Anybody shooting a short bbl in 7mm short? Re-barreling now that deer season is over. Going either .308 or 7mm....really want the 7 just want to go short if possible... Any comments?

Got him yesterday evening just before dark. He came out in a food plot running does. Ran them off then came back by himself to feed. Shot him about 170 yards with a 120 amax from my APA 6.5 Lapua. He only took 3 bounds and fell over dead! He has a forked G2 on his right side. Its hard to...

I got a chance to actually chrono my rifle. I had been backing come ups into JBM for a while and thought it was running around 2850. Found out I am at a lot slower node than that. 123 Scenar average 2750 120 A-Max average 2795 It was suprising. Not going to change anything, it shoots...

I started loading 120 amax for my 6.5L for white tail loads. I normally run 123 scenars. When I seat the round it seams like the die is creating a slight deformation where it engages the projectile. Its hard to see but you can feel it with your fingers. Seems to squish it in a little. They...

I developed a good load for my 6.5 Lapua with no pressure sign. 123 scenar 35.5g RL-15 COAL 2.635" puts me .010 off the lands trim length is to spec 1.831" 2840 fps With virgin brass no pressure - resized brass gets pressure. Bolt is a little sticky sometimes and leaves a mild ejector mark...

I've got them seated just touching the lands like using a berger VLD...is this acceptable practice with this pill?

What kind of terminals are you seeing with this pill? I shot an eight pointer at 200 yards. Good pass through...probably too good, not much expansion. The exit would was pretty small. Shot a coyote as well....seemed to pin hole there as well. I'm thinking of going to another projectile...A...

Got in the deerstand Sunday morning. Saw a bunch of does and young bucks, this gal came along stalking some young deer. I could not resist! Shot her at 200 yards with a 123 scenar.

I am getting some mild ejector swipe on the brass with 37.3 grains of RL 15. Pretty good primer cratering also. I'm only about 700 ft above sea level. The ejector swipting is not every round but it does seem to polish the back of the brass on each shot. You can't feel any indintation from...

I am using this for my 6.5X47. I have developed a load based on the virgin Lapua brass. When I run the once fired brass through the die, the neck is quite a bit more narrow that the virgin brass. I'll have to put my micrometer on it to measure the differnce. I'm not getting any pressure...

Just picked up my 6.5 from American Precision (Patriot Arms)... Read all the articles on the round but need to know where to start the powder charge to work up a load. Thanks! Jim
