    .300 WM compaired to 260 Remington

    Re: .300 WM compaired to 260 Remington I switched over to the 260 a year ago. If you are just shooting paper/steel the 260 is a great round if you handload and you also shoot at distances inside or 1000. Lapua brass is easy to get and there are a good # of high BC bullets available. If...

    M1A vs Ar-10, am I too infatuated with the M1A?

    Re: M1A vs Ar-10, am I too infatuated with the M1A? Good advice from SHOOTER45. Shoot what you want and what you can afford. I own numerous bolt guns, M1As and AR weapons. I keep the M1As around because I love shooting them and for the sentimental value. Of all three weapon styles they...

    Range Report .260 video from yesterday.

    Re: .260 video from yesterday. Couple things, first, your shot group is pretty good for the distance considering new rifle/load combo and your shooting platform. Get off the vehicle, as stated above its not optimum. Running your bipod off the roof doesn't allow you to load them. Either put...

    can't close/ tight bolt.

    Re: can't close/ tight bolt. 4 times fired brass likely needs to be trimmed to length. After you heed the advice above make sure your case length is within spec. Jet

    260 pressure issues

    Re: 260 pressure issues Remnar I don't have an answer or help for you but I can relate since I recently experienced a similar problem. I had almost the same issue 2 weeks ago at a match. I shoot the same rifle/caliber (minus the can) as you and have used the below load for a few hundred...

    Shot my best groups ever today...have a question

    Re: Shot my best groups ever today...have a question Very nice shooting. Hornady's 8th Edition Reloading Manual puts both your loads in the 2300-2400fps range. Certainly, all barrels are different but this gives you an idea of what you are getting. At the distances you are shooting stick...

    22-250 for f class match

    Re: 22-250 for f class match No help for you yet. I am having my 22-250 Sendero rebarreled with a 8.5 twist Brux barrel. Faster twist will let me shoot the heavier bullets. I don't shoot F class but I want to use it in local 600yd matches. Should pick the gun up in mid September. Like...

    BARRETT M107A1 is it worth it ?

    Re: BARRETT M107A1 is it worth it ? I have them at work, like shooting them, but would never spend that much for one. I like hitting engine block size targets at 1500 meters but sub .5 MOA is what interests me and the 107 was not built for that. Hog
