Re: Interesting 208 Amax issue I have a recently purchased a lot of 500 and they were so inconsistent in base to ogive that I had to sort the whole batch to make them shoot. Loaded the first 50 of that lot and was having 3x the normal vertical spread of that load with a previous lot of 208s...

Re: New 6.5 Grendel Build Complete. (PIC HEAVY) Nothing will fit OVER your Vortex and I forgot to mention that the Cyclone would require you to rethread your barrel to 5/8-24 tpi so in my opinion no go for the Cyclone on your current barrel due to the hassles of setting back losing length and...

Re: NEED 223 LOAD ? - 77SMK with IMR 8208 XBR Yea, minor detail we are at 5k asl

Re: NEED 223 LOAD ? - 77SMK with IMR 8208 XBR I wouldn't say "well", about 1.5 moa of vertical with the XBR @ 43.0. I could be happy with half that. I did run the numbers on Exbal and the calculated elevation is within .25 moa of actual, so velocity is very close on the CED?? Again is all...

Re: NEED 223 LOAD ? - 77SMK with IMR 8208 XBR Thanks again! I went out this morning and tried 23.0/LC case/ Wolf SRM /2.255". This is out of a AR wih a 26" Krieger 7.7 twist. Shot at 1050 Yds. looking at vertical dispertion at the same time chronographing with a CED M2. 10 rounds Avg...

Re: NEED 223 LOAD ? - 77SMK with IMR 8208 XBR Thanks for the info. Do you have any personal experience with the combination and in what rifle/barrel configuration?

Re: Off Center Flash Holes I recently purchased 200 new Winchester cases from Sportsman's Warehouse and about half were very noticeably of center and had a big booger hanging on the inside of the case. SW took them back no questions asked. I am very disappointed in the QC of Win. over the...

Re: NEED 223 LOAD ? - 77SMK with IMR 8208 XBR Wow! From the lack of response I guess we are both going to be in the dark a while. I'm guessing it is the new secret recipe nobody wants to discuss!? I have some inside info that this is the new combo for a major manufactures new match...

Re: Hottest load for .223? Rewind before you take any advice on that ? Accuracy should be your main concern not max velocity. Also to give you any guidance it would be helpful to know some parameters, rifle/chamber/twist...??

I'm needing a load for the 77 SMK with IMR 8208 XBR to be used in a AR. Any experience out there would be greatly appreciated!

Re: New 6.5 Grendel Build Complete. (PIC HEAVY) I forgot to mention, I to HAD a 6.5 Grendel and regret having sold it. It too was the most accurate rifle I have ever owned and on a AR platform to boot. Shot a 7 round group at a lasered 1050 yds. of 3.25" with the Black Hills factory 123...

Re: New 6.5 Grendel Build Complete. (PIC HEAVY) I have just recently taken receipt of my a AAC Cyclone (3 weeks ago) and I believe it was produced around mid January, anyhow don't know how that fits into your "mod 8" description. As for using it on your Grendel it would be perfect. I have...

Re: 115 DTAC at 3150 fps in 243 Win ? I called CED today and of course they were mystified by my complaint. They promised to have their main tech give me a call in the evening but I didn't hear from them, YET. They tried to tell me that my testing process was flawed because, I did not...

Re: 115 DTAC at 3150 fps in 243 Win ? Oh man! I know you are all going to wonder about me at this point! I sold my Oehler 35 a few months back thinking it was getting a little old and thinking something newer would be more accurate and bought into the sales hype of the CED M2 with the...

Any experience out there with the 308/Cyclone and Trail Boss sub-sonic loadings? Yes, I understand the instructions say no subsonic ammunition and only factory FMJ is recommended. Just curious if someone has been there and done that with any success.

Re: 115 DTAC at 3150 fps in 243 Win ? ALMAORFE, on your 243 GAP barrel, what brand, land config. and twist rate are you working with? What are your min. and max. thus far for RL17 and have you settled on a bullet to land dimension that seems sweet?

Re: 115 DTAC at 3150 fps in 243 Win ? Thanks so far for the input. I left out that these are HBN coated that I am using.

Just wondering what is successful in the 243 Win with the 115 DTAC to achieve 3100 to 3150 fps. I have a Bartlein 7.7 5R 28" barrel and have tried RL-25 at up to 48.2 grains with very little in the way of pressure signs (very slight bolt hesitation and NO ejector marking) and have settled back...

Re: wolf primers Has anyone heard of the recent newer lots that are not nickle plated? Cups are now bronze colored and not as hard. Any feedback on what else may have changed?
