Re: 30-06 185 vld I loaded up some 185 VLD Bergers in my Model 70 using the same powder, used WLMR primers but don'r remember the charge, Got it written down elsewhere. Groups were better than any other facory or hand loads, best group was about 3/4" at 100, 4 in 1 hole and 1 just out. Others...

I just picked up a used Ruger GSR from a friend, he put 100 rds thru it and grew tired of it. I traded a Ruger 357 and some cash and got the rifle. I personally shot it when he bought it new back in July and it shoots dead on at 100 yds with no sight adjustment needed. Groups were anout 2-3...

Re: Light primer strikes on reloads, first reloads.... I'm gonna order the new spring, it's a backordered item though. Thanks Billy

Just loaded 40 30-06 rds and had 6 misfires, light primer strikes. Tried em again and no go. Primers feel that they are seated properly. Seated em with a Hornady press. I did use large rifle Winchester magnum primers though. This was my first time reloading, my friend who reloads alot said that...

Re: SPS Tactical in .223? I got that same rifle, HS precision 5R takeoff stock from Gunbroker 200.00, Timney rigger and Leupold Mark AR Mildot scope. Only shot it out to 400 yds, but with great accuracy. Best group so far was a 5 shot group at about .380". Great rifle, 75 gr Hornady match...

I'm new to reloading and was wanting to start reloading for both my Winchester modle 70 30-06 and model 70 300 WSM. Both have 1-10" twist barrels, standard contour. I'll be shooting 180 gr nosler silvertips and 185 Berger hunting VLD's out of them. I have bullets, brass, dies and primers, I'm...

Has anyone here ordered the Hornady 223 75 gr BTHP match ammo from the CMP? If so was it the 75 gr A max bullets or 75 gr match BTHP, the web page says info on both. Billy

I've got a 223 SPS Tactical and the accuracy is just awesome. I'm thinking of picking up a 308 version and noticed that they have come out with the AAC-SD SPS Tactical too. My question is how are these compared to the older SPS Tactical 308 rifles? I've see and heard of awesome results from...

I just got back from sighting in my Remington 700 223 Tactical. It's got a 1/9 twist. Got it sighted in at 100 w/ 75 gr Hornady V-Max and it's about 3/4" consistently at 100 yds. I then shor 2 different Hornady 75 gr factory loads w/ excellent results. 75 gr TAP HP printed between 1" and 3/4"...

Well I finally got my 223 SPS Tactical put together. Started out as a plain jane 223 Tactical. Got a HS Precision 5R take off tactical stock w/ full bedding block, and put a Leupold Mark AR 3X9X40 Mildot scope on it. Went out today, at 10 degrees F, zero wind (Alaska). This is the first time...

Re: For Alaskans, WWG I'm the one that posted the thread about the SS scopes on the Alaska Outdoors directory forum. I'll never walk into Wild West Guns again. They are a bunch of smart asses and snobs to say the least. I shop at Sportsman's Warehouse, Chimo Guns (Wasilla), Boondocks (Eagle...

Re: Recoil on a PSS 308. A bit off topic but would sure appreciate your giving Sarah and Lisa a big smooch for me!!! Tonque would be a given but will leave it optional for you Tell me what I am missing after the fact Sarah yes, Lisa I'd need a 12 pack. Thanks for the feedback. I will...

How bad is the recoil on the Remington 700 PSS 308? I just bought a HS Precision 700 PSS stock for my 308 SPSV (bull barrel) and it's a basically a PSS now. The recoil pad is a thin piece of hard rubber. Just curious to see what the recoil is like. About 15 yrs ago I has a 308 M77 varmint and...

Again no pics, cause I don't know how to. But got a take off HS Precision 700 PSS stock off of AR15.com for 200.00. Hope to get it by friday. This is gonna go on my 308 SPS Varmint. Has some scratches and I'm planning on painting it flat black like it was from the factory. What over the counter...

Re: My Alaska Mountain Black Bear Nice one, you up in AK for good or just to hunt? I moved up her from San Angelo Tx back in 1999 and never left. I love bear hunting too but caribou taste much better. Good bear Tex.

Re: Rem 700 PSS Starter Rifle? I read a very in depth article about the SPS and the PSS. The only difference was the HS Precision stock. Same barrel and rate of twist, same trigger and floor plate assembly, action, finish and bolt. Only the stock, even the barrels and recievers are marked the...

Re: Why bolt .223 over AR platform? Because I already have and AR15!

Sorry no pics, bought a new HS Precision 5R stock for my 700V SPS and let me tell ya, that stock was worth the wait and money. Rock solid and free floated, it's like it is welded to the action. And the palm swell and forearm just fills the hand perfect. Now I need a scope!

Re: 700 sps tactical in 223 Just put that same rifle (223) on layaway 7 days ago. I'm gonna use it as my snowmobile rifle this winter as I transit the frozen rivers and countryside of Alaska. Should be a great fast predator rifle.

I've been reading the reviews for my next scope for my 223 SPS Tactical and it looks like it's gonna have to be the 3x9x40 mildot Leupold MK AR scope. I really dig the idea of the 223 calibrated scope, I'll start out w/ 55 gr bullets and work my way up to a heavier bullet. If I have to send the...
