    Terminus Zeus 6gt Aw mag issue

    Recently bought an aw mag for my Zeus 6gt because I was having problems with my old mags. Can’t seem to get it to feed at all. Round pops up from the mag and the nose of the bullet keeps hitting the side of the chamber face and not going into the chamber. Any ideas on how to fix the mag to feed...

    Neck Tension Issue

    So I have been reloading 6gt for about 3 years. The first 2 years I was running Hornady brass with 105 Bergers. I would run them through my Rcbs fl sizer with the bushing and then what I believed to be a .241 mandrel. No issues. Recently built a new gun and switched to alpha ocd and Berger...

    Gen 3 Razor vs Mark 5

    Looking into upgrading from my sig tango 6. I love the scope and sig customer service has been great but I find myself seeing the need for .2 or .25 wind holds. I have a euro optic vortex cert so I could get the razor for 2250 after tax but I could also sell that and get the mark 5 for cheaper...

    Savage bolt stop broken

    Ran the bolt on my savage 12fv action today and the bolt came right off in my hand. Found this piece on the ground. Seems savage is shut down till the new year and I have a match on the 22nd so little time to waste. Anyone know where I could get this part and know how to fix it?

    6GT Brass question

    So I have been running 500 pieces of Hornady brass for 2 years now in my savage and have about 4 firings on the brass. I’m building a terminus but am keeping the savage to practice with so I would like to keep that brass for that gun. I have had zero issues with the Hornady brass so my question...

    Savage 110 ultralite 6.5 PRC

    2 part question: Anyone have a Savage 110 ultralite in 6.5 prc know if it’s a long or short action? If it is a short action, will it fit in my mpa competition chassis where it is bottom bolt release? Thanks in advance!

    Hunting Rifle for Wife

    Looking at getting my wife a hunting rifle for Maine whitetail and the occasional moose hunt when lucky enough to be drawn. I was thinking 6.5 prc would be better in case of a moose ticket but I do already have dies and brass for 6.5 creed. She just might have to shoot my 270 if she draws a...

    Tikka T1x Mag Realease issue

    I got a new tikka t1x last night and when adjusting the trigger the magazine release broke. I have the lever and the pin but can’t find the spring. Does anyone know the size of that spring? Or can take a picture of what the mag release is suppose to look like?

    Lot testing vs center x

    Just ordered up a t1x and obviously no ammo anywhere. Is it worth it to wait for backordered box’s of 50 of center x and sk everything to see what shoots and then most likely have to wait again for backordered whatever shoots best. Or just order up a bunch of center x and run it. Don’t really...

    Tikka t3 lite vs super lite

    My wife has decided to give hunting a try so I am in search of new rifle for her. Pretty decided on the tikka t3 platform in 6.5 creed but unsure about the light vs super lite. Looks like the super lite is a pound lighter and for an extra $300 I could get the threaded muzzle version, but then I...

    308 vs 6gt

    At this point I have been shooting prs for a year and have burned out a 6.5 creed barrel and swapped over to 6gt. I am wondering if it would be a better option to buy a 308 barreled action to put in my comp rig to train with or just keep training with my 6gt. 308 would give me more recoiled and...

    9mm first time loader

    So when I bought my 9mm 6 years ago I bought everything to reload for it but never really did. I did once and came up with the load 4.2gr of universal at 1.060 in length with hornady 124xtp’s. Ran a 5 shot group ladder today from 3.8-4.4 at 1.125 length from about 5yds and 3.8 was my best group...

    Waiting on Varget

    Put an order in at my lgs in January for varget and he has always been able to get me what I need. Since then I have seen varget available online only once at powder valley and it sold out in a day. I didn’t grab any because I already have some ordered through my local guy. Has anyone gone this...

    Buying bulk before load development

    Have a new Gt barrel on the way and was thinking about picking up 1000 105 Berger hybrids. That should get me through the year and if I want to change bullets I would have next winter to do load development. I am a little hesitant because I don’t even have the barrel yet and haven’t done load...

    Gunsmithing Savage Barrel Change Repeatability

    Currently have a savage 6.5 creedmoor and still working off the factory barrel. While I love the gun and the barrel shoots great it isn't threaded and it is still a factory barrel. I am only at about 1400 rounds down the pipe and definitely want to get full life out of the barrel but I am...

    which creedmoor asking for a friend

    I am helping my buddy spec out a build to get into prs and he doesn't reload, my first thought was 6.5 creedmoor but with the growing popularity of 6mm creedmoor should I be directing him that way? I know 6 creed is a barrel burner but would he have to worry about that so much with factory ammo...
