Re: TRG-22 or Surgeon AX I have both a TRG in .260 and a Surgeon in .223 with a Krieger barrel and Jewel trigger on an aics chasis with Viperskins. Not apples to apples, but a reasonable basis for comparison. Both are great guns, the fit and finish of each is flawless and the actions are...

Re: 260 Loaded Neck Diameter? I am getting .294 with both my handloaded Lapua brass in 123 and 139 scenars and Corbon factory 142 smk. I use the .290 bushing with Lapua brass and get an outside neck diameter of .2918 average of 10 random measurements with both my calipers and and precision...

Re: Hand Loading for Long Range 5: inspect & tips Tresmon, thanks for the great series. As someone new to reloading, it is really helpful to have all the pictures along with the instruction. One question, I am limited to 200 yards at my range, is that enough distance to find an accuracy...

Re: New member, new gun Those are great groups, with practice I hope to get better, but I doubt I will ever get that good! My best 5 shot group with the Tikka .223 is .335 with Fiocchi 77gr. Exacta ammo, which in my gun shoots better than FGGM 77gr. I have never, however, shot 4 sub .5 moa...
