I want to get a .30-06 AR.

Starline has .260 brass in stock.

I shoot the 7.6 Creedmoor Plus. It’s too bad people don’t know about it.

It’s not technology, it’s the ballistics you can achieve with the case capacity available. The 6.5 Creedmoor can push a bullet with a higher BC at a higher velocity than the .308 can.

It’s all good. I enjoy talking shit on the internet but not when it comes to something that can blow my face off. I started off with a factory SPS .30-06 but I picked up a Long Range with the 26” barrel. I doubt the 10” twist will work well for the 225s and 230s but I figured it was worth a...

Just asking questions, not trying to imply anything. Not too much info for really heavy .308 or .30-06 loads that I’ve seen. I’ve stocked up on 215s, 208s, 225s and 230s for my .30-06 but I just moved to a new house and don’t have my reloading bench set up yet. I’m wanting to see what powders...

what pressure are you getting with the 225s at that velocity?

Are you using hybrid brass for the .308?

According to Berger, their 140 VLD would be marginally stable with the 8.5 twist. Their 130 VLD would be stable.

The first AR lower I ever bought was a complete LMT Defender 2000 and was really nice. I’m disappointed to hear about their quality issues. I’ve been wanting a MARS H.

Congrats on the citizenship. The M1 Garand and M1903A3 are two of my favorite rifles.

Not if it you want a 26” heavy barrel .30-06.

Ok, but the 215 at 2725 is reasonable.

Why not just run a .30-06 at that point? Plenty of people are pushing the bullets you want at those velocities and you can get great brass.

What don’t you like about the Stiller action?

Remington 700 M40 Long Range .30-06 Vortex PST Gen II 6-24x50 Timney trigger

They definitely do. I zeroed my rifle with some Prvi Partisan M2 ball I bought for my M1 and M1903A3. Then I switched to some HSM 208 A Max loads I bought a while back. The difference in energy was significant. The 150 grainers were mild and swung the steel target pretty good. The 208 grainers...

It’s like the .260 Rem vs the 6.5 Creedmoor. The .260 has more case capacity but the 6.5 Creedmoor was designed to keep longer bullets out of the powder column. The Lapua has more case capacity, but the Norma can use the longer bullets more efficiently.

I picked up 500 pieces of Starline .30-06 but I haven’t had a chance to load anything yet. I have a Remington 700 Long Range and an assortment of bullets from 200 grains to 230 grains.

Off topic, but do you see much 6.8 SPC?
