Re: Anyone using a thumbhole stock on their F-class? This is from a post over on accurateshooter.... http://www.viperbench-rest.com/customizing.htm

Re: 7/08 and 139 GMX I'm running 42.5gr of Varget, Win case, CCI 200 primers with the 139 GMX. All precautions apply. This load is safe in my rifle. It does an awesome job on deer. Good Luck! John

Re: Memphis, TN - F class matches??? www.memphis-ssa.com You can look under their schedule of events and check out their prone matches. If I'm not mistaken, the next one is May 26. 3 x 600. Good luck! John

Re: Lapua case life ??? I anneal my brass regularly, not for extended case life. As mentioned above, primer pockets dictate that. I anneal for CONSISTENT neck tension. Whether you only neck size, full length size or a combination of each, every time the brass is shot, sized and loaded it...

Re: Ftr Training Ideas. My home range goes to 350 yards. I shoot a "mini match" at 350 with 300 yard F Class targets and keep my scope dialed as low as possible to best simulate a 1K range. I shoot it just as I would a 15 round match. I set my timer and shoot paying attention to the...

Re: 155gr Sierra Palma Powder Not sure you can get that velocity with a 22" barrel but IMR 8208 XBR is a really good powder choice for the 155's. I've burned several pounds of it with 2156's. John

Re: Sinclair bipod shooting techniques What works for me is that I took an old cutting board(caught hell from that when wife found out) and made a fairly slick surface for the skis to ride on. That way, wherever you shoot you have the same surface. I use an Edgewood rear bag packed fairly...

Re: Win brass no eject I've experienced the exact same problem. The cases measured the same as the poster above, .463-.464. They would hang in the chamber horribly. I contacted OLIN and told them the problem. They sent me shipping and replaced the faulty brass, several hundred. If there...

Re: Hornady 178 BTHP loads? It's from Alliant's powder guide. It's a PDF file you download from Alliant or order you can order it through mail. John

Re: Hornady 178 BTHP loads? Also, has anyone tried the Power Pro 2000MR with the Berger 185 LRBT's?

Re: Hornady 178 BTHP loads? With the Power Pro 2000MR, what is a good charge to start load testing the 178 BTHP's. Alliant lists 47.7 grains for the 175 SMK. What powder charges are you running? I'll be doing a complete work up, just looking for a good starting point. Thanks... John

Re: 7mm08 Loads Rem 700 Win Brass CCI 200 Primers 139 Hornady GMX 42.5 gr Varget Of course this is in my rifle. Work up and all that stuff. Very accurate and is a hammer on deer. Not sure how it will perform in short barrel, but this is a go to deer load for me. Good Luck! John

Re: 1st 1000 yd shoot and match What's the name of the range in Blakely, GA? Anyone have a schedule for F Class there? Thanks, John

Re: Left my rifle at the doctors office today... I started at .010" off and worked in with .005" increments. Load 3 at 2.xxx, subtact .005", repeat until you've gone ~ .050". If you find the sweet spot before you shoot them all just pull them and re-seat. I shoot seating depth tests the...

Re: Dissasembly of RCBS Uniflow...help? I use the UniFlow to throw my charges then weigh them. I set it up to be just a little under my target load and use a trickler to finish up. It's hard to get it to throw exact charges every time but it's a heck of a lot easier to throw them a little...

Re: 308 155 amax will it carry out to 1000 yds I have not shot the 175's from AB but it is my understanding the 175 OTM handles the transonic area very well and stays nose on to the target at ranges that other bullets tend to yaw. I'm curious to what others have to say as well.

Re: Left my rifle at the doctors office today... Are you jumping or jamming the 2156's? In my experience, others may disagree, but I've had really good success jumping them a long way. My go to load for them is 44.9 gr 8208, Win brass, and CCI primers. I did the typical OCW with them, found...

Re: Left my rifle at the doctors office today... On the 185's, 43.8 to 44.1 is going to be your node. Common points of impact and common grouping. 44.4 looks like your starting to enter the scatter node a bit and 44.7 is the scatter node. I'd fine tune the load between 43.8 and 44.1-3ish...
