If I set them .010 off the lands there is not much bullet being held by the case (around 1 mm). Is that safe or ok to load them that...

    155 Hornady Palma Match?

    Anybody shot it and how does it compare to handloads of 155 grain palma match or 155 scenars? Don't know much about reloading or anything so don't bust my balls if this is a stupid question! About to do a GAP 18.5 or 20 with a Bartlein or Rock barrel at a 1:11.25 twist. Will this twist work...

    Bought a 100 bullets from a member here sold as 155gr Lapua Scenars from the groupbuy. I wasnt in on the group buy but unless it was for seconds I think I got screwed.

    Tomorrow my M1a supermatch will be here, it's got a 1 in 10 twist barrel. Most of my shooting with it will be at my 700 yd range here at the farm, and hopefully get in a 600 yd high-power match now and then. The only .308 bullets I keep around are the 155 Lapua Scener, and the other day I...

    155 .308 A-Max REAL BC?

    I'm glad we have someone like Bryan Litz testing for real BCs, but I'm still toying with the A-Max as a usually more available option to the SMKs, the Lapuas, and the spendy Bergers. What I *really* like is he's giving us average G1 BCs so we can use something other than Sierra's software and...

    155 gr Lapua in 1-10 Barrel?

    I've been shooting 175 smk's in my stock Savage. I would like to try the 155gr Scenars but thought I read that my barrel might be to fast to shoot them well. Is there any truth to this? Has anyone been running them through a 308 Savage?
