    What caliber change options are available on the AI .308 action with a barrel swap?

    Basically, Any short action that uses the .308 bolt face(.473). No magnums. That would require a different bolt. Check out this thread http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/52833-caliber-choices-comparison-applications.html There are others that are not on that...

    Black Hole Weaponry Barrel Review - 308 Build

    Dta is using 1/8 twist in 308 16" barrels. That is due to the velocity being lower out of the short barrel. That does not mean 1/8 is better for all 308 barrels. Shooting heavy bullets out of short barrels with fast twists is not the way to get to 1k yards. Sure, it can be done but that's not...

    77smk loads

    24 gr varget shoots great out of my dads 1:8 16" barrel. It shoots good out of my 18" noveske also.

    6.5 creedmoor bild , What barre???

    All bartlein and kriegers are cut rifled. The criterion that Fulton sells is a button rifled barrel. Criterion is owned by krieger and produces button rifled barrels.

    Ideal .50BMG setup

    I didn't see it mentioned but I used the k&m trimmer. It was easy, maybe not as fast a giraud but definitely cheaper. It trims, chamfers and deburrs at the same time. I would usually load about 30 at a time and it worked great. I also like their primer pocket uniformed and flash hole reamer...

    6.5 creedmoor bild , What barre???

    Thanks. That is the only group I shot at paper at that distance. I usually shoot steel. I normally can keep 3-4 out of 5 shots on 8" round plate. The load that day was 140gr Berger hybrids 42.0 gr H4350 Hornady brass Fed 210m primer 2.810" The factory hornady ammo is excellent as well.

    6.5 creedmoor bild , What barre???

    I have this barrel. It is a hammer. I've shot 8" 5 shot group at 1000yds with it. 3 of those were 2.75". I'm sure it could do better. I am the limiting factor. [/URL]

    Would an AX.308 be good for me?

    If you can afford it I say go for it. I never thought I'd get one but I sold my ar50 and .50 reloading stuff and was able to afford it. I got mine a few months ago and love it. For bench and prone it's great. I just took mine out last night and shot some loads not developed for the gun using...

    Remington 700 5R .308 milspec HORRIBLE ACCURACY!!!!!

    You have only shot one type of ammo so far? The 7.62 fgmm is not the same as the .308fgmm. Get some other ammo, try fgmm or black hills. Everybody wants to blame the gun when it doesn't shoot .2. Remember, it's not a custom gun. I'm sure it can shoot better than 1moa if you find what it likes...

    Double Check my OCW results

    It's hard to figure out group locations when it's so far from your poa with no grid. You should make sure your scope is zeroed before you start the test.

    Putting together reloading setup

    Definitely get a headspace bushing gauge or rcbs precision mic Primer pocket uniformer I wouldn't worry about a neck turning tool. You probably won't notice the difference in your groups. If you have the time and extra money then give it a try. In a rifle with a factory chamber and if you use...

    6xc dies need help

    Try whidden gun works. They make really nice dies. They had my 6 creedmoor dies in stock. Took a couple days to get here. I haven't used them yet but they're just as nice or nicer then redding. They came with a shoulder bump bushing too.

    Does anybody have a 260 rem trajectory chart??

    It doesn't cost anything online. You can buy the app for phone or iPad though.

    Thoughts on a 6.5 grendel long range precision rifle for my daughter?

    I think the Grendel would be a great round for your daughter. It gets similar ballistics to .308 but with much less recoil. Mine has a 24" heavy barrel with no brake. The recoil is not bad. The gun is heavy though. Will she need to carry it? You could go lighter and put a brake on it. If you...

    6CM vs 6XC

    Oh and make sure you are clear on the name. A 6CM is the 6mm Competition Match, a cartridge based on the .243, that was around before the 6 creedmoor

    6CM vs 6XC

    Have you searched yet? http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/sniper-hide-gunsmithing/192777-6mm-creedmoor-vs-6xc.html http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/156435-6xc-vs-6mm-creedmoor.html I chose 6 creedmoor. But I don't think there is a wrong answer

    Help with 6 Creedmoor?

    I just recieved my whidden dies for 6 creed. They appear very nice, on par or better than redding/Forster. I have not used them yet so I can't vouch for functionality yet. They came with a shoulder bump bushing for calipers also which was a nice bonus. Gap didnt have the hornady dies when I...
