same as op but same difference. All the barrels are bart 8tw, all loads are with lapua or adg brass with 140eldm(i have 3400+ of these so use them in my prc). 26" 6.5creed is running 2845 with rl16 and...

    Criterion or Shilen barrel for 7mm PRC

    Good yo know, I haven't had a savage in 10yrs so I'm a bit out of the loop.

    Criterion or Shilen barrel for 7mm PRC

    Yep dirty d is correct on criterion, they won't do magnums on small shank. Shilen will, or did, as I had a 6.5prc shilen select match on a deadline action. Not any case dia or pressure difference between 6.5 or 7 prc. Fun fact, all savage factory magnums, except 338lm and some of the...

    REM 700 243 rechamber

    True, sort of. A 243ai max headspace is right at minimum 243win, or 243 go gage acts as a no go for 243ai. Easy enough to work around as a reloader, seat bullet in 243 long to jam rifling, then set up 243ai sizer to just bump back .001. While you are technically correct, I would wager that...

    Is factory hornady 7 PRC ammo still slow?

    I bought some horn 180eldm ammo from a member here, along with his 7prc that he just had built. Not sure on the ammo date of manufacturer, assuming he bought it after may. I cannot say how long it sit on a shelf before he bought it, though. It chronos 2870fps out of a 26" pva barrel. My...

    Criterion or Shilen barrel for 7mm PRC

    Small or large nut is determined by action, specifically barrel tenon size. If new barrel is going on this action, keep same size "nut". Ive had both shilen select match and criterion. Both shot good to great and cleaned up nice. I would go with whichever one is available in contour/tw/cal...

    Tikka actions

    Sure, a compromise is just that, a compromise. OP really didn't set much parameters of performance, just long range lightweight hunting target rifle and budget. Impact or origin with a proof carbon in a hunt26 stock would do all that easy, except budget. Without parameters, we're just tossing...

    Badger Ordnance M2013 project

    On my 2, 1 is nitrided action and bolt and pretty sure it's had a coil clipped on fp spring. The other is cerakoted, with the og 308 bolt cerakoted and the mag bolt i bought parked. Both those bolts have unmolested fp springs and are heavier than my other 2013. I put both of those factory...

    Sounds like a rifle that does everything....remember the old racing motto: fast, cheap, or quick service.....pick 2.

    Range Report 77 smk velocity seems low

    Well, not exactly. I've got 16lbs so I haven't been looking, only thing I use it in is a 223wylde bolt gun and that barrel isn't even on the action.

    Good thing you noticed, I didnt, but I also didn't resurrect this thread.

    Range Report 77 smk velocity seems low

    H4895 is a great powder for heavy 556 loads, fast and accurate. Ramshot tac was a powder used in mk262, it's solid, handles temp changes and throws good on progressive press and uniflows.

    Range Report 77 smk velocity seems low

    I use ramshots data, they list both 223 and 5.56 loads with 77smk.

    REM 700 243 rechamber

    243ai cleans it up nicely, his Smith has that reamer and he's got dies to load the parent case.
