    Brass sorting and Powder lots

    The actual variance in this test is 0.8 grains. I did throw out that 131.7 that was the only one that was way out of whack with the rest. All the rest were right there.

    Brass sorting and Powder lots

    Okay so interesting experiment. I grabbed a few brass that weighed 313 grains then a few brass that weighed 318 grains. These are Norma Weatherby brass for the 378 Weatherby magnum. I calculated water capacity and everything was between 129.9 to 130.7 I did have one that had 131.7 grains but I...

    Brass sorting and Powder lots

    Thank you Rick. That is what I am talking about! 295 gr vs 318 gr at 5 bucks a case! I know different lots but WTH? It is so frustrating! I wish Alpha, Lapua or ADG made the big Weatherby brass.

    6 mm Br Shilen barrel that I am getting ready to mount , should I choose Lapua, Peterson or Alpha brass? Savage Target action if relevant.

    Alpha....the name speaks for itself, then Lapua. I do use Peterson for my 375 BAS (Cheytac Improved) good brass.

    Brass sorting and Powder lots

    OK Guys 2 part question. Brass sorting: If so have you conducted any test to see if that really makes a difference? Just to be clear I am not referring to Benchrest shooting. Just hunting accuracy. I mean if it can be the difference between 1/2" group and 1" group it does make a difference...

    30-06 --Tried and True

    I understand. I always despised it--for the same reasons you did....add boring to those reasons....... up until 2020 or so. Maybe it is older age I do not know. This one made me feel cozy, comfortable and basically an extension of my pointing finger. Always my back up especially when I go...

    30-06 --Tried and True

    Never ever thought I would become such a fan but one of my favorite rifles, "Ole Reliable", is a Savage SS Model 116 30-06. Oddly enough I bought it from Orchemo (a member on this forum). It is a beauty especially when one sees what she can do. It does sport an aftermarket stock and proving...

    Electronic earmuffs

    Looking for a GOOD set. (NO EAR BUDS!) Must have good noise cancelling capability, ample amplification and must be able to detect where the sound is coming from. I do not care if it has/has not bluetooth, if I can answer my phone, listen to music, etc. Slimline greatly preferred. I don't want...
