I run the hornady 75 gr hpbt bullets in my varminter at mag length with no problems out to 600 yards.

I too just picked up a 1600 arc for the price and must say I'm pretty impressed with it. I have ranged all the way out to 1830 with it and everything under that, I have noticed it gets a bit confused when things are close to each other. Bushnell just upgraded it to the 1mile version so I wonder...

Another for Liberty optics!

Re: Arisaka build Isn't that one of the actions used when ackley tested his loads. I was told they even blew barrels of the action, it was the stronger of the military actions of the time.

Re: .280 in 300 win mag AI mag I run the 300 win mags also with the feed lips tweeked a little, the fed great but i did end up trimming back the the front of the feed lips to make it easier to loads the ackley rounds as the shoulder was right at the end of the lips.
