    Deciding between 25GT and 25x47

    I can't confirm on the aw mag specifically as I don't have an action currently that uses aw's but I can say all mags that had issues with 6gt now feed fine with the increased 25 cal bullets. Both metal and polymer mags. There where several that had issues with the 6mm. When greyops first...

    25GT Load Data.

    I have been using Hornady 4DOF and they have worked out to 700 which is a far as I have used the ELD, the Berger 135's have tracked will in both 4DOF and AB's custom drag model to 1050 yards.

    Deciding between 25GT and 25x47

    Having both 25GT and 25x47 the question you want to ask is how fast you want to go. The GT will easily run 135's into the mid 2700's (see my load data thread in reloading) so I'd say if you want to shoot a diet of 2750+ go 47L, if not go GT. The 25GT is my favorite of the two and my smith used...

    Vortex Razor Gen III 6-36 Opinions

    It would be good to hear from those wandering zero shooters in a few years to see what there experience has been after switching to another brand. I've heard the complaints too but it's not always a Vortex on the rifle. I'd bet conditions are playing more into it than they realize. My zero moves...

    6.5x47 Lapua

    It's a combination of both weight and length that dictate stability in a particular twist rate. But a simple rule of thumb would be most bullets upto the 147gr Hornady ELD should work fine in most situations. Berger has a good calculator that may be of assistance with their bullets found here...

    North Korean Troops fighting in Ukraine

    NK needs the experience and what better way... for everyone else, this should be troubling.

    6gt

    Depending on the characteristics of the barrel I've run 31.5 - 32.5 which has put me in the 2830 range from 26" barrels using 108 and 109 bergers and 110 A-tips.

    22 ARC. 5r or 6 groove

    Wait for sales, I wouldn't pay full price. My experience has been mixed. If you are doing something specialized where you need it to say shoot 6mm GT or 6mm CM with 105-110 grain bullets while running a suppressor, even with the 2"+ gas system you may have better luck calling them and speaking...

    22 ARC. 5r or 6 groove

    My preference has always been 5r when its available, will there be a meaningful difference... probably not. But the radiused land is supposed to be less damaging to the projectile.
