Re: 6.5 Creedmoor thickness question I live near Brunos so I can get 100 round of Lapua 308 win Match for $62 so I figured I'd give it a shot and not too long ago I everyone was waiting for a new batch of hornady brass to be shipped from hornady.

I have a custom 6.5 creedmoor build. I am currently using new 308 Lapua brass and through several steps turning them to 6.5 cases. My question: once the 08' cases are sized the thickness of the neck is significant (around .016) I've been turning the necks to a even .014 all around. Is it bad to...

When fire-forming factory new brass, is it best to fire-form with HOT loads or mid level loads with mid burn rate powder for best/most consistent results? Thank you for your answers

Re: Trim to length question thank you very much for the response. Much appreciated

I just bought a sinclair max chamber length gauge. I trimmed my case way back, inserted the soft steel gauge in the case and got a maximum length measurement. My question is how far back should I trim it. It just so happens in this particular rifle it tends to like near maximum charges for...

I am thinking of re barreling and giving the 260 rem a try. My question is, if I'm using a badger DBM system, can the bullets can 142 SMK's be loaded to land depth in general? How about Lapua 139 Scenars? Just curious. Thanks

Was thinking of my next gun being a 260 rem. I was just wondering what loads people were getting out of their 260s to see what I can expect out of a 26'' barrel. Thanks

Re: Bolt stop/release Mod wow, great pics. Looks like something I'll definitely have done. Does this mod override the trigger bolt release and how? If I was to get a jewel trigger put in, then the bolt mod, do they do anything to the trigger to negate the bolt release? Thank you

Re: Bolt stop/release Mod anyone have a picture of one done for them by GAP?

Re: What does "CIP Length" Mean thanks a lot for the information. It helped a lot

Looking to build a 338 Lapua Magnum. I was on Badgers site and it shows their DBM at "CIP Length" Anyone know what the max cartridge length would be? and what exactly does CIP length mean. Thanks a lot for your help

Re: A5 Adjustable Integral Cheekpiece fix That was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much

Re: Whats your round count on your current barrel? 509 rounds on my HS Heavy Tactical on 300 WM

I have an A5 adjustable cheek piece with a thumb wheel. The thing looses up after 1 shot of my 308 every time. I thought I remember reading something about a piece of hardware could purchase to drop in in the stock to negate the thumb wheel. Can anyone help?

Re: Hand Loading for Long Range 2: Bullet Sort/Pre yeah I don't see myself doing that, however, it was just a question I was curious about. And to be honest, for me anyway, sorting bullets into piles while watching tv or whatever is quite easy. I'm glad you called to verify because for a...

Re: Hand Loading for Long Range 2: Bullet Sort/Pre the reason I keep getting stuck on this topic is because a sinclair tech and their catalog says to sort bullets by base to ogive before trimming meplats using the meplat uniformer. Curious.

Re: Hand Loading for Long Range 2: Bullet Sort/Prep yes I understand base to tip, what I meant to ask if it wasn't clear above, you measure base to ogive and sort them to put them in the meplat uniformer. The sinclair meplat uniformer housing holds bullets by the meplat so measuring and...

Re: Am I crazy (Reloader 22 Load)? ctt, I tried almost the exact same thing messing with br-2 primers with RE 22 in my 300. I had the same results as you did. When switching to Mag primers it was an instant cure. I even messed with seating depth which seemed to have a sort of hit and miss...
