    6mm creedmoor short barrel

    I settled at a little over 2900 with 147s and N565 out of my 20" 6.5 PRC. I got 130s up to 3150 with N560, but was at pressure. Need to re-visit those at a lower node.

    Hunting & Fishing Let’s start a coyote thread.

    They have been hard on my daughters chickens. I have killed two, but they are harder to call. She sees them in the daytime, but that is the only time the chickens are out. May have to stake out one of her hens for bait.

    Hunting & Fishing Let’s start a coyote thread.

    The 87s work out past 500 for me. I finally got the new 80gr ELD-VT to group good enough with some H4350. I have them going 3345 out of an 18" 6 Creed. I kept trying Rl16 that I use for the 87s, but they would not group at all.

    223 Ackley Improved

    If I get their full length sizing die, shouldn't I be able to use my Hornady seating die?

    What is everyone using for a sizing die. I am looking to put an AI barrel on my Tikka Varmint.

    6mm creedmoor short barrel

    18" 1-7.5 twist, 3280 with 87gr V-max and Rl-16, just worked up a load for the 80gr ELD-VT with H4350 at 3345 fps. Will see how they do on coyotes soon. The 87s hammer them and I dropped a doe in her tracks with it during our anterless season last January.

    I had an early X-Ray and I added a longer ARCA rail, a spigot, and some 1/4" spacers for weight in place of length of pull spacer. Wish I had not gotten rid of it as it was very well balanced with a heavy 26" barrel.

    I have two 22 BR barrels. They feed great with the MDT Dasher/BR magazines. I also converted two of the MDT with the binder plate with kits for BR based rounds.

    I used Kroil for a week and mine came off with an inside wrench and a Viper vise. You could see how far it got down into the threads. I put the barreled action in a bench vise with the barrel pointed down and shot some kroil in it every morning for a week.

    Athlon Ares 2.5-15x Overkill for Hunting?

    I run two different Bushnell 4.5-18 (LRSH & LRSTi), a 3-15 Minox, and sometimes a 5-25 Minox on my hunting rifles. Never thought I had too much magnification. I always have my scope turned down to minimum magnification for any close shots I may have. I have shot several deer and coyotes past 350...

    Precision 6.5 CM - What would you change about my process?

    I have had great accuracy with the 140 ELDM out of a 260 and my 6.5 Creedmoor. I use Peterson SRP brass, Rl16, .002 neck tension, and .065 off the lands. Look up the Satterlee seating depth method. I use a bushing die and no mandrel, single digit SDs are pretty easy once you are consistent with...

    Precision 6.5 CM - What would you change about my process?

    Don't worry too much about load development until you get 100-200 rounds down your barrel, it will speed up. Measure the OD of the neck of a loaded round to see how much neck tension/ what size of bushing you need.

    I use the plastic MDT mags for my 223, but I file down the feed lips so the bolt doesn't drag on them.

    Yes, a Tikka CTR will work in a Bravo that uses AICS magazines if you use the AICS magazines.
