    Suggestions for starter Chassis bolt action rifle in 6.5?

    Tikka tactical is a baseline scenario here. At this pricepoint very few rifles will be so stupidly accurate. Second option is bergara premier of cz 600 mdt. This is stuff that I know. Other scenario is semi custom gun- so stock action and nice barrel like bartlein or brux.

    Opinions on the CZ 600 ST2 Range from owners and people who have shot it please.

    the colt acquisition was a massive mistake. then they fired some valuable employees from CZ USA.

    don’t expect fast responses from a Spanish company.

    Barrel Break In

    Let me think for a second. Cortina does not break in his barrels. Nor does John Krieger. You have a high quality barrel as far as I can see. You really don’ t need to clean it that much. Unless you’re shooting short range benchrest. I don’t clean it before a match or before a hunt because it...

    For the Love of God, GI Joe and John Wayne.... cleaning and abrasive cleaners

    @Frank Green I don't think it's an accident that F-class John, Ultimate Reloader (Gavin) and now Bryan Litz are advertising Thorroclean. I would expect from them a declaration re conflict of interest. Otherwise I don't care why they recommend an abrasive to clean my barrel!

    Blueprinting actions!?

    You are overthinking it. Just learn how to shrink that group of yours to 0.5 MOA.

    6mm BR

    Because I live in continental Europe and alpha brass is more expensive than lapua. I plan to buy 5 boxes of lapua and forger about brass availability.

    6gt

    I will be building my first 6gt later on this year. I plan to run 28". As far as I can see it's on the longer side. Just thinking if tuning it would be much harder than 26".

    6mm BR

    I have to confess I am going to switch from 6BR to 6GT next season due to Lapua brass being available. 6gt run at 2950-3000fps has similar wind drift as 6.5 creedmoor.

    Oryx Bag rider

    Update: I dissasembled the bag rider since it adds torque to the stock. I feel it is better to slide the original oryx in the bag than with a bag rider due to vector of recoil force.

    How to get a load in 50 bullets with Gordon's Reloading Tool (GRT)

    Is there a chance for a shortcut in finding obt? Why not take the predicted obt node charge of powder as reference point and load 25 bullets- 2 charges above and 2charged below the predicted node in 0.2 increments? Wouldn’t be simpler?

    6mm BR

    I have on 28" 1:8 rig chambered for 105 hybrids that I shoot up to 800yds. However for a 100y competition I was thinking about going 22" with a 1:8 spare barrel that I have. It's a BR score competition. What do you think?

    6mm BR

    it has if you know short range benchrest twist rates and bullets weights.

    6mm BR

    Having a 1:8 barrel that I want to use for a 100y competition, what would be your barrel choice? I would like to kill the harmonics with stiffest barrel possible and decided on 22" barrel, but predicted velocity is 2750fps with N140. What barrel length would you go with? I know 1:8 is not ideal...

    6mm BR

    N150 is slower than n140. I am using n140 with great results in f-class. For my short 22” 6br I am switching to n135.

    BAT M vs Borden BRMXD

    BAT is a bigger company, Broden is still a boutique. On both actions I can get LPRB ans so on, so it indeed comes down to lead time. I probably buy the one that I can get quicker.

    BAT M vs Borden BRMXD

    Pricing is almost identical. Intended use: F-open. Difficult choice. Do you guys have experience with both and could help me out? I plan left port right bolt righ ejection, 1.25. 28" tube.

    6mm BR

    Where do you guys find the node for 105gr Hybrids using N140? I am usually within 29.7-30gr but will be testing 31-31.3 to see how it groups. 1:8 twist.
