Has anyone purchased one of these? If so, what’s your opinion of it?

Thanks guys. Pretty nice looking for a 40+ yr old rifle. Looking forward to testing it out.

Just picked this beauty up. This will be my fourth big 8 and the nicest looking one yet.

Thanks, will give that a try.

This might be a strange question but thought I’d ask. Just picked up an older Ohaus 10-10 scale and it stinks of cigarette smoke. What would be a good way to clean it? I think even the plastic cover has turned a darker colour from the smoke.

Well, added some Sierra 220gr bullets to my stash. Just need to find some powder now. That’s going to be the challenge. My previous 8’s liked this bullet over RL25. The search is on!

That’s funny. I’m on my fourth too lol. Can’t seen to get way from it.

Has anyone tried 180gr BT in the big 8? Just wondering what powders you used. Was thinking RL22 or RL25.

What is everyone using for dies? Thinking of Forster or Hornady, but open to suggestions. Not competitive shooting, just paper punching and hunting.

Looks like we have a winner! 120gr Partition 69grs IMR7828 Wby case WLRM 3.209”

What powder did you settle on?

Yes, some good hand loads should tighten those groups up. Quite impressed with factory ammo though. At least it made the accuracy guarantee lol

Sorry, yes it’s a 257.

Got out to the range today and only had factory ammo to get sighted in with. The Weatherby 120gr PT shot pretty good.

Just picked up a Vanguard S2 Weatherguard and wondering if H1000 or IMR7828 would be the best powder to try. Would be loading 100-120gr for deer.

Used the Chargemaster 1500 up until last year when it decided to pack it in. Went with the FA Intellidropper and like it so far.

Took me a few minutes as well to figure out PM’s

Thank you DrMike. Much appreciated! And Merry Christmas.

Could someone please run a QL report for the 6.5 PRC and the 156gr Berger EOL with N565 and RL26 Thank you!
