If I hadn't spent my "mad" money on a truck I would be your buyer at the 1500 level! I love these Ruger #1 rifles, especially the one you have. Oh well, I guess. Good luck with the sell
Im a little OCD with my case weight. While Ive found that there is no difference I like my cases to be within a couple grains of each other. Water capacity is what I would be concerned about the most.
The only time Ive ever had any powder lot issues was with Varget and that only happened once...
The scrutiny that would come from lawyers and LEO's if you ever had to kill someone would be horrendous. It would not be wise to use any type of "reloads" for personal defense. There's more than one reason LEO's don't and can't use "reloads".
I'm really not sure why I feel this way but Ive got about much use for the "aught 6" as I do for a card carrying PETA member, however, Ive had several over the years and all shot well. There's no arguing about it, it's a great rifle cartridge.
Ive had my A-Bolt for 30 years, its not a 375 but it shoots wonderfully well. I've killed north of 150 deer with mine during those years. It shouldn't be too hard to find something that shoots good! Good luck.
There are several factors that lead to throat erosion, not just velocity. However, there is no way to stop it. Over-heating the barrel is a sure fire way to exacerbate erosion, using double base powders, they burn hotter, among other things. Burning copious amounts of powder, which the 308...
All I know is the 140 gr 7mm Solid Base bullets shoot really well in my 7 08 loaded with IMR 4895. Looking forward to shooting a few deer with them!
I bought a few of the 2nd's and the only thing that I didn't like was that the bullets had what looked like a slight "mushroom" up near the tip...
I lost a son 16 years ago. It's a hard thing to live with but the Lord is able to give peace and comfort to a troubled mind.
When we don't understand we can lean on Isaiah 55 :8-9 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are...
I never had a chronograph down through the years to check my velocity due to the fact that the areas I hunt do allow for shots from county line to county line, maybe 150 yds at most, so having a speed demon was not something that I needed, I was happy as a pig in sunshine with my reloads. Every...
Did you not have any type of CL-100, inspection that checks a home for termites, wood-destroying beetles, dry rot, and moisture issues done or a home inspection performed before buying? Most states require some form of these things to be performed.
The Nosler brass I have is really good. If it were me I would call Nosler, tell them about your issues and see what they say.
I'll bet 10 dollars to a donut that they will make it right.
On another note, it might have been better to contact Nosler first!
