I'm just psyched that they got rid of the white line spacers on the BDL finally. Also, they all now come with Timneys. https://landing.timneytriggers.com/Remington_Timney

Whenever they release the 700LH BDL later this year (maybe) I'd like to grab one. They seem to be a well built rifle. IIRC, @Joec7651 has a new CDL and likes it.

Bunch of young'ns (myself included) will use cartridge and caliber interchangeably, even if knowing it's wrong.

It seems to me like it would benefit from real slow powders like RL26, RL33, US 869 and the likes.

Looks like you got yourself a shooter. What do you think is causing the walking, or is that not of concern?

Excellent rifle

Something I'm noticing with the 264 win mag load data I look at is that case fill is on the low end most of the time. Why is that?

This^ isn't horrible advice either. Before I bedded my Tikka it shot pretty well. The bedding definitely helped with the occasional flyer, though.

I eventually want to grab one of those Russian military 7.62x54R ones. That'd be a good find.

Very impressive results

That's some fine work you did there

Those recesses are there because the action screws come through a proud part of the action. When I had a tikka I bedded the lug area and the tang and that was that. Was just as accurate as if I'd bedded the entire action. I also emphasize that you should pillar bed the action as well. Can't hurt.

What model is your rifle?

The 7 WSM definitely should be more popular than it is. No reason why it didn't take a hold when the 270 and 300 did. Nice buy.

Completely different projectiles

They're expensive. I'd rather have experimented with the new HHT than buy the older design, even if it's proven to work. I am by no means into the newest and shiniest thing, but like you said -- they spent a lot of time on it and I'd like to test it for myself. Right now it'll be a while til I...

You and me both. I just started load development for some 131s in my 280AI.

1:7 is stated but it stabilized fine in my 1:7.5 out to 200, which is the furthest I shot it.

L-R: 100gr Speer SPBT, 100gr NBT, 115gr Partition (old style), 116gr Shock Hammer, 117gr Hornady InterLock, 121gr Hammer Hunter, 128gr Hammer Hunter. While I agree with the idea, a fast twist gives you the opportunity to pick up a heavier mono than the 100 grainers currently on the market...

A guy I know got the AI version for a shorty suppressed build on a Tikka. Seems like it'd be a great fit to me.
