Hey all. I've been searching the forums and seems that I'm getting lost in the sauce of threads from 2021 to 2008. I've been reloading this year with some decent success with my 6.5 (using factory 2nd 140hpbt, it did the trick) and started to load for my .308 I just got back. I'm currently going to use up the hundreds of 168smk I have stock with once fired federal brass for the winter. I'm using a S.A.C. Seater Die and my C.O.A.L seems to be all over the place. Is it standard practice to measure and sort the bullets by length before loading to COAL?
I initially started at getting my rounds to 2.8000, but have gotten anywhere from 2.8030 to 2.7890. Is this due to the consistency of the 168SMK? If so, do I need to place my time into measuring each individual bullet and sorting them accordingly? I planned on loading to 2.8 for a load test then finding a better seating depth after.

Thanks for the help.

So I purchased a set of meopta 15x binos last year and I absolutely love them! Problem is that now I am totally unhappy with the clarity of my vortex 4.5-27….

Is there a scope out there that can match it? A buddy of mine says it’s not possible do to more lenses in a scope, just thought I would ask.

Funding something else, flash sale price unless I cover it elsewhere…

Question for the amp crowd, or any anyone else who anneals every loading-

We go through great process to minimize overworking brass- removing expanders, bushing dies, honing dies out, collet + body die (my current setup), etc

We minimize overworking brass to prevent hardening and extend case life.

If brass is properly annealed after every firing, does is really matter of it's a bit overworked?

Stated differently, could a guy anneal everytime and use a standard off the shelf Forster or Redding FL sizer without detrimental overworking effects?

Wondering if an AMP would negate the need for minimum-brass-working-hoop-jumping (this could help justify a purchase, but I don't need to justify anything).

I have a 550 but still want minimize unnecessary steps as much as possible.

Please refrain from "amp is BS" type answers- I'd like to hear from folks that anneal every firing only, please

Just got my hands on a very nice looking Winchester Model 70. It's a "super grade" .308 so the barrel is really tapered. It's .6xx at the muzzle. As someone who mostly deals with "shooters" and more utilitarian guns, I'm happy to have a pretty and classically styled gun. It might get some hunting use and occasional target shooting use, but I'm looking to keep it nice for future generations as well. Keeping in mind these principles:

• Looks matter - I want to retain the classic styling with something like a glossy black finish that would match gloss bluing.
• Performance - it's a nice, light rifle that's easy to get behind. I want to maintain that with clear glass that's easy to get behind. I.e. good clarity and good eyebox.
• Range - I'm thinking tweener (2-10, 3-12, etc) but 4-16 could be good.
• Turrets - can't imagine that I'll ever need to dial on this. Capped seems good.
• Parallax - side focus might be good, but I'd rather not need to use it. I.e., good DOF through mag range
• Reticle - don't think this matters too much.
• Focal plane - don't think this matters too much.

What optic would you go with and why?

Hi everyone.

I've got some cash to buy some land on which I would like to slowly start building a homestead. My area is high desert of Arizona (about 5000 feet elevation). Lots of Junipers and other shrubs/ground plants (not much in the way of tall trees, though there are some).

I'm looking at different pieces of land with varying degrees of slope. Obviously, I can grade the land to some extent. Some of my options are more or less flat.

The goal is to grow a few fruits and vegetable, and raise some small animals (chickens, goats, and/or pigs, etc).

What is the minimum parcel size I should look for, and what "terrain features" are most useful or should be avoided?

Thanks for the replies.

I dont remember the exact date of his graduation to the higher realm, but it was around a year ago and I'm wondering if this was a message from the other side...or just coincidence? Regardless I thought Id share it.

Will I make it out to a grand before it goes transonic? I was going to be working with a custom ammo company to work up a load with 185 jugs which would have easily gotten me out to a grand, but with all the component shortages, that plan fell through. I know FGMM 168s will go transonic before we even get to 900. How will the 175s fare?

Taken out the package yesterday and test fitted to stock. I’ve decided to go a different route. $250 shipped

As it is currently set up, with the 6.5 CM barrel, the rifle is excellent for PRS. With the 308 barrel installed, it is a great tactical rifle. I own several BAT actions, and this is one of the smoothest I’ve felt. Both Barrels are extremely accurate, see attached pictures. Rifle has some wear and tear marks, but is in great condition overall.

I rebarrelled my 300prc and I have around 100 rounds I’m disassembling. Normally I’d just throw the primers away and start over but with them being so difficult to find right now I’m considering re using them. Anyone have any experience with this? Worth doing or just throw them out and bite the bullet.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to red loctite a bolt knob onto a nitrided bolt handle.

I cleaned both male and female threads with alcohol before applying the loctite. After waiting two days, I can still unscrew the bolt knob by hand.

Does red loctite have problems curing on a nitrided piece of steel? I'm able to scrape the loctite off of he threads pretty easily. Some of it didn't dry either.

Should I try something like rocksett or let it cure for a week before testing it again?

It is nearly new, been in 2 or 3 matches. Recieved in late July 2021. No ring marks. Comes with MKM scope covers and ARD. Also comes with the box and all the stuff that comes from the factory.
