Brother Doc- Thank you so much for posting up that data for me.
Uncle Henry- I've had trouble getting my computer to post pics. I will try again soon. As it is, the rifle is just a synthetic stocked stainless BDL with a 26" barrel.
Hey Doc, can I get some figures for the Hornady 129sp, the 130 NAB and the 140 NBT please? Thank you. BTW, I got my GreTan firing pin replacement (speed-lock) and ordered a nice "made for Remington" by HS Precision off Ebay replacement synthetic stock. I decided not to put good money into a...
I got my 118 HHT sample pack in last week, along with a box of ammo I ordered that has the 140 Nosler RDF(?) in 1x fired Winchester cases. Today the Lapua Scenar L 120 OTM came in. Man! They look slick! I also ordered a GreTan FP Assembly for the rifle.
Just got this new to me caliber (never owned one, ever) and I plan on starting with the Hammer 118 HHT ( 120) and the 120 Scenar. If neither are in the Data, please get as close as you can for 64K? As stated many times, I may not "get there" but I might! :) Thanks.
Couldn't resist it...another local AD had a Remington 700 BDL SS in .264WM (26") and a high dollar Leupold. He wanted $1400 for the combo. He also claimed the scope was a $700 value. Sooo...I offered him $700 for the bare rifle. He took it! Seems he was trying to sell his House and had ran into...
You "know me like a book Doc!" lol I may not get all the way to the top pressure listed, but I can get a whole closer than a stinking 51 psi/cup/whatever! ha/ Thank you, I am thinking that my 25" 7x57 will give me a "stretched string" with this weight out to 350 or so. Last 120's I shot at 3200...
At least it didn't blow it off the end of your barrel and ruin it! ha That's alot of powder/bullets down the drain, BUT you now know what to look for, and you got all that trigger time! Rejoice! :)
Rifles still at the Smith's, the MK V basically done, re-bedded, reamed to the Ackley. Kimber still waiting on its Trigger Tech and new, slender muzzle brake. It's having the Sightron Big Sky 3x12x42 mounted. I have gathered up for it some 154 TTH and some 155 Scenars for first loads. For CnC...
I looked in Bob's book, and I was wrong! On page 140 of "Game Loads and Practical Ballistics for the American Hunter" is a picture of his record book caribou, his Mashburn Super Mag and his load, a 160 NPT going 3240! I was so certain it was 3300! I guess I got that somewhere years back when...
