    New 1000 yard range in Ocala Florida

    I wouldn't says its Ocala, more like Dunnellon which is west of Ocala by about 25 miles. Awesome facility with a great layout and comfy covered shooting positions both high (top of connex) and ground level. At ground level you are shooting over a natural depression so the mirage doesent kill...

    Currently running 8208 but have run, Varget, Benchmark, and IMR 3031 with great results as well. I am seeing better velocity with lower ES using the 8208

    NEED Recommendations for a switch barrel rifle

    Since you already have a .308 sized bolt, why not go with a 22-250 and run the 77 -80 grn class bullets in a 7.5 twist. H-414 can be found here and there, plus it will still get you to 1K

    Case Study Of Optimum Barrel Time For 308

    I have skimmed through this thread as I use this method and didn't see anything about QL / Powder calibration. Don't forget, you have to calibrate QL to your "chronographed powder charge". It doesn't matter what charge you chronograph as long as all components are the same when you go to work...

    Loading Sierra 155's

    I am running the 155 Scenars and 43.6 grains of 8208, it's piling them in on top of each other. After 200 or so rounds, when I am sure the barrel is broken in I will move up in charge weight. That way I know my speeds and dope won't change. Thanks for that bit of knowledge Joe and Benjie

    Rifle Scopes Mounting 20 MOA rings on 10 MOA picatinny mount.

    First question, 20+10= 30 Second question, at what distance do you plan to zero your scope. If you plan on 100 yards, what is total elevation travel on your particular scope. Divide that in half, and if it is greater than 30, you might be OK.
