    115 grn 243.

    Re: 115 grn 243. With the new Berger 105g Hybrid in 6mm, I cant understand loading the 115g bullets in the 6mm caliber. The 105g Hybrids have a higher BC and can be driven faster, so ballistics will be improved. Something to think about if you havent already purchased the 115g bullets.

    6mm Berger Hybrid

    Re: 6mm Berger Hybrid With the Hybrid having a higher BC than either the DTACs or the 115g Berger VLDs and being able to push them faster, the long range ballistics make more sense to shoot the Hybrids. Killshot, your results are interesting. You have been the first person that I have read...

    Fine Tuning a Load's OCW and Seating Depth

    Re: Fine Tuning a Load's OCW and Seating Depth glock24, I agree with your OCW assessment above, but would challenge your seating depth choice. I would have chosen the 10 thous off as my load. Then, as your throat erodes, you at least know that you are good for another 5 thous of erosion...

    ??? ar comp in .223

    Re: ??? ar comp in .223 24.7 to 24.8g with the 52g Amax in RP cases was the OCW charge in my FIL's Rem 700 SPS. 25.4g was the max with his rifle. His twist doesnt allow heavier bullets. Hope that helps. Here is a link to my work-up with it...

    Making 6.5 CM brass

    Re: Making 6.5 CM brass 260CM is a 6.5x250AI. You can also buy Lapua .22-250 brass and use the COW method to nicely form 260 CM brass if necessary. My brother had a .22-250 that he shot the barrel out of and has a bunch of .22-250 brass left over. He plans to get a 260CM barrel and use...

    Does anyone make a stock pad for a left handed shooter? I have a Tac-Ops pad as a gift, but I shoot left handed so my face is on the wrong side. Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been asked before.

    284 Win or 7mmRM

    Re: 284 Win or 7mmRM What is your rifle going to be used for? For hunting, I would suggest the 7RM due to the availability of factory loads in a bind. For steel/target shooting, I would load the 284 Win. Better brass, known loadings. Looking at the 7mm page on 6mmbr.com, the 7RM is not...

    20 thou of the Lands now what?

    Re: 20 thou of the Lands now what? Here is a link to some OCW charges with Winchester cases and Varget powder in .308. He recommends that you reduce your load by 0.4% for Lapua cases. (He's not a fan of Federal cases). These are directly from Dan who came up with OCW loading and these are...

    20 thou of the Lands now what?

    Re: 20 thou of the Lands now what? Which cases? Winchester, Lapua, Fed, etc?? Each case has slightly different capacity. I think Varget is going to be your powder, how much is likely dependent on which cases you are using. Let us know. (Sorry if I came across ashholish, just trying to...

    20 thou of the Lands now what?

    Re: 20 thou of the Lands now what? If you want to load from magazine, not sure why you did an overall length test. I would just load at maximum mag length and shoot an OCW test or ladder test to find your powder charge at that overall length. It doesnt matter what length from the lands your...
