    1197 -now 1293 with my 308

    Took the furthest poke i've tried yet with my 308. I won't say it was the classic bang clang that you hope for, but i did manage two hits and a lot of really close misses. Funny how 1100 can be hit with regularity, but toss another 100 on there and you start to feel like an idiot flinging...

    Hunting & Fishing last chicken for him! amax pics incl

    So i failed the loophole test and put my first round directly into a fence board instead of between two, but the follow up as he was running away at a 90 angle did him in. it was about 150 yards, not really a great feat except that the rifle weighs so much it is hard to shoot offhand. anyway...

    load performing oddly...

    my load for my .308 is 41.5 gr IMR 4064, with a 178 amax going 2615 fps. it is under 1/2 moa at 100, and seems to hold out to 800. this has been a real performer for me, and has shot great thus far. just took it out to 1,000 for the second time, and i have the same results, WAY more...

    First time-short vid

    first time past 1,000 yards today. it was amazing. just the delay between recoil and bullet strike alone is addicting enough. anyway here ya go. man it was fun oh 41.5 grains of IMR 4064, with a 178 amax on top out of a rem sps w/nightforce 5.5-22 on top...

    big +1 for timney triggers

    just put a timney on my rem 700 sps. Not only was the install easy (one minor tweak) but man what a trigger for the price. this is the second timney i have put on a rifle, and both have been awesome. no creep, nearly no travel, crisp break. NIGHT AND DAY FROM THE X-MARK THAT IT CAME WITH-...

    308 brass warp issue

    On the fourth reloading of my brass (.308 - 41.5 gr IMR4064 Standard primer pushing 178 amax) im starting to notice about 5% of rounds not chambering easily. All friction is on the edge of the base of the brass, next to the primer where the headstamp is. The bolt will close fine, just a...
