I went shooting today and had a very strange POI shift occur. First, the details: I recently had my Jerod Joplin PAI Rem. 700 .308 removed from the McMillan A5 and installed in a AIAX chassis. The lug was a little long and was bottoming out in the lug pocket on the chassis. I had my local...

I picked up an AIAX chassis from Mile High Shooting for my Remington 700 built by PAI /APA. It is an amazing set up and pin point accurate. Originally came in a McMillian A5 with Badger M5 bottom metal. I changed to the AIAX chassis cause I wanted a stock with folding capabilities so I could...

Can anyone recommend a smith who can take a factory new Remington 700 short action with .308 bolt face and convert the bolt to accept a Savage floating / interchangeable bolt face(s) in both .223 and .308? Looking to make a rifle with a PacNor Rem. nut and barrels in 300 Whisper or 300 Blackout...

Finally got a chance to shoot at 1,000 yards. 1,000 yard match at Rivoli Range in New Windsor, IL. Got lots of 9's, 10's, and X's but a few 7's and 8's due to wind conditions. Rifle is from Jered Joplin in .308 with a USO T-PAL optic.

I got a chance to finally shoot 1,000 yard. The only ranges in my area are 100 yards. I'm using a .308 PAI rifle with a USO T-PAL with hand rolled ammo - 175 grain Sierra MatchKing, 45.3 grains of Varget, Winchester brass, and CCI Benchrest primers going 2750 fps. Using iPhone Ballistic it...

I'm somewhat new to reloading. I just picked up a Possum Hollow case trimmer in .308 and it states that you must bump the shoulder before trimming. I have Forestner Competition dies with a FL sizer. I set up the dies according to the insructions. How do I know when I properly bumped the...

Yes another Scott at Liberty Optics is the man post. A few months back I contacted Scott via e-mail regarding the cost and availability of a Trijicon TR-24 1-4X green triangle reticle scope. This was around 0030 hours on a Sunday. Within ten minutes, Scott replied with an awesome quoted...

Okay, I'm new to reloading for precision shooting. I've been doing some reloading and shooting and have some concerns over my powder charging based on the difference in FPS from round to round. I'm weighing every charge using a Redding BR3 powder thrower, an RCBS 505 scale, and a Redding...

I have some Varget from 1999 and loaded some .308 with 175 SMK in Win. brass, CCI BR-2, and 42 grains of Varget as a starter load. It seemed a little hot. Is old or older lots of Varget more powerful than the new lots?

Just a newbie working on developing a load for my new "used" PAI rifle. Do you need to size new brass? I have new Win. brass do I need to size them or just primer pocket uniform, flash hole deburr, Trim to length, chamfer inside and outside of neck, and then load? Thanks

Got my Patriot Arms Rem. 700 .308 with a 22 inch barrel and just mounted my USO SN3 TPAL. Now it's time to develope a load. I plan on using the TAC powder I have on hand as it meters well. What do you all suggest for starting and ending charge weights to push 155 gr. Lapua Scenars and 175 gr...

Yes, we all know that Scott with Liberty Optics is the s&@t when it comes to optics and great customer service. But.........did you know that he has some sort of magical, voodoo, ESP, (or caller ID) powers. I called from work to place an order and got the answering machine. I understand that...

Looking to order some Butler Creek flip up lens caps for my new super cool USO SN3 3.2-17X44 TPAL. Seems that the eyepiece and objective size falls between the available sizes. Anyone know offhand what size to order for the eyepiece and objective? Do I order the larger size and shim or do I...

Need some help and advice. I'd like to measure powder using my Redding 3BR powder measure, RCBS 505 scale and Redding powder trickler to ensure the most accurate charges using Varget and others. My idea is to first size, clean, and prep brass. Then to use the 550 in a semi-progressive mode to...
