    Optics WTB: Sightron SIII 10-50x60

    $529.00 is a crazy low price. Cheapest I saw when searching just now was roughly $1,000.00. Can you shoot me a link where you see that price by chance? Reason I mention it is that I do have a Sightron SIII for sale. (#25006) It's the Sightron SS 6-24x50LR FFP/MOA with the MOA-2 reticle...

    Advanced Marksmanship Please school me on QUICK wind reading (match skillz)

    Man that's a lot of great info. Still trying to digest. Can this be done using .25 MOA as the multiplier as opposed to the 0.3 MOA? Say the 6mph wind moves my bullet .25 MOA @ 100 yd. Would my formula then be ".25 x Distance in Yards" ? (with a 6mph full value wind?)

    Where abouts in the forum can I find more info about the wind lesson that was discussed in this video?

    6.5 Creedmoor and RL16. Holy Crap!

    I have similar findings to the above post by 260284. I'm running H4350 w/ a 142gr Sierra Matchking. *Note: I was getting higher velocities in the Starline brass as opposed to the Hornady Brass. A more detailed comparison of Starline Small Rifle Primer Brass vs. Hornady Brass can be found...

    6.5 Creedmoor load development **update 3-22-18**

    I agree, but if this test was done at 100 yd. that vertical isn't due to velocity. That is more than likely an issue of not firing during the same respiratory pause, or another aspect of the fundamentals possibly.

    6.5 Creed, 4831sc / h4350, OCW and many questions

    Personally, I don't think it could hurt to develop one load for each powder. That way you aren't high and dry if the H4350 unicorn dust dries up.

    CLOSED - Free 7.62x54R Brass. Anyone interested?

    I've got some 7.62x54R brass from some PPU match ammo. I was going use them for some handloads, but sold the rifle. I hate to waste good brass. It's free for whoever wants it, just pay shipping and i'll mail it to you (or local pick-up in Houston, TX). It's a couple of zip-lock sandwich...

    Lowering my SD on handloads

    I agree w/ ZiaHunter. The Hornady brass requires some case prep. I was able to achieve lower SD's as a whole with Hornady brass for my 6.5 Creedmoor. (Data is posted below). I did the following: uniform/debur flash holes, cleaned primer pockets, bevel and chamfered neck after trimming to...

    6.5 Creedmoor - Help me find my load

    Thanks for the info! I shot them left to right, each lot at a time. Normally I would shoot 1 of each type, but since I had my IR thermometer, I could make sure the barrel temp stayed within 10 deg.

    6.5 Creedmoor - Help me find my load

    I have a 24" stock barrel on the Ruger Precision Rifle right now. Could be a pulled shot, I didn't call any fliers to be fair. The squares are Half Inch squares so they weren't terrible fliers I really want to choose #6, 42.0gr. because of the SD value of 1.4, but #5 prints to a different...

    New on the forums here. Hi Bang. I have the SP3R V3 rail on my RPR and it's Top Notch Good. The *handguard nut is a very secure design, followed up with 12 screws to keep the handguard in place. (yes 12 screws). MUCH better than the 2 that held the Samson on. The flat bottom of the Seekins is...
