I'm using .003 total in 2 rifles, and .002 in a third and it shoots just fine with it.

From last weekend?

The extra case capacity of the BR isn't needed. We can already drive 68gr bullets faster than they need to go to get the best accuracy from them.

I measured case volume of H2O by seating a bullet in a fired case and filling it with water. The best way I found was to use a Little Lindy Worm Blower. It's a fishing accessory that has an angled needle tip. The trick is to put a drop of food coloring in the water to keep air bubbles from...

This is a strange situation indeed, but if the RSO that took everyone's money and collected scores was still running it, I would find another range. If the match was erased and the guy in charge is still running it, that's a problem for me.

All of that is just old technology. Nobody uses those Sako cases or H322 anymore, and back then Neck Sizing was the norm. Even new Lapua brass is improved over that old stuff. You can do all of that if you just want to play at the range, but in competitive circles it is light years behind.

I have one of the carbon Tipton rods, but haven't gotten to use it yet.

I have found Flitz on a patch/nylon brush to be the most effective/least aggressive carbon cleaner I have ever used. It works better than JB, and is less abrasive than Iosso by a bit, and not even in the same league as Rem 40x Bore Cleaner.

I would use a bushing the same size as my bore, like .236 for a 6mm.

Finger nail polish remover is Acetone and so is PVC Primer.

I ran into those very same issues when I did my cases. I neck turn for everything, so this procedure wasn't new to me, and I had done my 30BR brass so I didn't anticipate having much difficulty. Before I was done, I had to resharpen the tool and polish the mandrel to keep it working right. My...

Out of curiosity I went and searched ebay to see if anyone had some of these editions available. Lucked out as someone was selling a full brand new set. I find it interesting that some of the things mentioned in that are still relevant, some have been surpassed, and some old wives tales that...

I'm doing the same thing for 2 different rifles, and it's been a challenge. Rifle 1 is a 2 lug BAT Model B, and the 2nd is a 3 Lug BAT. Both rifles came with Dies. Redding Body dies, and a Bushing neck die. I also have 2 Harrell's FL dies, a "0" and a #4. With this many dies and adjustments and...

I just wanted to update this thread. After searching for another stock to get this rifle up and going before the year was over and having no luck at all, I was able to have a local woodworker make some changes that I wanted and give it a shot. To recap, the buttstock was crooked, offset from...

Yeah, I have bought from them twice and had no issues at all.

It's a variable that if someone with a tunnel was really interested, he might find some gains. Unless you're having a serious ignition problem it's probably not worth doing more than just speculating on it. Heavier springs will make more vibration, and so will a heavier pin, but it will also...

That's why I bought 5000 at a time. It was 42.50 flat fee no matter the quantity.

I didn't do a specific development with them, but tested against 5 other primers they were 3rd best. I liked them enough to buy 10K. Even though they fit tight, I had no problems seating them with the Sinclair tool.

I have some in the small rifle version. They fit very tight, and work well. The only negative I heard was that the really high loads in 6PPC will have them pierce, but they work really well with .30BR loads. I ran 29.1grs of LT=32 with them and had no problems, and that's a rather stiff load of...

Thanks for all the replies and advice guys! Since I have a mix of conventional buttstocks and flat bottomed stocks, I'm going to get another bag that will work with them both. The flat bottom stocks are both wood, so they could be modified, but if I get a glass stock in the same style, I will be...
