Listening to the Hornady folks and reading the Barnes data, the relief rings on their mono bullets reduces barrel cooper fouling. What has Nosler done with their E-tips that they don't need relief rings.? Thanks

Had my M48 barrel cut and threaded at 20 inches. Now the suppressor balances well and is not overly long carrying in the field. First range trip was using a variety of powders, looking for velocity in the shortened barrel. Bullet choice is 150 gr E-tip Initial powders were 4350, 4831...

Barnes's data show impressive speed with Ramshot Hunter. Ramshot doesn't list in their own data (electronic and verified with phone call) I found 160 PT with 58 gr of Hunter. Was going to substitute a 160 AB. Anyone used? input compared to H4831 and 7828 (my stand bye) Cutting my M48 to 20...

My 17 inch Tikka barrel is back. Shot some great groups, now working on finding the right combination of bullet and powder Stuff loads of Big Game group well. 120 gr BT @ 2825 140 gr BT @ 2700 Anticipated the velocity drop, so not worried about that as the rifle handles great with the can...

Having a Tikka 7mm-08 cut and threaded at 17 inches. Want to play with a short barrel with a suppressor. I understand some cartridges benefit from AI (280AI') and some it just doesn't matter. Planning on losing about 25 FPS with the barrel cut. What about trying to offset this with an AI...

Really nice Winchester 100 in 284 Metal and wood in really nice condition. I have owned for years and shot it once. It was a sentimental purchase years ago, but beyond that now Will include mount and rings and one box of factory ammo. The scope pictured is NOT included. $900 shipped

Anybody have some 6.5 cal 130 gr ABs that need a better home. Promise to take them backpacking in October.

Midway has seconds of these for a decent price. Looking for a range bullet for 300-400 yds practice in my 280AI. Have a 150 E-tip load for hunting that shoots great. Any other "cheap" 7mm bullets for moderate range work people suggest. Accurate and cheap preferred.

What do people think...... Was out looking for spring bears....went to a place where I know there are bears, water down below and timber behind. Lots of grass along the closed dirt road. I hiked upon the backside hill and was 95 to 160 yds above the area I was watching. It was a 35 degree...

Over the years, like many other, I have owned a lot of rifles in a variety of calibers. Some of the rifles have changed, but there has been some consistency in calibers. But never a rifle in 7 mm mag, not even briefly. I recognize the ballistics are great for a do all rifle. Now days, my...

I picked up this rifle a few months ago. M48 in 300 WSM. The stock appears to be a carbon fiber, but NOT from Nosler. I called and spoke with the Nosler people. Stock weighs 24-25 ozs. There are no manufacture markings on the stock. Anyone have an idea who might have made it? Great...

Have long admired Nosler rifles. Recently pick up a couple. I didn't realize that the M48 in 280AI came in both magnum and sporter barrels. I had only seen magnum. Was surprised today coming across one in sporter contour. About 1/2 lb lighter.

Can someone get me in the ball park for 200 gr E-tips in a 338-06 AI I have a couple hundred to play with. Thanks

Switched 280 AI rifles and mistakenly gave all my 280 AI brass with the rifle I sold. Seems Nosler 280AI brass is hit or miss in quality. Seems other brands are hard to find. I am going to fire form some R-P brass to get started. Wondering about getting some Lapua brass and forming 280AI...

I have 90 plus unfired Nosler 6.5-284 Norma brass that are unfired $90 shipped in small flat rate

Pulling this out of the back of the safe. Had plans for an African trip, but never came together. Set up the rifle, fired a few rounds. Still have a full box of ammo left over Winchester M70 African in 375 H&H There African models are controlled feeding Spotless condition Round count - you...

I have a hunger for a Sako Mannlicher in a larger bore. Handled one a few years ago in 338 WM and is was a sweat little package. Spent too much time thinking it over and when I came back the next week, it was gone. Causally shopping for one. I would image the recoil of full load 33WM with a...

Worked into a deal and ended up with a Thompson Encore barrel in 338-06 AI. Came with fire formed brass and dies and a few hand loads. Looked around here and found load data. Just finished making some 210 PT with RL-15. Will have to wait until next weekend for range time, but the 338-06AI...

Pulled out of the back of a safe, a Tikka 695 in 280 Rem. Has been there for a while, when I purchased it, it certainly looked new and I have not fired it. Trying to think, if there is something to make? Already have 338Fed, 338 WM and 35 Whelen covered. Either leave as a 280 (already have...

Found this in a Hole in the Wall gun shop. Belonged to a buddy of the owner who passed away. Remington 700 BDL Mountain in 280 Rem. The Mountain has the slimmer stock and barrel. Produced in 1982 Clean rifle, good deal and happy new owner. Put a Leupold 2.5-8 on top. Sigh in some 150 gr...
