Use a primer pocket uniformer and the depth of the pocket will determine how much below flush the primer surface will be. If the primer is seated more than this then you are "crushing" the primer. If the primer manufacturers wanted the primer seated deeper they would design the primer to accommodate this. But they don't. Loaders can spend their money anyway they want and if buying these adjustable seaters make them feel better, so be it. Again, I have yet to see any evidence of this making ammo more accurate.

Spending money on wind flags would be a much better investment and would result in tighter groups.

I have had to wait in barrels in the past, now I order a year in advance and stick it in the safe. The last Bartlein that I ordered took 7 months but I knew that due to updates that was posted on the Hide.

Serious? Tell your idiot friend don't do drugs. Nothing good would come from declaring martial law over the annual gov shutdown.

We could take this time to just wall off California so people like your friend can't go anywhere else and infect the rest is the country with his stupidity. It's already happened way too much, we need to put a stop to it.

Lightening8 has the right idea.

Yup, weak stupid people, left and right alike, love government overreach. Especially over educated ones.

Not many people are going to suggest 5 shot groups for sporter weight barrels. 3 shot groups for load development on a hunting rifle are pretty common. Light weight barrels tend to string when you get them hot. Adding stringing to your load development targets is only adding noise to the equation.

Which means expecting statistically significant repeatable group data under 1 MOA for that rifle is a fools errand. The load is fine. Get up off the bench and practice shooting.

Vermin reduction operations get the AR10 308/708. Anchors better on non vital shots. AMAX/SSTs work really good.
Pay per hog style then bolt gun and the guide will put you into a position to kill just fine with a center neck shot with a 77gr 5.56.
Up the bullet construction and do a Hammer 57gr HHT for 5.56.

That .308 and 150gr Hornady Interlock or SST combo is a flat-out killer of feral swine. The Interlock costs less, but the SST and its boattail sure does seat easier during reloading.

My #1 preferred combo for cost vs performance at this point in my life.

So I was talking to a learned Lawyer on Saturday night. He claims the Executive Branch has the fiduciary duty to get the country moving and must declare Martial Law, if the Marxists will not end the impasse, discuss.

Kinda the point.

Curious if an EMP can magically kill all electronics nationwide, why hasn’t Russia done it to Ukraine or vise versa.

Even if they could shut it down. Which I personally don’t believe they could shut the whole thing down. Its not like people would just give up, it would get fixed. The infrastructure is so massive destroying all of it. It’s basically impossible, they don’t have enough conventional munitions to get it done. I just don’t see it happening. Again look at modern conflicts, power gets knocked out and it gets repaired and/or people move until the area can be repaired.

I am personally more worried about some massive object or unknown energy pulse coming from outer space, than anything man-made.

It hasn’t happened in Ukraine because that whole situation is bullshit playing for $$$ on many levels. Its a fake war killing lots of people for $$$ and power and no one else cares about the dead enough to change anything. You are thinking like a child. One solar or generator powered house, hundreds of others cold and dark filled with hungry psychos=death to all. The only people who will control same as before are already dirt floor poor without power or gas utilities. When I was a kid the modern world could have ended and we would not have been affected at all for weeks. Comfortable western life blinds most people here. Coulda/woulda/shoulda, only the human cockroaches will continue unscathed.

I like Nick and think he’s right more than wrong. If the west is to survive, it will have to evolve out of the current binary politics.

Knives are certainly scary. I don’t want to ever be on the receiving end.

Well changed from my .338 Norma to .308... as I was tightening down the bolts, crack! Off to Barrett

Is that a pre-mlok model?

You can use a pcp airgun without ammo but eventually the wifey will find bugs parts blasted here and there. It's more of a disappearing act as far as the bug goes.

Yeah my last stainless 6.5 barrel shooting 140s in the 2775fps range in matches so shot hard and fast made 3200 rounds. It should definitely be getting near 3000. Try some changes and see what happens.

Now if only window and door screens were made of metal like when I was a kid. Found that duration and angle matters with plastic screens, lol.

The wifey was not amused, lol. Her solution was covering it with a two sided flower magnet. Being married to me she's learned to improvise.

diggler1833 · Monday at 2:39 PM

Have you tried seating the same bullets out a bit further? There is a group that believes seating depth doesn't matter... but I have found that it does have an effect on the radius of the groups (and in the range of about what you're describing). I might try going .010 and .020 out, just to see if your accuracy comes back before you scrap a barrel.

Primer "crush". Why would you want to crush the primer any amount? If so, how much is too much? Do the primer manufacturers recommend crushing a primer? Do winning benchrest shooters "crush" their primers?

The forum has a search function, ya know. Right there in the upper right corner.

All of those questions and more have been discussed and debated numerous times.
