    300 grn Scenar Bullet Length

    I was wondering if anyone knew offhand what the bullet length is for the 300 grn Scenar. I'm trying to load this into my Kestrel. Thank you.

    H4350 & Velocity Spread

    Can anyone tell me an approximate value of how much a .1 of a grain will increase the velocity for H4350. I'm shooting 139 Scenars from a 24" barrel. I need to bump my velocity up about 40 fps. I've been unable to find any information on this. Thank you.

    Gunsmithing Stripped Allen Screw Head in McRee Stock

    I have stripped out the area where the allen wrench goes into the allen screw head on my McRee stock and was wondering if anybody had a quick fix for this. I tried a Torx bit but that didn't work. Should I sacrifice an allen wrench and use JB Weld? It is the front action screw on the stock...

    Gunsmithing Barrel Set Back Accuracy Change

    I recently had a barrel set back and had poor results on the range today. I had a great load for it and tried the same load today. The groups were typically three shots barely touching and then two off to the right about .5 MOA. This is the first time I've set a barrel back. When you set a...

    6.5 Amax Experiences

    I usually shoot 139 Lapuas but there was a pretty good wait so I ordered some 140 amax's. Didn't see much on the search button. Anybody here use them? Are they picky like the Berger's? Any info would be appreciated.

    Thank you SRT Supply.

    Finally stepped up to an Accuracy International. Ordered a AI AE MkII from Jonathan at SRT on Monday. It arrived last night and I love it. I'm tired of sending my guns off to get barrels replaced. Looking forward to doing it myself. Hopefully I'll break it in this weekend if all goes well...

    Gunsmithing Custom Pistol Grip

    Guys I'm interested in designing a pistol grip that will give me a more consistant 90 degree placement on the trigger. I have a McRee stock so changing the grip out won't be a problem. Should I use wood, epoxy, or some other compound? Any help would be appreciated.

    Rifle Scopes UKD range finding.

    I'm interested in ranging using my scope. I have a NF 3.5 X 15 with a NPR1 reticle. I have a good range and have verified my KD targets. My targets are 12" round plates and I'm using the formula: size of target x 95.5 divided by MOA. However when I try to use my scope, my distances are WAY...

    Kestral 4500

    I'm interested in purchasing a Kestral 4500. I looked on its specifications and the DA range seems limited. I think it said from -45 was the bottom range. Can't remember the upper range. The DA I was shooting Sat. was -1605. Is the DA range for the 4500 larger. Thank you.

    Range Report Hot Barrel-POI Change

    I was shooting Sat. and noticed a POI change on my targets. My first shots were good from 600 to 1000 but as I kept shooting I was having to dial more MOA to hit my targets. I felt the barrel and it was pretty hot. I don't very shoot fast. Is this a common effect, hot barrel lower impact...

    Case Volume & Velocity

    After reading all of the posts on the stainless steel media thread, I wondered how important it would be to have the inside of the cases cleaned as well. I've been tumbling with a vibrating tumbler and am on the 5th firing on my brass. The insides are not clean and my question is how much does...

    Competition Seater Dies

    AICS Stock

    I'm interested in puting an AICS stock on a Rem 700 short action. However the barrel on this rifle is a #8 straight taper. Is the barrel channel on the AICS stock wide enough for this barrel? Does the stock come with internal lug screws or do you use the same screws that are with the rifle...
