I have 2 222Rems, one is just a factory rifle but is by far my most accurate factory rifle. not completely stock has been bedded and trigger tweaked. My other is a full on custom. I did quite a bit of load development for both of them, the most accurate powder in both of my rifles is N130. In...

Thanks RJM, I'm going to give it a try

Al, Living in Washington I don't know how much you have shot with Lou ??? Lou is truly one of the great guys of the sport, he has done more to advance benchrest than anybody I can think of; powder, scopes, bullets, annealers etc. One thing is guaranteed is that Lou will show up with something...

I hate to be the one to dig up an old thread, but the AMP is $1400 now plus all the accessories. was wondering if others here have tried this salt bath method ???? for literally 1/10th the money is it a viable alternative ???? seems like it would be more consistent than any of the torch methods.

I agree Ronnie makes some fine bullets

the match was the 29th & 30th

Just noticed that Raton has the same dates, I'm sure it will hurt attendance at both:(

I swear by N130 for my 222's, when I first bought N130 it was only available in 2LB jugs it was 1996 vintage. I was running low a few years ago and could not find it anywhere, In 2016 Powder Valley had some in stock so I bought what they had it was all 1LB jugs from 2011 (where was it hiding for...

When I went to the match last month I didn't book a motel until 3 days before the match, most were sold out but I got a room at the Mesa Inn 800-491-9657. There are at least 20 Hotels or motels on Horizon Drive that is closer time wise to the range than staying down town or farther to the west...

Thanks Gene, I have tried a bunch of different things but never really considered a tuner (old Browning Boss nightmares I guess). I have noticed more and more of them at the match's, will have to give it a try.

have a 6ppc as most of us do, I have been struggling to get it to shoot as well as I like. In March I put on a new Bartlein 1-14" twist barrel .262" neck shooting Cheeks 66gr fb, a light load of N133 by most of you here 27.4gr. have the bullet at just touch. with this combo I have shot the best...

Thanks to Tom Stiner, Dan Dowling, their wives and the rest of the Lands End crew. They put forth a lot of effort to have a great event !!!!

surprised the CUBS match has not been mentioned, starts tomorrow in Springville ,Ut. 9:00 am 32 shooters signed up as of now

I have a couple of 222's, One is a custom 40X that at 100 yards will oft times out shoot my ppc. The other is a light weight varminter. The powder of choice for both is N130

Didn't know if I dared reply to this thread, people on this forum hate AR's. partly because they are not Benchrest gun's and partly because Mike in Co tortured us with AR's for a LONG time before Wilbur pulled the plug on him, my nephew wont get within 10 feet of my AR's thinking he will get...

Jackie, I realize you are correct.......but about 25 years ago a customer tempted me with a trade to get a 222Rem 40X. It was a horrible trade for me but I wanted that 40X so bad. After I got my 40X I realized that the barrel was rusted out from sitting in a cellar for a decade or so, the stock...

On the 40X that I own it is a single shot, every 700 that I have ever seen are repeaters. To me that is an appreciable difference

I have the MOAG built on a McMillan 50 HBR stock with a 36" barrel, only case I found that worked properly was made by SKB. was not a gun case but called a keyboard case. only thing that I found that would work with the 5" stock

PLEASE,PLEASE do this with out speaking any more and post the video !!!!!

I only shoot N130 in my .222's and never thought of it as clean, just that it shoots awesome in my rifles. The lot I have been using was made in 1995. I was running low so when I saw that Powder Valley finally had some in stock I ordered many 1 pound jugs. It is all made in 2011.......where has...
