    Retiring the 7mm Magnum

    I set the 7mm Magnum up for retirement today at a small gun shop along with the NXS 8-32, the M995 Sako I have had since the early 90's, had her third barrel on it. Last and current barrel is a 26 inch Brux, and it had downed so many whitetails and hogs over the years and a couple of nilgai...

    Shooting virgin brass at the 600 yard match

    I had purchased 200 pieces of Lapua brass, and dont like wasting bullets, powder, primers or wear the barrel to fireform them, so I did my load development a couple weeks ago. I was hoping to find a good load to use at the 600 yard match and fireform at the same time, its like killing two birds...

    Killed some time this morning at 725 yards, took the 6.5 Creed using the 105 Hybrids and the .308 using 178 ELD-M, used the loads from the 100 yard test. A brisk headwind at 1 o clock with some variable gusts. Prepped the 5700 Kestrel for the dope, dialed in the numbers on the ATACR 5.5-25 and...

    Reloading Logs

    I have been using the same cheap spiral notebook to keep all my reloading logs, as I keep flipping those pages, the pages tends to come apart at the seams over several years of usage. I keep some targets in there with a log stapled to it on what loads I used as well. Call me old fashioned...

    Little range time with 6.5 Creed

    Finally broke open that Berger Hybrid 500 round box that i had since July 2023, been shooting the Hornady ELDM 147's long enough out of the 6.5 Creed, they do shoot good, but I'm a Hybrid fan for ELR. The 147's would be a great deer load anyway, I would continue to use them. Checked my old notes...

    Fireforming 6mm BR Lapua brass

    I purchased 200 pieces of Lapua brass recently, the same lot on both boxes. Did not want to use the expensive Bergers to fireform, so I am trying out 105 grain Vapor Trails for the first time, used Varget in .3 grain increments from 27.5 to 29.3 grains. I currently use 30 grains of Varget on the...

    Redding seater deforming the ogive

    I am in the process of fireforming 200 pieces of 6 BR Lapua brass. I have a good stash of 105 Berger Hybrids, but won't want to waste them in fireforming, so I used the new 500 round box of Hornady match 105's. Seated the first bullet, and noticed that the seater cup deformed the ogive a bit...

    Runout on 6.5 Creedmoor necks

    I have two Redding full sizing dies for the 6.5 Creed, one is non bushing and other is bushing, I usually use the bushing die without the expander ball. First I decapped the brass, then annealed. Cleaned the brass body and necks, and I measured the headspace, just to check, and felt like taking...

    Little range time!!

    Found some time to shoot today. Been working on a load development for the 308 and Lapua 175 Scenars pushed by Varget. Been thinking to use this for a 600 yard match soon. Had some frustrations trying to make this thing shoot those Scenars .005" off the lands. Using a mild load of 42.9 grains...
