Welcome to the group! Honestly, I learned to reload from a reloading manual many years ago, along with a bit of mentoring. With a good manual and the multitudes of reloading videos available on youtube, you should be well on your way in no time. The forums on this site also contain lot of good...

First, let me say Thanks for your service to our nation, I appreciate it greatly! Welcome to the Hide! I have owned a Burris scope recently, and it did everything I wanted it to do. You will get better answers to your optics questions here...

Welcome to the Hide! Hope you find a better atmosphere here.

Good morning and Welcome to the Hide! Post your question to the Gunsmithing forum and you will receive better advice than what I can offer. I usually don't hear too many complaints about Tikka's quality. Here's a link to the Gunsmithing forum...

2,698 fps from a 20 inch barrel is pretty hot in my opinion. The fact that FGMM and Prime eject properly without either sticky bolt lift or ejector marks - and have lower velocities would suggest that there is nothing wrong with your chamber or barrel.

Unfortunately, that is a natural charecteristic of salt.

Welcome from Afton, Iowa!

I'm loading the 185 Berger Juggernauts into Remington brass with Remington 9 1/2 primers and 41.7 grains of IMR4064, seated at 2.225" bto. Superb accuracy and velocities of 2480fps from my 20 inch barrel, and 2600 from my 24 inch barrel.

For what it's worth, I'm loading 42.5 grains of IMR4064 with Sierra 175 Matchkings and 180 grain Gamekings. Remington brass, Remington 9 1/2 primers, 2.225 base to ogive. Sub half minute of angle accuracy. This is a max load in my rifle, 2,580fps from my 20 inch Savage barrel.

Old MatchBurner loads and new MatchBurner loads used the same can of powder? Or the same lot?
