    6.5 Lapua 139 Scenar BC?

    I shoot .260 Rem and use the Lapua Scenar 139. Mr Litz had listed G7 at 0.301. My Model 12 LRP Savage 26 inch barrel found actual G7 BC of 0.291. I shoot out to 800 yards and at 600 regularly with the 0.291 G7 and StrelokPro is on the money at 600 yards and average 2815 fps MV. Using standard...

    Primer Recommendations

    I have been using Frankford Arsenal Platinum handtool. It is adjustable and is very consistent with what I consider to be good feedback on primer insertion. 50 - 100 primers no problem for the included tray. Would definitely hold more but just never have done more than 100...

    Sierra 155g TMK

    "At The Lands" yes but different application in your AR10 magazine situation for sure. Just basically saw 155 gr. Sierra TMK and responded without realizing totally different shooting application.

    Sierra 155g TMK

    Model 10 FCP HS Precision .308, 24 inch : 155 gr. Sierra TMK over H4895 in Lapua brass. Originally shot at 0.010 jump. After about 1000 rounds chased lands and found ATL to be the best in my rifle. I have about 2200 down barrel now.

    First Borescooe Purchase

    More than likely a normal bore guide would allow pass through. However I would want to help protect the camera end which includes the lamp from touching anything other than the Delrin bore guide which I think is about $20 if I remember correctly.

    First Borescooe Purchase

    I use Lyman borescope. Throat area, lands and any possible carbon ring would be very obvious. I have used it for about a year now and very satisfied for checking especially to verify cleaning method before/after. Based on your primary purpose I would recommend without hesitation. I do use...

    Gempro 250, RCBS Rangemaster 2000, or something else

    Same site as link above for ej-123 the fx-120i is 500 alone and then you could add the auto throw or trickler later. They also have the bundled deal. My ej-123 does not drift off zero once warmed and I load to the kernel if I want in my H4350 (260 Rem) and H4895 (.308 Win). I weigh using the...

    Gempro 250, RCBS Rangemaster 2000, or something else

    A&D EJ-123 reads to 0.02 grains, 0.001 grams, holds zero for days on end. It doesn't like your AC draft. Regularly listed for approximately 500 but the link takes to site from Canada for 300 American. Use mine with powder throw about 0.2 to 0.3 grains under and Dandy trickler. Not quite...

    .260 rem

    With my factory Savage 26" LRP I too thought 142 SMK would be the end all. Using H4350 (have not used Varget) I never could find any reasonable grouping with the 142 SMK at different nodes and bullet seating. I tried 140's and Berger Hybrid 140 all to the same results. A buddy suggested I try...

    Redding FL Bushing Die?

    Neck turning your brass is not necessary to use the Redding FL Type-S bushing die. I can chronograph single digit SD's without ever neck turning. I am not aware of the reloader who turns necks with factory chambers but my wingspan of shooting knowledge is local. Custom chambers with "close"...
