Re: Berger 185 BTTLR and RL-17 for 600/1000 FTR I use to shoot RL17 with a 185 gr custom bullet. To be optimized it has to be pushed towards the limits of safe level. I don't have my notes with me but from memory primer pockets (Winchester brass) opened up, sticky bolt and extractor marks...

Re: F-T/R Bullet Weight Cap (proposed), discussion. I voted for no restrictions on bullet weight eventhough I shoot 185s but not the yellow box version. I got in trouble a few years ago about F-T/R with one of the "big names" popular in the forums and the State of TN because as a new...

Re: Need help with a 308 win load using the Berger 185 As long as this is a winter load and not to be shot over 60* work up from 42 grains of VV550. Below 50* you can get up to 47.2+/- grns depending on your rifle. Above 60* I wouldn't shoot above 46.4 grns. Its that temperature sensitive...

Is it possible to remove the upper right hand safety and make it an upper left hand safety. I have a side bolt release so don't need one. PoPo

Re: Obermeyer Barrels I have a 10tw 28" .308 barrel. Its a great barrel. Boots has been cutting 5R barrels longer than some other makers have been alive practically. Bugholes sells them here on the Hide.

Re: Browning A-Bolts TAC, I do believe you can call Tom Manners and get a stock inletted for it. That's what I am toying with too. Also the Badger lug matches up to A-bolts too. Po-Po

Re: Browning A-Bolts Thanks Tac, I have heard they are difficult to rebarrel because Browning uses a adhesive on the barrel threads. What I have is a .280 with a 22" a pencil barrel for the mountains. I have another 7mm barrel thats going to be recontoured and and cut down to 28". Its a...

Anyone ever have a browning A-Bolt rebarreled? I have a left handed barreled action that I would like to put a heavier barrel on. Thanks, Po-Po

Re: Berger 30 Cal 185 BT Long Range? Powder Valley has them as well

Re: 185 Bergers? LUCKILY no they don't cost $84/100 here in the states. I use to use 40 grns of varget for 600 yrds for a while. Tried Re17 too with 185s. I got tired of paying $45-$47 for bullets with f---ed up meplats or other QC issues and went to a custom rebated boat tail bullet in...
