There is a youtube video where a guy shoots several shots over a Oehler and a Shooting Chrony set up in series. The averages between the two instruments were very similar, but there were discrepancies of 50 fps and more between the two chronos on individual shots. That got me to thinking, and I...

I betcha it comes in right at about 0.025 inch.

In case you kinda take it for granted, you have a great place to shoot there, Guy!

I'd probably go for one of those if it could be had in 10mm.

How about a 115-grain Accubond in 6.5 caliber?

Unless you're crimping, it won't matter much at all.

That Co-Ax is hard to beat for loading nice straight ammo. There ARE a few accessories it doesn't mesh well with, though.

The .25s and .27s take an undeserved rap these days based on the lack of high-BC bullets in those calibers. They kill at "moderate" ranges with no less authority than any other caliber bullet of similar sectional density. If you need to shoot deer at 600 or 800 yards, use a high-BC .30-cal or...

I've found that concentration on trigger technique is my weakness at the bench.

Word on the street is that LT-30 is magic with 40-grain bullets. I KNOW LT-32 is with 50s.

I'm a little late to the party, but this looks to me like just rechambering to .30-06 AI would be the most economical of effective solutions.

I've found that it's VERY easy to develop bad habits, and one of the worst is fighting the rear bag to get the crosshair where you want it. Getting that all lined up first and then pulling in carefully behind the rifle works for me too.

Good points made in that thread, but the best one IMO is the one about controlling all the other variables. Play around with QuicklOAD a bit and you will see that case volume variations can easily negate the effort to weigh down to the kernel. Here's a post a made on another forum illustrating...

I dunno if it's a perfect way to do it, but the paperclip method seems to work pretty well. It's amazing how small or shallow a trough your fingertips can sense using the paperclip.

Interesting, thanks for the reply. I'll be pondering that.

Kraky, do you have any idea how this happens during seating?

Sure, I know you can order aftermarket and build it how you want, but I doubt that anyone will ever successfully introduce and market (especially Remington! LOL!!) a new .277" or .257" cartridge matched to a standard rate of twist that compares to what you can easily find in 6.5mm or 7mm...

I wish I could remember what it was like to have 54-year old eyes. And memory too. :cry:
