    SEATING PRIMERS

    I wouldn't be asking so many questions if I hadn't primed over 400 cases ... I loaded 10 random rounds for test groups before I realized there might be a problem and they all fired and the groups were as they should be .. I guess what I can do is grab 20 or so random and test them - Thank you...

    would they just misfire or would that create an inconsistant pattern

    SEATING PRIMERS

    I have a question I have not encountered in 36 years ... can you hurt a primer by seating it too deep in the case pocket ? I have a batch of WW .308's that have been extremely difficult to seat the primers in - I actually broke the handle off my old Lee and bought a Hornady hand held tool -...

    .323 Hornady Interlock 195gr

    I and my son bought Kimber Montana's in 325 WSM last year - I immediately tried WW 200 Accubond factory loads and they would shoot to 1 1/2" at best - I tried Accubonds and Speer HotCor 200's and did no better (I have 2 pages of data if you need any) Tried 220 Sierra SBT's and had 3/4" 3 & 4...

    Your special rifle/caliber?

    I used to shoot & carry an ABolt II .338 WinMag - SS, 25" PacNor fluted barrel installed by J Noveske, ended up with DNZ mounts and Leupold 6x42 - It just felt right and shot tiny little groups with 200's & 225"s but alas, a good friend of mine who guides for bears in AK spring & fall talked me...

    Tikka rifles

    Tikka is a good company and the T-3 rifles are made one by one, start to finish by the same gunsmith - Aside from the aformentioned .338 WinMag that would not shoot no matter what I tried I have had stellar luck working with them and have hunted a bit with 2 that were very nice to carry as well...

    Long Range Shooting / "Hunting"

    I have seen that show - were the rifles by any chance Christensen Arms ? It seems that all you can find on the 2 predominant outdoor channels now are these guys doing this long range "shooting" , ACTUALLY advertising to sell their "course" and their "specialty" rifles and then .... the hunters...

    Tikka rifles

    6mm Remington - When did Tikka put out a 325 WSM in the T-3 ? I thought it would eventually happen but hadn't heard Tikka T-3's are awesome rifles BUT you might think twice before trying one in .338 Win Mag - the 270 WSM T-3 is "scary accurate" (with factory ammo !)

    cat sighting

    Vodekz - 10 miles is a walk in the park for an adult lion, especially a "tom" - we had been seeing numerous deer kills in the area (22 miles from Eugene/Springfield) and a month ago one of the kids called in an adult female (1 shot in the "stickerhole") Now there are more deer kills - Heard...

    2011 Bullet Wish List

    Man ! Am I feelin' left out .... what about a 220 grain Accubond in .323 (8mm) I am hearing that 200 AB's don't shoot well in the Kimbers meaning that Nosler is loosing out on some business and besides ... I would feel a whole lot better with an ACCUBOND "in the pipe" ...

    Long Range Shooting / "Hunting"

    I have read each comment and hold in high regard all of your opinions - As would be "fairly" normal for me, I made my initial post sans a complete and well thought out series of statements - Allow me to elaborate a bit ... I would be a terrible hippocrit (sp) if I were to condemn another for...

    pondering on a new rifle

    Several years back a good friend of mine asked me to get him a 270 WSM in Remington CDL (I had an FFL then) so I was watching for the best deal when I got a call from one of his sons telling me to stall since the kids had already purchased a Kimber Classic 270 WSM so I stalled and stalled until...

    opinions on a 338-06

    There is a "smith" in (or very near) Cottage Grove OR who will bore anything to .338 or larger, I am eventually gonna have him do one of my 325 WSM's to 338 Redneck - haven't gotten around to using him but I am planning on it in the near future - I am having trouble remembering the guy's name &...

    What rifle action for a build?

    Guy Miner - Please don't get me wrong about the 700, I would and have used them for varmint rifles and loved them and the "old" models that the bolt stayed closed when stoked were better (IMO) I tried a Sendero when they first came out and it dumped all the cartridges (TWICE) while slung but...

    220gr Game King in a 325wsm???

    I and my son shoot Kimber Montana's in 325 WSM (24" barrels) - The only load I had a chance to chrono was 63.0 of IMR 4007 SSC which was 2700-2714 fps and 3/4" 3 shot groups - I now shoot 65.0 IMR 4007 SSC to 3/4" 4 shot groups using 215M primers/WW nickel cases/220 SBT - I just necked up some...

    .308 Winchester Ackley Improved

    Funny, I had typed out the initial query with the necessary explanation to avoid some of these responses and the computer dumped it so I just put this shortened version in - I have a Kimber Montana and since I have shot other AI's with great results and satisfaction I was just wondering - I...
