Building a new 6 SLR

[Nvreloader]

Guys,
I quoted the WRONG info for the neck diameter, for the reamer spec's,
the correct diameter is .272",
with a .265" Redding neck bushing... in use now.

I need to use my glasses more on the fine print.
and the memory bank is going also, I think.

So I'll have to turn the brass down, more than I thought,
some where around .011 -.012" thickness.

I'll get one of each of these sizes in neck bushings,
.266",.267", .268" and .269" also.

Tia,
Don

Im running a 272 neck, turned lapua brass down to 0.10" and using a .265 bushing (with coated bullets). I thought It might be a bit much but this thing is hammering running like it is. Im currently on my 6 firing with this batch of brass.

First outing with my new bipod on the rifle. This is a LR steel shooter/LR hunting rifle and not n BR gun.

Played with the BC a little and shot the last one in the center and called it good.

Everytime I open my safe this rifle just jumps into my hands.

Funny how that "last one in the center" impact splatter looks identical to the splatter that's painted over in the prior pic?

And, where did the writing go between shots?

Nice shooting and a VERY pretty rifle! Its just that 2+2 don't equal 4 in those pics. Maybe you confused the order in which you shot???

I painted over the last one in the middle before taking the pic of the 4shots, seeing how the one in the middle wasnt part of the group that I shot and then wrote next to the 4 shots. Nothing to do with math just not a group as I went down to the target to check before shooting the last one.

Very nice, If I can do half of what you showed, I'll be tickled pink.

Thank you for the info.
I am slowly learning, I think.
