I understand you saying you might have paid too much. We do that when the opportunity arrives for something we have sought for. I have made the mistake of waiting for a lesser price and never found it and what was available gets bought. Enjoy your rifle.

That is a sharp, serious looking rifle.

Rifles are like people. They have different likes and dislikes.

That 175gr ABLR load looks great. That should work really well for you.

The removal of the $200 tax stamp is what I was interested in.

Well, If I have read correctly the removal of suppressors from the 1934 firearms act survived the senate version of the BBB and was passed. Now back to the house. If it survives there, then that $200 tax will be removed. Hope it is.

Don't have a Ruger Colt 45 but did get rid of my Glocks.

Confidence in our rifles leads to acquiring more ability I think as you proved. That was good shooting. What is the load in your 308?

Nice rifle and great that it is one you learned to shoot with. Hopefully after a good cleaning and trying different brands of ammo you will find one that groups a little better. Still a fun looking range toy.

Two years ago, I had Douglas to re-barrel a Remington 700 with one of their XX premium stainless barrels. I live about 2 hrs. away and wanted to see the place for myself, so I took it to them. Got the grand tour of manufacturing a barrel from raw stock to finished product. Cost of their barrel...

Understand about the barrel heating up. This time of year, I spend more time cooling the barrel than shooting it seems.

As been stated, some run, some don't. One interesting thing I saw once was the last day of buck season. Had not seen a buck prior to this day. Small buck shows up about 3:45 in the afternoon, about 150yds or so. Watched him for awhile no others around so as he started to feed off, I decided to...

Definite improvement. Just on a whim, try loading 4 rounds when shooting for a group. You questioned yourself if the shot pulled was you or the load. With 4 shots you get another chance if you pull one. Just a thought.

Good job on your reloading and shooting. Now the fun begins as you have a load, so load a bunch and let her and whoever start practicing.

Not the 6.5cm but close, I have used the 129 SSt in my 6.5x55 with very good results from 40yds to 140yds and there wasn't any over destructive damage I thought. Was similar to the Nosler 120gr BT or Sierra 120gr Pro Hunter. Good bullet far as I'm concerned.

When I was deer hunting with the 25-06 my favorite bullet was the Nosler 115gr PT later followed by the 115gr BT. No worries with either.

I head a hundred times the same story from a departed friend of his experience using the old Nosler solid base boat tail lead tipped bullet in his 6mm Rem claiming it poked a hole straight through a deer with minimal damage and after along tracking job with additional shots required to finish...

Welcome. You have been given sound advice on difference in powder, bullets, seating depth and such. The only thing I might add is the obvious of tight screws and mounts. Also make sure your bore is clean and not heavily fouled from bullet jacket. This can cause loss of accuracy varying one rifle...

Hey Paul, is it possible to remove the block in the magazine well then use a longer follower so it will accommodate the longer cartridge length?

I load four rounds of each load I'm shooting for groups. Not as many as 5. Can't get by with just three as I'm bad to pull shots:rolleyes::LOL:
