  1. Nosler AccuBond LR

    piie, I have a Win Model 70 w/ a Pac-nor barrel.

  2. Nosler AccuBond LR

    Use them in 264 WM, 256 Newton and 6.5x55. All of them like to jump. .05-.1 . I usually start them at .05 and move out.

  3. Aggregate Definition as used in BR..... History

    sounds like the guys that brag on their 3 shot groups rather than 5 or 10 or 20 shot groups. :confused:o_O:rolleyes::p

  4. Texas or Wyoming?

    Native Texan here. Raised in Bell County, about 60 miles north of Austin. I've noticed when folks move to Texas they seem to think it ends around I-35. No idea why. Kerrville is getting expensive to live compared to some other towns of similar size. Folks from Austin and San Antonio are pushing...

  5. Do you start load development with virgin brass?

    With Lapua, I start load development right out of the box. This load in my 6.5x55 SE was developed with new, unfired, Lapua brass. I hope DaddyMac is correct and the groups will shrink when I get to once-fired loading :D

  6. Elk with a 6.5 Creedmoor

    22Dasher hit the response. Hornady's factory stuff will work and work well. Especially the ELD-X loadings. Friend took a nice 6x6 at 350 yards on the run with his 6.5Cm. Said the elk stumbled at the shot and face-planted within 10-15 yards. Entrance behind the near leg and exited in front of the...

  7. End of barrel life:(

    First of all, I'm not a competitive shooter, so I don't use up a barrel nearly as fast as some here do. I do have a first-year production 700 25-06 that with my reloads shot .5" groups with some consistency. For years, it was my only 'big game' rifle - taking my first two elk and a couple of...

  8. Powder/ammo storage distance from gunsafe

    Having just gone through a garage fire with only 2 sets of powders in the garage (a total of only 12 lbs of powder), keeping it separate is a good idea. Currently, mine is stored in original containers on a shelf in a closet where the gun safe is located. All of my reloading is done in the...

  9. Amazon support for NRA foundation

    I've been 'donating' to the NRA Foundation for the last 5-6 years. Always liked peeling some fruities in Calif. to help support the 2A

  10. Who made Herter's 264 Win Mag brass?

    Sako has an ammunition plant underground at their factory in Rhiimaki. At least they did when I visited in 2004. Most of what they make goes to the Finnish military. Some is sold on the market there in Finland and in Sweden over the counter. The ammo I hunted with on that trip was 300 WSM 180...

  11. Lets talk Revolvers

    When I turned 21 WAAAAY back when, first purchase was a Model 19 6". It's taken deer, pigs, one turkey and a mess of rattlers. Last handgun purchase was a Model 57 that someone had abused and put away. I got it cerakoted and new grips to replace the cracked one's that were on it. Sweet shooting...

  12. 28 Nosler & Reloader 33

    I use RL33 in a 264 WM and ran my own temp sensitivity on that one. Here in Texas, we get lows in the 20's and summer highs in the 100-110 fairly common. For MY rifle in MY loadings, I came up with about a .86 degree change per degree increase from 40 degrees to 98. Please note, this WILL vary...

  13. Extreme Powders

    I'm in the same camp as xswanted. I shoot what works. Being in Texas, I've noticed a bit more sensitivity than some do as our temps may range from the 20's during hunting season up to over 100 degrees in the summer. I do notice some changes in velocity with most powders but some are better than...

  14. Reloading room carnedge

    After years and years of my reloading being a rather haphazard method of sorting and storage, I finally put up shelving to store dies and books and bullets just above the bench. Everything worked just fine. I kept primers on shelving units next to the bench and powders inside the house. I had...

  15. Slo Mo video of projectile yawing in flight

    Definitely an interesting video. Now, what about all of those 'brush-busting' rounds folks claim? ;)

  18. Credit Card Breach

    Used my Company CC to get gas last Friday. On Sunday, I received an email asking if I had tried to purchase gas at a ZMart in Las Vegas. Emailed them 'no' and got a call from them. Waiting on my new CC. Old one went in the shredder. This is the 2nd time in 10 years my Company card was hit. Last...

  20. Experienced advice in Cerakote vs DuraCoat barreled action finishes

    I can't speak on Duracoat as I've never used it. I can tell you that Cerakote protected two of my rifles in a fire last summer. Though the fire wasn't on the same side of the garage as the safe, in fact is was on the corner catty-corner (or kitty-corner depending on the part of the country...
