    Re: Light primer strikes or dud primers? Pull one of the bullets out, just to be safe. Start putting layers of masking tape on the back of the case, easch layer will add about .003-.004 to the OAL of the case. See how many you can put on before the bolt will not close. It would be nice...

    Short Range Match Load: Am I out Gunned?

    Re: Short Range Match Load: Am I out Gunned? Who cares if your out gunned. If you go out and shoot your 308 , and you truly shoot the best you can you will have fun. I have shot benchrest for 4 years and I shoot the 6br with a benchrest setup, but on a remington action. I have beat many a...

    Berger 95 VLD ?

    Re: Berger 95 VLD ? I use the Berger 95 vld, 105vld, and the Sierra 107's in my 6br. It shoots real nice but the VLD's wont expand like a Ballistic tip, or soft nose bullet. If you are shooting long range accuracy they are awesome. I have shot them in 1-8, and 1-10 twist barrels (20"...
