    Hunting & Fishing 240gr pp sn 30cal woodleigh

    Re: 240gr pp sn 30cal woodleigh So you would need to achieve 2600 fps to reach that level with a 30-06. Good luck with that. If you want to chase cheap energy why not use a shotgun? 12 Gauge, 3 - 1/2" Lightfield Mag Ballistics Information: # Muzzle Velocity: 1890 fps # Muzzle Energy: 4759...

    Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass?

    Re: Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass? No, I don't see the need to put a large chamfer on the OD of the case mouth and the ID chamfer isn't large enough to create a sharp corner. I simply do not have the tools to accurately place a chamfer that would cut the case OAL down after every load...

    20 thou of the Lands now what?

    Re: 20 thou of the Lands now what? I have a Sako A7 300wm with a similar problem (short magazine length with a long throat). I would just add some extra elevation or speed up the start of the ladder test. My 300 varied almost 10" vertical at 300 yards with my ladder test. Sounds like your...

    Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass?

    Re: Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass? I think you missed a zero in there for .308 case length. In my rifle I haven't noticed a difference in accuracy when within the trim range 2.005" to 2.015", but when I trim I usually trim to min. Chamfering the case mouth should not affect case OAL and...

    20 thou of the Lands now what?

    Re: 20 thou of the Lands now what? I think you should have started looking at powder first and then moved to seating depth. If your first 5 where not on paper they must have been considerably slower than the last 15. I wouldn't worry about loading that slow, but that's just my opinion. How...

    Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass?

    Re: Chamfer/deburr twice fired brass? How do they measure compared to spec? Some would say they like all the cases the exact same length for consistency, but I haven't seen a significant difference in a small level of tolerance as long as its not too long for your chamber. I would assume...

    Member Link Up ANYONE in Illinois??

    Re: ANYONE in Illinois?? I'm in Aurora and normally go to Wisconsin to shoot, but places are limited for longer than 300 yds. I wouldn't mind coming out and shooting. I have all the equipment for reloading 300, 30-06, and 308. I'm currently try to develop a hunting load in my 300 for a...

    Sako A7 stock upgrades

    Re: Sako A7 stock upgrades I noticed the same thing, but mine feels like the stiffness is from the bolt sliding over the end of the case. I can also feel when the extractor clicks on the case head. Seems to be a good rifle for now, just need to find ammo that it likes to shoot (so far...

    Sako A7 stock upgrades

    Just bought a new Sako A7 300 Win Mag last fall before deer season and am really happy with the gun. That being said, it weighs about 8.5 lbs with scope/rings. To sight in and shoot deer it is fine, but after 10 or 15 shots it becomes a bit of a beast to shoot. I took it apart and looked at...
