    Quickload request: 6.5 CM

    the 6.5 creedmoor is rated at 63091 PSI . yes , the 0.0 line would be considered a max load . I assumed a 22" BBL . pressures would be the same , velocity would be different with a different length BBL .

    Reflex sight on an over under shotgun

    my turkey shotgun I put an Eotech sight on it . it is big and clunky , but it does work well . shortly after I did this , Burris came out with a nice small sight . I "THINK " they call it "speed bead " it's a nice little sight . some models of shotguns , they make a bracket that goes between...

    Measuring Headspace for 338 Win Mag

    the new belted brass is usually short somewhere in the .015" - .020" range . I've found it takes 2, or 3 , sometimes 4 firings to get it fully expanded . so what I do is fire 3 or 4 pieces of brass with only neck sizing , until it starts to get tight to chamber . when it gets tight to chamber...

    scope mounting / alignment wedges

    I bought a set of scope alignment wedges to try out .I bought then from Amazon . https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096FGVK7Y?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title they work on full length picatinny , and weaver rails . the idea behind the tool is to put the lower piece on the scope rail and use the...

    question on neck bulge 30-06: RESOLVED

    you have to use the expander . letting the bullet expand the case neck is not the proper way of brass sizing .

    Tac in 7mm08

    I haven't used it . I did look on quickload . the case fill at max load is a little low for me , and other powders give more velocity . my opinion is , there are better powders for 120's and 140's . I'm sure this powder would be able to work just fine , if it's what you could find .

    Favorite Loads for the 7-08 Remington

    I have always found the 7mm-08 easy to load for . it almost seems you can't make one shoot bad . the recoil is mild making this an easy to shoot cartridge . I have three 7-08's . I have a Tikka 595 , a trued up remington with a broughton BBL , and I have Denise's Browning X-bolt . the...

    STABALL 6.5 7MM-08 154SST QUICK LOAD REQUEST

    I ran the info in my quickload too . I came up with the same info as Dr Mike . my quickload is a few years old, I wanted to see if there might be a glitch in the newer version of quickload , I know Dr Mike keeps his pretty well up to date . the only thing I recommend is double check your...

    Match vs regular primers

    I agree with the other guys . I've read this numerous times . I've used both 215 and 215M and never seen a difference in them . I've loaded a few of both and shot them in the same string of fire and didn't see any difference , on the target , or the chronograph .

    Target bullet for 6.5 CM?

    correct me if I'm wrong . I "think " most guys shooting close range, 100 or 200 yards , are shooting flat base bullets .

    Looking for reloading data for 22-250 and Reloder 16

    here is the info with a 22" BBL . this will give you a closer idea of where the velocity should be while working up loads . MIN Cartridge : .22-250 Rem. (SAAMI) Bullet : .224, 60, Nosler Partition 16316 Useable Case Capaci: 39.985 grain H2O = 2.596 cm³ Cartridge O.A.L...

    Looking for reloading data for 22-250 and Reloder 16

    the only powder I see that appeals to me more than RL16 , would be RL17 . RL17 supposedly gives about 20FPS more velocity ( not enough to worry about ) , but the case fill is at 104.5% . which makes it a little easier to work with . if you use a drop tube funnel with the RL16 I don't see you...

    Reloading and pressures

    there are always an exception to the rules , but this is what I've seen . all things being equal , more case volume will need more powder to reach the same velocity . seating the bullet longer , increases case volume . now if you are seating long enough to be jamming a bullet into the lands...

    Elk Camp Etiquette

    I've often wondered about this . can you give a guess about how much an average guide tip was , and about how much the hunt cost ? is the 10% tip for just the guide , or is the 10% a total tip that you split up between everybody that helped during the hunt ? I've done a bunch of out of...
