I was able to get a hold of Boretech & there were several reasons that they gave me... which lead me to the 40" 1) I am also using one of their bore patch guides 2) and if you ever get a tight patch near the end of the barrel... it's best not to have a cleaning rod "Just" long enough. Figure...
I have a CZ 457 Varmint MTR on order and it should arrive in a couple of weeks. Because I don’t have the rifle in hand - I am unable to use Bore Tech’s website to determine the length of cleaning rod needed. Is anyone running a 457 Varmint MTR with a Bore tech Bore guide and Bore Tech cleaning...
Just as a final summary straight from Redding to help clear up any confusion. When doing an initial die setup & using competition shell holders (this part of it is KEY). They recommend a slight cam over. Then you use the competition shell holders to obtain the amount of shoulder bump that...
Baron23… I am not failing at this. I understand the directions as stated in the video when using the non-competition shell holders. That being said - I will be using competition shell holders. After getting off the phone with technical support - the official answer is when using the...
Sorry for any confusion. I am using the Redding Type S full length bushing die to both resize the brass and adjust the neck tension. I am just trying to determine how far I should screw the die into the press. Do I screw it in until there is some cam over... or do I setup up so it does not...
Baron23... and that's my conudrum. Mulitple sources suggest mulitple ways of setting up the die. The reason why I am leaning twords setting it up w/ a slight camover is because I do have the competition dies to set the shoulder bump and don't need to rely on moving the die to adjust the bump.
Thank you - that was the direction that I was leaning... because: 1) I figure that a little cam over will cause the die to be concentric with the ram on the press (assuming I tighten the die down while the press is cammed over) 2) Once the die is set I will be using the comptition shellholders...
I am getting ready to setup a Redding Type S full length sizing die for a 300PRC. I do have (and will be using if necessary) the competition shell holders for the 300 PRC. My question is… is it ideal to setup the die so that it free floats a bit?... or is best to setup the die so that there is...
I have and use both BoreTech & KG; of the two KG does seem to get the job done sooner and with less effort. To make real quick work of carbon I use iosso paste... but then again it is an abrassive.
I am looking to swap out the radial Vais muzzle brake that came with my GAP 6.5 Saums Xtreme Hunter to a directional muzzle brake. I lack the tools to measure thread counts. Can anyone tell me the size of muzzle brake I need to replace it?
I am trying to verify that I am ordering the correct Sinclair bump gauge for both a 300 PRC and 6.5 PRC. Unfortunately Sinclair’s website does not specifically list the PRC cartridges. 749-011-481WS #30A 30° Shoulder (25 to 338 Caliber) Bump Gage Insert Mfr Part: 0910301...
I'm with Atomic41 - Love: Danilo Petrucci. Seems to be a great guy and a heck of a racer. Minus a small mis-hap after stage 5, I think that he had the capactiy to be a serious contender for a podium. Next year Danilo... next year!
Does anyone have anu updated range report that they could give me on the: Prime Ammunition 6.5 SAUM 4S Ammo 142 Grain OTM Match+? I'd like to get some feedback before I place an order for a couple of hundred rounds.
End result - I did not notice any difference between the normal rounds and the rounds with the shoulders bumped too much. In fact I was able to use the same dope to hit an 8” piece of steel at 600 yards four out of four times (two were the oversized brass and two were the normally sized brass)...
Bingo - I just watched the video... and that makes total sense. It's this type of knowledge and discussions that take place on the Hide that makes it such an invaluable tool! Well I will shoot the oversized cases and see if accuracy is greatly impacted.
Spife7980 - I think I follow what you are saying and agree with you. Essentially the O-give to the lands will be no different between the properly bumped shoulder and the overly bumbed shoulder. The only thing that I might see which "m1Match" brought up is some excessive wear on my brass.
thestoicmarcusaurelius - I track what you are saying... that being said. The O-give lenght on the properly bumped cases versus the over bumped cases is exacatly the same.
