I have a new bag of Remington 25/06 brass and a full box (opened) of Nosler 100g NBT's. Looking to sell as a package only at this time. $70 shipped. Most forms of payment accepted. SPF

The G3 Razor 6-36x is a great scope. Last match I shot was 85 degrees, sunny, over a wheat field and I had no issues running it 25x the whole match. Of course their was quite a bit of mirage that day, but the Razor cut through it pretty well and the glass is amazing. It's easily on par or better...

10 shot group at 500 yards tonight. Fire forming with 140g NBT seconds.

I think she's gonna be a shooter!!

Got everything put together and retorqued properly. Barrel is free floated all the way, grub screws at 30#, action screws at 22#, scope mounted last night, reworked the trigger and swapped the spring Tuesday night. Trigger is now between 8-10 oz. Will be taking to the range this weekend...

Gotcha! I'm sure it will hammer for ya. With that .150" freebore you could try the new 120g Berger also. I'm gonna stick with the .272 no turn and .135" freebore on my BRA, but go with a 28" 7.5 twist Bartlein on my next barrel. I might try the 120 Berger also, but I don't think the BRA really...

I'm fond of the 6mm variants for varmints and target shooting and the 7mm mags for hunting.

Very nice! Can't wait to see how she shoots. Curious as to why the .274 no turn versus the more common .272? And the .150" Freebore with your choice of 105g class bullets instead of the .104" or .135"

Picked up my CZ457 American 22 mag this afternoon. The CZ gods blessed me with a beautiful dark tiger striped piece of walnut. Hope it shoots as good as it looks! Scope will be here tomorrow. Vortex Diamondback HS 4-16x BDC. 8 oz spring for the trigger arrived today, so I need to get going on...

108g ELDMs get my vote. Hard to beat for a double duty match/killing bullet. It is my favorite 6mm bullet.

I've heard that. But I don't know the first thing about it honestly. I don't mind fireforming this way. Gives me an idea if the rifle is going to shoot and get a rough drop chart going.

Did some more fireforming this morning. Got 30 more rounds down and cases formed. This outing was with 140g NBT seconds, 50g RL23 and .020" Jam. Velocity was 2875 fps. Fired a 20 round group at 100 yards that measured 1.25" This rifle sure isn't too picky. Seems to shoot everything you put in...

I've read that also. It's not a big deal just to run them through the 6.5 expander. Takes all of 10 minutes.

Isn't that pretty much a 6.5-06 AI at that point? I mean a 270 is based off the 30-06. Looks good though!

That's when the real work begins haha

Thanks Scotty! Not a bad looking rifle. I traded a higher end Valdada scope for it. Always wanted a 6.5/06 AI and this is about perfect as it gets for a long range antelope and mule deer round out here in EO. I really want to shoot the 147g ELDM out of it, but I'll settle for the 140g ELDM...

The 6.5/06 AI case capacity is approx 73-75g depending on what brass is used, and how its measured. It will throw 140s at 3100-3150 fps with a 26" tube. Which almost mirrors a 264 Win Mag burning 10g less powder.

Did a little bit of fireforming with the 6.5/06 AI last night. Got the rifle back from the smith with a freshly threaded 5/8x24 and a new MBM 4 port CF3 Beast brake. I had some 143g Norma Bondstrikes over 55g N170 and 140g VLDs over 55g N170 loaded up in necked up Winchester 25/06 brass, WLR...

No I haven't tried Varget, and honestly probably won't. I know it's one of the better powders in a BR/BRA, but I just don't care for it honestly. It burns super dirty. I'd rather shoot H4895 which is what I'm shooting. H4895 is also one of the better powders in a BR/BRA and I have a new jug of...

Ended up taking 5th. Was not my greatest day of shooting and for some odd reason, I was shooting over the top and to the right of everything. But, it's a new rifle, and I haven't spent a lot of time with it at LR yet. Only thing I can think of is my zero was a little high and right. Which is odd...
