    Model 1 sales 7.62x39 upper

    A good friend of mine at work is looking for a upper for plinking and just general fun range use. The upper in question is an A3 carbine 16" complete with BCG and charge handle. The price is right around $500. The ammo is cheap and that's the reason for this caliber as he doesn't reload. What...

    6 Creedmoor

    I have been working on a project acquiring parts to build a 6mm Bolt gun. I have a HS Precision stock, CDI bottom metal, Savage action trued and timed and a Benchmark 6mm blank to be finished at 26". I was originally thinking of having it chambered for 6mm Super LR ( Robert Whitely's creation )...

    260 load question

    I'm in the process of loading up some Nosler 140CC bullets. Hogden shows a range of 39 to 42 with H4350. Yet a 142MK at 41.5 to 44.5. OAL the same. Unfortunatelly Hogden only shows a partition bullet. When I go to Noslers site it just shows a spitzer in that weight and no H4350 powder. Anyway I...

    260 rem

    I am about to start loading some rounds for my Savage 260. So far I have new brass, H4350 and H4831 powder and CCI 200 primers. Seems like quite a few guys prefer the BR2 or Federal 210 primers for their loads. Has anyone compared the benchrest primers to standard primers? Not sure if I should...

    Sav or Rem action to build

    It seems the general concensus would say stick with Rem to build from. As far as taking a Rem action that's been trued and lapped and taking a Sav action that's been trued and timed what are the differences. I believe both are about the same diameter. Is one more rigid than the other? Is the...

    AR10 loading

    I load now for my M1A, 41.5 IMR 4895. I realize there are only certain loads you need to use for the correct port psi in this platform. Is this only true for the M1A or does it also apply to the AR10?

    Gas port length on a 18.5 308 barrel

    I'm going to order a barrel for an AR10 and am wondering what the difference would be from a midlength or rifle gas port. I see them sold as each before, any advantages or disadvantages?

    Muzzle brake for a 308

    I just bought a receiver set and am now in the phase of collecting the rest of the parts. I've decided on a 20" 308 Barrel. In the mean time I am in the market for a brake. I'm not real concerned with noise as much as keeping the rifle on targer. Some have suggested a SJC Titan. From the you...

    Muzzle brakes and accuracy

    How would a muzzle brake affect your groups? I had a new barrel and brake installed on my Savage. Due to communication issues the brake was not installed when I got the rifle back. I shot some tight groups before sending it back for the brake to be installed. Once I got it back with the brake I...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron target dot reticle

    I'm thinking of getting a 6x24 50 SIII for my 260. I'm worried the target dot might be a little big on a target bullseye. Any one have one of these that can give me an opinion? Thanks much..

    260 Rem powder

    I will be loading for my 260 bolt gun in about a month. For now I'll be stocking up on components so I can hit the ground running when it shows up. It seems as though H4350 is the powder of choice, any others that are known to be good as well. Thanks for any input.

    Hornady case prep center

    Any of you guy's have one of these? I'm thinking of getting one but wanted some feedback first. Do you have to use the Hornady pilots and shell holders or will my RCBS ones work? Thanks and hope you all had a merry Christmas.

    Stiller or Surgeon

    I've been thinking of buying either a Stiller Tac 30 or maybe a RSR. Both are about the same price and I haven't heard anything real bad about either. What are the pros and cons of these 2 for those that own them? It will end up as a 260 more than likely.

    Measuring OAL with the Hornady LNL chamber tool

    I just purchased this to check distance to the lands. I used to do this the old fashion way but thought I'd give this tool a try. I bought the curved one so I could do auto's as well as my bolts. I must say it works real good except when I go to measure the case. You can't get the cartridge to...

    Question for M1A loaders

    What brass o you guy's use? I've read up on reloading for these for quite some time now and figure what the hell, I load for all my other rifles might as well do this one too. From what I've read LC is the suggested brass as it's harder brass than others. Most the once fired stuff I come across...

    Hornady LNL

    Does the press come with a shell plate and the primer tubes for lg and sm primers. What about the ptx insert. I see it has the powder measure and linkage. Starting to think about upgrading my Lee 4 hole turret for handgun.

    I'm about to pull the trigger on a Brux pre fit Savage barrel. The rifle is a stock model 10 fcp. After I recieve my barrel I was going to get one of SSS recoil lugs and have the stock pilliar bedded with a skim scote too. I can have this work done localy. Would I see any further benefit of...

    Non mag primers in a 223

    I am in the process of loading for my 223 Savage bolt. I have been loading for rofles and handguns for a couple of years now, just not 223 yet. The powders I am going to use are BL-C(2) H335 and H4895. ( saving my Varget and RL15 for my 308) I have CCI 400 primers and see that the 2 ball powders...
