    Twist Rate - 300 Norma

    For those of you that have experience with a 300 Norma Magnum what twist rates are you running and what bullets? I’m really wanting to use the 245 Berger’s or the 250 A-Tips. Barrel length will be somewhere around 27-28” finished and was thinking of a twist rate of 1-7.5” to 1-8.5”. Berger’s...

    300 Norma Magnum

    Found some good load data from Vihtavuori’s website for 300 Norma Magnum but obviously can’t find any N565 or N570 powder due to ammogeddon. I have plenty of H1000 and IMR 7977 but can’t find any “reliable” load data. Anyone have any good start loads for these powders? Or have any reliable...

    .30-06 load data??

    Due to Ammogeddon 2020 this is what I have available. IMR 4451, CCI large rifle primers, and Barnes 168 grain TTSX bullets. I have not been able to find any published load data for this bullet/powder combination. I am fairly new to reloading so I’m not completely willing to follow my research...

    300 Norma

    Thinking about building a 300 Norma. Was just curious if anyone else has had one custom built and what bottom metal and magazines work best. I currently have a Mausingfield that I was going to re-barrel so the magazines would need to be center feed. Any help or experience would be appreciated...

    Can anyone out there help me please? I am trying to find a spanner wrench to remove the jam nut/lock nut on the free float tube for my AR. I have looked on Brownells and Midway USA and all they seem to have is either a multi tool or a spanner wrench for the buffer tube. I know the one for the...

    Rifle Scopes ATACR or NXS

    Hey guys, I'm looking at getting a new Nightforce for my long range rifle. I am looking at the ATACR or the NXS. I have seen 56mm scopes before and they always appear very big and bulky. If anyone has pictures that they could post of these scopes mounted on your rifles so I could do a size...

    Gunsmithing Bedding question

    I am getting ready to tackle my first bedding job on a project rifle that I have. It is a Remington LA and I am putting it into a new Bell and Carlson stock. I have watched a few videos on you tube and all of the ones that I have watched take a dremmel tool to the stock and grind out almost a...

    Suppressors Thunder Beast questions??

    O.K. so I have decided that the TBAC suppressor is going to be my first suppressor purchase. It will be going on a 300wm and am very curious of the recoil management that it will provide. I am looking at something that will provide the recoil management of an APA fat bastard. Would the 30P-1 or...

    Melonite or Cerakote??

    I am getting ready to have my first custom rifle built. I have everything decided except for the finish. The finish is going to be on the entire barreled action, and I have narrowed it down to either melonite or cerakote. I have done several searches on here and there is plenty to read about...

    Rifle Scopes Help on scope choice

    So I am new to the forum and pretty sure this has been covered a thousand times. But I am asking for opinions on two different scopes please. I am getting ready to do my first custom build and am trying to choose the glass for it. I have only owned Leupold up until this point. I have several...

    Gunsmithing 300 WM build

    O.K. so I am new to the Hide and I have a build question. I am finally going to venture out and have a custom rifle built. I have decided on the Stiller Tactical 300 action (300 Win Mag) and am going to mate that to a Shillen match barrel with a Precision Armament M11 muzzle brake, and maybe...
