    Mark 4hd tracking issue

    So here’s the problem, new scope I mounted right before a PRS match and my dope seemed to be off at longer distances. After trying to figure out what I was doing wrong I decided to test the tracking. I shot a group at zero then 2 at 5mil and 2 at 10mil all @100yrds. Problem is with 5mil the...

    SOLD Bergara HMR 6.5 creedmore w/carbon barrel

    Clearing out space and since my nrl hunter build is wrapping up I don’t need this guy anymore. Bergara b14 6.5creedmore with carbon barrel. Has 3-400 rounds through it and shoots great. Only thing is it’s a 22” barrel so it’s right there on the boarder for nrl hunter power factor so I built a...

    Leupold spotting scope

    So I’m looking at the leupold mark 4 spotting scope and I’m seeing prices vary by $600+ by just the reticle. Am I missing other features or is the tremor reticle worth the extra cost? I’ve tried to find threads covering this but haven’t found any yet

    Pressure vs velocity

    I’m trying to save ammo material so I figured I would verify what I’m thinking with you guys. If I’m getting extra pressure from my suppressor and getting pressure signs trying to get to 2700fps on my hunting rifle. I was thinking about trying my muzzle break or my other suppressor to reduce the...

    Bergara bolt issues?

    So this is my issue, I’m randomly seeing pressure signs from my Bergara B14. It’s a new model with the fluted b14 bolt (not the premier). I was working up a load that was a little hot so I said screw it and went to a lower node. 143 eldx, 42.1 gr Staball 6.5, win LR primers and star line brass...

    6gt primer cratering?

    Ok guys need your advice. Just did a load work up on my 6gt and I’m getting a little primer cratering. The gold primer is Hornady factory ammo and the silver is cci450 I used for the reload. Both look very similar but I’m not wanting to wear out primer pockets early. Brass is Hornady. Load is...

    Load development 50 degrees

    So i recently picked up a 6gt and need to work up a load for it but it’s 50degrees. My question is (using h4350) can I do the work up and when I find a node just load some and warm them up before shooting to verify no pressure issues in warmer weather? I can wrap them in a heat pad to bring the...

    How bad is this idea?

    So after having a seekins hit and loving it I decided that I want a light weight switch barrel dedicated hunting rifle and this is what I’ve come up with but I’m curious in what ways do you see this going wrong before I run up to Altus and talk to them about making it happen. I originally...

    Altus range

    So trying to decide where to shoot today and wondering does anybody know if the Altus long range is open to the public or members only? I normally shoot at element which is 30 minutes closer to me than Altus but if I can get a day pass then to Altus I will go

    Annealed brass opinion

    Just tried my first batch of brass with my induction heater and looking for opinions. First off the brass hasn’t been cleaned so that’s why the neck is black but do you guys see anything that looks like I over annealed them? I attempted to stop the instant I saw glowing. I sacrificed a few...

    Barrel for first chambering

    I’ve been wanting to get into gunsmithing for a long time and we’ve finally decided to give it a shot. Gonna use a savage 10 action that I already have a plan on truing the receiver and chambering a barrel in 6mm Creedmoor (but less method). Looking for barrel recommendations. I plan on using...

    Older accustock questions

    I just recently pulled out a savage model 10 308 and was really surprised with how heavy it is. I’m curious if anyone knows what the weight of the original accustock is? I’m not a huge fan of the stock and trying to decide whether to go with a lighter and more comfortable one or just leave the...

    Need Aussie help

    I'm getting ready to move to Brisbane and need some help. I know parts of Australia are thick forest and some are open plains. Is there many places to shoot over a 1000 yds there? Not necessarily ranges just open plains even where I can stretch guns out.

    Gunsmithing 7mm rum to 300 mag

    I have a 7mm rum and I don't want it. I want a good ole 300 mag. Now my question is, how easy is the change going to be? I need a new barrel anyway so that's not an issue. From what I have researched the bolt face is the same. Am I correct? Is it a basic barrel and having the new chamber cut...

    Rifle Scopes Optics help

    I have a ss5-20 illuminated scope on my 308 and love it, now I need a scope for my ar50. I don't get to shoot it very often so I can't take the scope off the 308 for it. I really like the ss optics so I'm thinking about a fixed power scope for it. I want the highest power I can get with the...

    Rifle Scopes Ring question for the pros

    What if any difference does the material used make? Aluminum vs steel. I have researched material bases are made from and I think the base is very crucial. I noticed the better bases are made with stronger steel. Cheap stuff is all aluminum, tps and night force are cold rolled steel, and badger...
