H4198 has been one of the harder ones to find, for sure. It's proven hard to beat in a 30BR. You've got options but finding 4198 may be your best bet for now and later, so stock up if you can. A faster lot of 4198 would be hitting the lottery

30lb/ft(360in/lb) is pretty common too and of course very near your 350in/lb number.

I shoulda thought about just the title and intent of your post and I didn't.

I think we mostly agree Joe. I was just pointing out that a lot of shooters have gone back to a 6mm when there's no scoring advantage to the bigger bullet hole. Not promoting either. It was to make the same point, that apparently lots of people agree with. No scoring advantage, which would you...

and... ...and Ferris Pindell said his 81 gr boat tails from a 12 twist PPC was "like cheating." I don't know if I'd go that far but if your bbl shoots the 80 class bullets well, it has a small bc advantage. TIFWIW because, I think there is more difference to be found by shooting what the gun...

I've been shooting various 12 twist 6 Grendels for a few years now in UBR matches. They will shoot 68s too, so shoot what shoots best for you but I've been very competitive shooting both, 68s and 80s. It's been very good to me. The bc advantage is real but small. If it's competitive at 100...

test target The bullet does follow the path set by the bbl's vibration pattern, no doubt. As for positive comp, I'm a believer and the science supports that but I think we have to think it through deeper. As in, how much pc is attainable by simply adding an adjustable weight to the end of the...

So, if you think the bore needs to be tighter at the crown, I'd suggest a close fitting clamp on design and affect the bore diameter with torque? Nothing else has been quantified, so why not? One way absolutely adds stress to the bbl(squeezes) and the other other might or might not relieve ANY...

^^^This^^^. Actually, I've found that EVERY joint in the system does move at high enough frequencies. As long as they are repeatable, I don't see that one way is better than another, on a rf. But if I can do away with a joint(variable) in the system, I prefer to do just that. My tuners only...

What else can I say....? I just think this thread has gone an untended direction when it went to Schuetzen. Not that it's irrelevant, but it's just a very different discipline than BR. Yes, I think rest position makes a difference. In fact, to again take it in a different direction(kinda)...

This right here. It can matter a little or a lot but you gotta test it with your gun and setup. Even how hard the bags are can matter. I tend to run my bags a little softer than some but it seems to cause less problems than being too hard. It's just one of those things you should test to see...

Yes. Many times it boils down to what the tool is used for. I use a lot of cheapo calipers and have had good luck with them, FOR WHAT I USE THEM FOR. Calipers are not and were never intended to be a precision measuring device. If you want that, use a high quality micrometer. Cheap digital...

Grind them..and always use the same place on the chuck to tighten the chuck. Of course this is only on a live chuck. Independent chuck doesn't matter unless you're worried about it making up the part it's chucked onto. In that case, indicate a say 1.250 part into the very back of the jaws and...

Al, I don't agree with everything that anybody says. I don't recall having any problems with you, whether we agreed or not. The only time I get upset is when somebody makes it personal, which shouldn't happen. I can only think of one such arsehat and he's famous on various forums and he...

It takes everything, no doubt...but overall, I'll take a solid but mediocre gun that never has the trigger pulled at the wrong time over a super gun that gets the trigger pulled in multiple switches. It all matters, though. The bigger the match, the more likely you are to be shooting against...

We are blessed to have SEB and other very good, high quality rests available. After watching a video where a guy copied a T-Rex rest and posted the process on another forum, well, it gave me the opportunity to see how that particular rest design is different from the standard gib setup that SEB...

I use the xbr in a 6 Grendel with 80's at about 3250fps. Pretty hot, so work up to that but it shoots very well

It'll fit nicely in my stash if you don't want it. It's a little faster than varget or h4895

Well, I'm only going to say that buying something because it's what someone else uses, with likely a different chamber, is worth just that...and that if you don't know where and why the problem is presenting itself, it's a matter of measuring... and we're just not on the same page yet. At least...

Narrow those adjustments way down, if you haven't already. By far the most common mistake by those that move tuners at all is moving them way too far at a time. Try to establish group shape and size between as close as possible to perfect tune to as absolutely out of tune as you can make it...
