I finally found some of the 168 Hybrids to work with. Found a load with IMR4064 that got me to 2915 fps in my 28" barreled F-TR rifle with no signs of pressure. Two 5 shot groups at 200 yds (longest range close to me) today averaged 1.15" and I haven't adjusted seating depth yet. With a...
I shot this load development today through my new 308 Win. These are shots 11 through 34 on my new rifle. I started with 168 SMKs with IMR4064. I pulled one shot on the bottom left target - lower left hole. Where would you go from here?
I have a CZ 455 Varmint in the Boyd's Tacticool stock. It shoots fairly well in the stock configuration, but I have already added pillars and plan to do a bedding job as well. I'm thinking of a new project where I can shoot targets or vermin off my back deck, but I need it to be quiet (I live...
Here is my new CZ 455 Tacticool. So far I have installed the DIP adjustable sear and put a lighter trigger spring; DIP mag well and 25 MOA scope base. I mounted a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 in Burris signature zee rings and attached the Harris bipod. I'm ready to shoot. One thing I noticed is the...
I just wanted to ask you guys about your favorite F-TR loads. I have shot my .223 AR for the first year with 24.3 gr Re15/Hornady 75 gr HPBT. They run about 2690 FPS out of my 18.5" barrel. I was competing in 300 yd F class events and did OK. I wanted to shoot with what I had for the first...
I'm building a .308 that will primarily be used for target shooting and mid-range F-TR competitions. I just picked up a trued left hand Rem 700 action and am trying to decide on a barrel, stock, and trigger. I'm thinking a 28" barrel in 1:11" or 1:11.25" twist with a medium palm contour. I...
I am looking for a new varmint rifle and really want to try out the Tikka T3s since they offer left handed rifles. I saw on their Finnish and Australian websites that they offer a Varmint Stainless model that I really like. I tried to find one in the US to no avail, so I called up Beretta USA...
I picked up some 75 AMAX to develop a load for in my 5.56. I know they cannot be loaded for mag length, but I want to try them in some mid-range F-class matches. Does anyone have any recommendations for COAL or distance from the lands? Thanks.
I have an older Winchester Model 70 in .243 and want to build an accurate mid-range target rifle mostly for F class shooting. I would go out and buy a Rem 700 action, but that would just cost more money. What are your thoughts on building a target rifle in .308 off of my current action? It is...
I've been reloading for about 6 months and I need some help from you guys that know much more than me. I only reload for 223/5.56 and 6.8 SPC right now, but will eventually reload for some bolt actions. I have a few loads that seem to work pretty well, but I need some help with my reloading...
Has anyone correlated neck brass thickness to the amount of time it takes to properly anneal a case? I know there can be many variable such as torch settings and how close the flame is to the neck, but I wanted to bounce the question off of people that know much more about reloading than me...
I'm new here from South Carolina. I'm interested in shooting mid- and long-range F class as well as shooting and reloading in general. I have a few bolt guns and ARs but nothing like some of the guns I've seen on here. Hopefully I will be able to contribute as I gain experience.
