    Federal Primer Production

    Bob Thanks for the insight, must admit though that when you think about a 100 million + order, I would venture to guess that it would be kind of overwhelming to say the least. Forney, At those prices they can keep em, I will continue using CCI BRs until I can lay my hands on some Federals...

    Federal Primer Production

    Bob, What you hearing, is half true, Federal won a 100 million primer contract for the goverment, so all thier production went to filling that. They also were not making much civilian ammo, as thier popular 22 LR bulk packs of 550 virtually disappeared for about 6 mos. Well those have started...

    Hornady production

    Hornady usually keeps up with demand very well, they may not be headed to ali's gun shop in Iraq, but they probably went to the military. Its been at least 6 mos since I was able to find Federal match primers, reason given was that federal got a contract fo 100 million primers from the military...

    One day load is fine,next day the bolt needs to be beat to extract

    Worker, First off, I didnt have a problem with your 55gr loadings, sounds like a good load, just havent used WW-760 in years. I have found that load in 7 diffrent manuals and other resources. As I dont own a 22.250AI I can only compare it either my 22.250s , or to that of my Swift. The Swift...

    One day load is fine,next day the bolt needs to be beat to extract

    Joe S, you are right on case capacity of the 22.250 AI, it is almost but not quite the same case capacity of the 220 swift, in fact its design I do believe was to put the 22.250 in the same velocity realm as the Swift. So good call. Worker is getting velocitys out of a 26" bbl using 80gr pills...

    .257WBY Ramshot Magnum Load Data

    Artist, Ramshot magnum lies directly inbetween H1000 and RL25 on the burn rate, so you should be able to use those for a starting point. Read about your wby mag, and at the velocities you want to push a 115gr, it will be comparable to the Lazzeroni 6.5 (257) Scramjet. Say goodbye to your...

    Newbie here with a couple of newbie questions.

    Doug Trust your smith, for the twist rate, caliber, and bullet weight you shouldnt have any problems. I dont own a 6x47 lapua, but have an old varmint in 243 Win caliber with a 1 in 12 twist. Does not shoot anything over 80gr worth a hoot, but the 55 - 80gr it does very well. In fact it really...

    What about Federal nickle plated brass

    Yes, the original purpose was to prevent corrosion. Leather tends to attract moisture, pistol round carried in a leather holster would corrode, and become unsightly in a duty belt, not to mention that once corrosion starts on brass it is pretty much ruined for a firearm. Rifle brass that is...

    Anybody know about this Remington 700 stock from Bob's Gunshop in Arkansas?

    Jackson You are right. The stock on the top is a Boyds, Its not "Walking Varminter" , rather "Target-Varminter". They quit making them, and again you are right on them cutting back. If you do a search on thier site, the only varmint style stocks are for a Left hand winchester...
