    6.5x47

    Gentleman's...My first 6.5x47 will be done this weekend. Need some educated opinions on load data. The gun has a 29" Bartlein 1-8.5 twist. I have 123gr. Scenars to start with and Varget and H4831SC for powder. Just looking for some starting loads, I can work them up from there.

    Gunsmithing Bolt face erosion?

    I just got this rifle on a trade...6.5-284, Rem 700 LA. The Gentleman I got it from claimed 200-400 rounds. You may have noticed my thread about the gouged stock, this is the same deal. I took the gun apart to clean it and noticed how horrid this bolt face looks! The etching is fairly deep...
