  1. 30-06 barrel length

    In my youth I went a little magnum wild, I have a 358 Norma Magnum with a 30" tube. Way too much cartridge! But it still shoots sub moa and is fun to play with.
  2. 30-06 barrel length

    I dug into this and I'm suggesting powders between Winchester 760 and Reloader 22 in burn rate depending on bullett weight and barrel. The throat cutting issues exists with a custom 06 as well as a 30 magnum. To be accurate I'd need to start the process over again since the evolution of...
  3. 30-06 barrel length

    That's gotta have some recoil.
  4. 30-06 barrel length

    Depending on the bullet weight and use. I'll do some research and post back. A lighter weight like 168 used for longer distances would require a different powder than a 190+ grain for elk and bear. In the past I've done well with the lighter weights with a burn rate around Winchester 760. The...
  5. 30-06 barrel length

    In my opinion a custom 30-06 for me would have a 26" tube and a custom load and I wouldn't have a 30 magnum.
  6. Who else is bothered?

    That does not mean that there are enough buyers to generate profit at the level the manufacturer wants nor the accuracy level the general public is willing to pay for. It's a numbers game.
  7. Who else is bothered?

    It's possible that the true match quality ammunition market is too small to bother with.
  8. What do you hate the most?

    To be honest the thing that just make my farts stink is that while being retired, I just can't put together enough time in one block to process in its entirety an 800 round count of brass!!! I got 30 carbine and 223 that I use in volume enough to have need of a ready to load reserve. WTF! I...
  9. Media Hysteria Over Bolt-Action Rifles

    I have 5 of them.
  10. Can a rifle zero a given factory load well, but at 500 yards throw rounds all over?

    Short answer, YES! Long answer, I have 2 rifles in 223 and 1 in 556.45, one rifle is a breakopen for training the grandkids, one is a serious varmint rifle on a Howa 1500 varmint action. The third, a 5.56x45 is a serious 1990's SPR on a Colt A2 HBAR, in LE/Delta configuration. The difference...

  12. Tech assistance?

    Good for you!!!
  13. Tech assistance?

    That can cause a bottle neck. Ouch! I've had those issues makes communication and logistics sticky.
  14. Tech assistance?

    Quite frankly I didn't retire because I physically could no longer do the work. I retired because people, especially highly educated people kept getting dumber by the moment. One of my favorites is this, I talked to a guy at your shop 4 days ago and he said that you'd be right out. Who was he...
  15. Tech assistance?

    What not have an alternative supplier?
  16. Tech assistance?

    These kinds of people are easy to get rid of, a refund and a notice that if you return, I'll trespass you! The most common problem for service is the contact point blaming the assistant for missing the message. I just had that two weeks ago. For three days her personal assistant didn't check...
  17. Tech assistance?

    No CRAP! You must shop for service!! Today they have a phone, an email and a text message that they ignore. When I ran my business, I kept my phone with me and answered it even when 100' in the air! Believe me my billing rates reflected that. For nearly the last 20 years I ran my business, I...

  19. Another tuner target

    Ok after some thought, 26 if it holds for 5, cold bore 5 shot groups. Ok, it's the hunter/other past profession in me, a rifle that doesn't shoot on target cold bore is like being married to a woman that not only is a virgin but vows to stay that way! ;);)
