New Years resolution

Ignore "claims" that are contrary to my 50+ years experience of hunting, shooting, and reloading and letting those claims get in my head. Instead let performance at the range and in the field give me the right answers.

That's not to say that I'm closed minded to learning something new - case in point is changing solvents from Shooter's Choice to Bore Tech products - significantly better performance without the odor. One of the best decisions I ever made and a "claim" that rang true at least for me.
 
This is sacrilege around here I know, but I'm jumping from the .260 to the 6.5 Creedmoor for 2019. I ordered the reamer last night *ghasp*.

I've had a ton of .260 barrels/rifles, and I cannot get this freaking round to shoot consistently; which isn't a problem for any other round I've loaded for.

Besides, I gave up drinking in 2018. Bring on the jokes; my body is ready. :)

Welcome to being ostracized, cursed at (under their breath) We own them just to piss off everyone else. :)
 
Mike A,took a severe "widow maker" heart attack on 6/26/18 to get the bucket of KFC out from under my arm.....

Wanna lose some weight AND make your heart happy? Lose the salt. Start reading labels and get rid of sodium,the pounds will start dropping.

For resolutions,going another year without a "new" 6.5(have a Steyr 6.5X54).... and keep hammering rounds downrange,and into chest cavities with girlie 7-08's. Got a new 223 cast varmint blaster setup as my '19 rig. And am collecting parts for a 22-250 cast rig for '20...... bout 85% there,looking for a scope,and may end up building one.
