Thanks, I'm going to send you a PM . . .

Is Nathan still around, and making muzzle brakes? I have a couple of his, and in need of another. :grin:

Nathan, do you have any brakes in stock? Sent you a PM. Thanks.

I'm running H4831 (not sc) in my 280AI with 140AB at 3200fps, and getting 1/2 MOA. Tried the 168CC and 168ABLR and they only want to shoot MOA :mrgreen: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yessir, that grin would light up the night. She was concerned, no doubt, Saturday night. I kept telling her "don't worry, he is dead. I watched the bullet hit. We just have to give him time." When we received the "found him" text on Sunday morning, the grin was priceless. :grin:

Update! Last season, she didn't see anything worthy of a bullet. So it was a long off-season in anticipation of drawing blood. We went to Missouri for the youth hunt last weekend, and got the job done. Watched a heart-stopper size buck get away from us. Then she got a chance at a good size...

My dad got into PCPs this summer. Recharge with a scuba tank or smaller paintball size tank. Get 150-200 shots per charge around 800fps. They are spooky accurate, and great trigger practice. He has the KalibrGun Cricket bullpup 22cal. I head-shot a eurasian collered dove we lasered at...

Very nice! I built a 26" McGowen barreled Rem700 in 280AI a couple years ago. It shoots the 140AB like a dream. Tried the 168 ABLR and it was so-so. Thinking about working up a 160AB for elk next year -- if my hunting pardner can make his mind up to go. ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I looked all over for comparisons, and best I can gather is that it is somewhere between RL19 and RL22. It's been on the market for a few years, but there is not much talk or data. With powder so scarce, I rolled the dice with this one since Gene Sears supply in El Reno, OK has about 600lbs in...

A couple of months ago, I went in search of a load for my Dad's .264mag after doing some barrel work to get rid of an excessive headspace problem. I had tried the usual suspect powders, but nothing wanted to shoot. Dad was determined on shooting the 120gr Sierra flat base bullets. I posted on...

No worries, he has piled up the whitetails the last 20 years with it. But ran out of the lot of IMR-4831, so I'm in search of a replacement. I'm also going to test a 130AB, or 129 ABLR if I can ever find them in stock.

I was hoping for a load with Alliant Power Pro 4000-MR, but looks like QL doesn't have a workup yet. Pity, as I have access to it - and Alliant shows data for 7mag and 300mag.

Thanks, DrMike! :grin:

Could someone run a QL on the 264mag for me, with a 120gr Sierra SPT ProHunter (#1720) I had some work done on my Dad's rifle, and I know there are better bullet choices, but that's his darling so I'm going to do a load workup. Thanks! -Gene

Very cool!!

Thanks, fellas. We didn't connect, but one of our buddies smoked an auodad with his 6.5x47 Lapua at a record breaking distance of 20 yards, with a 130gr Berger VLDH! :lol: That 168 ABLR in my 280AI is running 59.0 gr H4831 (not SC) at 2950fps. Next time . . . :)

Good article. The penetration and expansion at distance is impressive. Me and HTDUCK are leaving this afternoon for one last chance at a cull buck or auodad. I have my 280AI dialed-in with the 168gr ABLR at 2950fps. Hopefully there will be a test subject downrange. :)

You're gonna love it! Wouldn't trade mine for anything. :grin:

Nice!

Love it! I like a little character, and that Mohawk action is just goofy enough to pull it off! Guy - that's a nice Sako. I was wondering how small a barrel contour you can go and still have it fluted. The folks at McGowen have been very helpful in the barrels I've gotten from them - I...
