Let me know what you got

Ive been trying my hand at reloading 5.56 rounds in an attempt to duplicate the Black Hills MK262 Mod 1 ammunition that supplied to the US Military for use in the 18" SBR. Im using LC brass, CCI 41 primers and SMK 77 gr with the cannelure. My understanding is the military load develops a velocity of around 2,750 fps. Just for note, I measured the volume of the case with a seated bullet set to 2.260 COAL so I would not overfill the case and have a compressed powder issue. In working up my powder charges, the cases reached the point where they were filled with powder. I first used RE15 powder but was not getting velocities above 2610 fps. CFE223 powder reached a max velocity of 2630 fps. IMR 8208XBR powder reached a velocity of 2720 fps. I now have some TAC powder that i will try next. Im not an expert in reloading but Im giving it the ole college try.

I was wondering if anyone else is trying their hand at duplicating the MK 262 ammo and if you would be willing to share your thoughts and receipts.

Thanks!

Anyone ever try Solid Solutions Designs 419 grain .408 bullet? If so how did they perform?

We got a few in stock. All 6.5mm some with tuner some without.

I'm going to post a quick review, as I was unable to find much information relating to LMT barrel conversion accuracy, specifically relating to how a barrel performed before sending it to D Wilson for conversion versus post conversion results.

I'm happy to say accuracy seems unchanged following the barrel conversion, which is to say it is very good.

I used the exact same ammunition, loaded on the same day with the same lots of components. This is hand loaded 77 grain Sierra match king, but other ammunition from AAC produced repeatable results as well. All groups were 10 rounds fired at 100 yards.

The barrel I'm focusing on today is a 16" Bartlein 223 from Craddock Precision. Prior to sending it off, I fired this group from a mocked up traditional AR upper:



I just came back inside from firing this group post D Wilson conversion:


That high shot was my first round, some of that might have been me, dealing with 20-30 mph wind and I'm not necessarily a precision shooter. That said, I'm very pleased with the results. I wanted to document my very unscientific findings, just in case anyone was curious.

Not a sniper rifle, but definitely vintage ( late 50s ) for Olympic competition 300m – I’m looking for information about this weapon.

I came across an advertisement of sale of such a rifle and started to browse the internet. Unfortunately, there is very little information about it. It was developed in 1955 by a team with the participation of Yevgeny Dragunov ( later the creator of the SVD rifle ).

Only 10 “Zenit” rifles were supposed to be produced for the leading sports shooters of the USSR, in the first period of manufacture ( 1956 – 1961 ).
Based on experience from use in the years 1963-73, 110 rifles were produced, but already in the improved version "Zenit-3".

The rifle that is advertised for sale does not have an original stock butt plate, a diopter sight and original Soviet documents are missing and it also has a modern Picatinny rail mounted on the receiver. It looks like it has only flaws.

So why did I get interested in it? Because it has the name "Zenit" engraved on the receiver - without an additional number and the year of production 1957. It would seem that this is a rifle from the first series of only 10 produced. But it also has serial number No. 66 and the theory that it is one of those first ten can unfortunately be questioned. There is a problem with the Soviet numbering system of sports weapons. I already have a Typhoon-3 rifle, of which only 130 were supposed to be produced and mine has serial number M247 and I have also seen a rifle with the number P1321.

So this Zenit with the number "66" may be one of the first 10 rifles produced in this version and the numbering does not reflect the scale of production but there is no evidence for this.

That's why I'm asking if anyone on the forum knows anything more about Zenit rifles?

Since the GAP 6.5 SAUM 4S has taken off, the http://www.snipershide.com/shooting...185807-new-gap-extreme-hunter-6-5-saum-3.html thread in the bolt action rifles section has become cluttered with many posts making it extremely time consuming to locate data within the thread. If you have a rifle chambered in this caliber and would like to share your load, please post the following:

1. Details of rifle ie. builder, action, barrel, twist, barrel length, chamber finishing reamer used etc.
2. Powder & charge weight
3. Primer
4. Brass (Brand & purchased processed or processed yourself - trim length)
5. Bullet (please post lot#)
6. Seating depth COAL or base to ogive (please specify)
7. Velocity (list type of chronograph used)
8. Best and worst group attained with said load (3 shot groups are more than adequate)
9. List any game you harvested with this rifle and please included distance of shot.
10. This thread is extremely photo friendly!! Please include photos of your rifle, shot groups, brass preparation, loaded 6.5 SAUM 4S ammo, spent casings, harvested game.
11. If you can think of anything pertinent that would add useful / helpful information to the thread feel free to add it in your post..

Photos are 100% optional but are appreciated.

Please do not post in this thread unless you can provide the aforementioned data request. Lets keep the clutter of "Hey nice group, Nice rifle, have you seen ......? etc.." down to a minimum.

Yes I have seen the thread http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-reloading/195161-care-feeding-gap-6-5-saum.html and Pat posted EXCELLENT and EDUCATIONAL information. Unfortunately it has quickly become cluttered with meaningless posts creating obstacles while trying to extract pertinent information.

Thank you!

Looking for advice on 8208 xbr from veterans who load with it. Loading only for gas guns 2 of which i am pushing for accuracy 223 and 308. I read many people having success with it. Loading 69gr and 77gr in 223. 168gr and 175gr in 308. Have TAC for 223 and TAC, IMR 4895 and Ar comp as well. Would I be stupid not to try 8208 xbr. I read its very versatile across both calibers. It is a clean or dirty burning powder.

Gents,

Help me out, what are these rings worth? They were taken off of a USMC Unertl 10x scope that came from the CMP site.

Thanks

URSA NorCal – Saturday and Sunday, April 26-27, 2025 – URSA 3K (2025)

Location – Clear Lake area (same as prior, coordinates 39°14'21.0"N 122°50'50.0"W)

From the event announcement:

Final 3K Qualification Opportunity, Saturday, April 26 – 3K qualification ONLY, no match

We will setup up one (1) target at 2147 yards (1.646 MOA), mostly in the dark, and start shooting as close as possible to sunrise. There will be no shooting beyond 2147 during this final qualification opportunity and no targets will be placed for 3K shooting on Sunday until after the close this final qualification opportunity (the close of live fire for the day). Further, since the best weather is in the early AM, and to maximize the opportunity for shooters NOT previously qualified to get qualify during this session, ONLY shooters not already qualified will be shooting. Finally, only one (1) qualification opportunity per shooter – bring your best rifle. Shooters already qualified are welcome to view this qualification session and get their “weather set up” dialed in…without shooting. All shots will be scored using IRIS hit-indicator lights, 2 per target. At least one light MUST flash for a hit to be recorded. Bounced-shot hits will NOT be counted (MD’s call as to whether a shot bounced into the target).

Course of Fire (CoF):

Seven (7) rounds “practice” for each shooter, then to the next shooter.

Three (3) more rounds “practice” followed immediately by ten (10) record rounds (for each shooter), then to the next shooter.

If the shooter gets 5 hits in 10 shots during either the 7+3 shot practice portion or during the 10-shot record portion, they qualify for the 3K on Sunday. Once qualified, such shooters are done shooting for the day.

Activities on Sunday, April 27, 2025:

The URSA 3000 Yard Challenge (2025)

We will setup up one (1) target each at 2600 yards and at 3311 yards on Saturday late daytime and do final light testing (mostly in the dark) Sunday morning. We will then start shooting the 3K as close as possible to sunrise. All shots will be scored using IRIS hit-indicator lights, 2 per target. At least one light MUST flash for a hit to be recorded. Bounced-shot hits will NOT be counted (MD’s call as to whether a shot bounced into the target). As always, the targets (all) are 37” round gongs. [See “target” definition here.]

Course of Fire (CoF):

Three (3) “practice” shots (actually, 0-3 shots, shooter’s choice) at 2600 yards, immediately followed by ten (10) record shots (actually, 4-10 shots, shooter’s choice), each shooter, one after the other.

Shooters scoring at least 4 in 10 hits during the 10-round record round qualify to move on to engage the next-distance target, one shooter after another, repeating the above drill. Competition will ONLY proceed as long as there are at least two (2) shooters that have qualified to shoot each next-distance target.

NOTES for the 3K:

a. There is NO caliber limitation other than California legal (max .50 cal, i.e., .500 bore/.510 groove).

b. There are no shooting-position requirements other than it be deemed by the MD as “safe”. The MD’s call is final. [Shooters are welcome to shoot, for example, prone, off a bench, or off of a vehicle.]

c. There is NO rifle weight limitation, nor bipod requirement, nor type of trigger restriction (electric is AOK), basically run-what-you-brung that is safe. You can get DQ’d for an unsafe firearm (slam fires, etc.), unsafe gun handling, firing out of turn, firing under “range cold” conditions, etc. The MD’s call is final.

d. We will not be able to determine the amount and height of vegetation between the shooting point and the targets until arriving on site. No land clearing will be done. So, if you plan on shooting prone, come prepared to raise your shooting position sufficiently to clearly see and engage the target. “Can’t see the target” is the shooter’s problem.

e. IF the shooter does not want to shoot the allowed 3 shots during any “practice”, the shooter MUST notify the Match Director/MD of that BEFORE taking their first “practice” shot at that distance, and the MD must confirm back to the shooter that “shooter is shooting only X practice shots.”

f. The shooter does NOT have to shoot all 10 record shots (e.g., they want to conserve ammo for a possible Sudden Death). IF that is the case, the shooter MUST notify the MD that they are through shooting at that distance, and the MD must confirm back to the shooter that “shooter has stopped shooting at (distance), unload and show clear (remove your bolt).”

g. No one is guaranteed to shoot at 3260, or beyond…for example, if you don’t qualify at the prior distance or there are not at least two (2) shooters qualified to shoot that distance.

h. The initial next-distance target will be at 3260 yards. IF we have two or more shooters who score at least 4 hits in 10 consecutive record-round shots at 3260, we will set a target at approx 3720 yards and shoot that distance – continuing to move out in distance until we fail to have at least two shooters scoring at least 4 in 10 at each prior distance. [Each new distance is approximately 500 yards further down range.]

i. Final distance “ties” will be settled by way of Sudden Death. If there is a tie for Winner, there will be a Sudden Death and the loser will be Runner-Up. If there is a Winner and a tie for Runner-Up, there will be a Sudden Death to decide Runner-Up.

j. Shooters are allowed one (1) spotter. Because of the limited parking, it is assumed that the spotter will travel to the event with the shooter. Spotters, of course, can also be shooters.

k. The ONLY non-shooter/non-spotter persons to be accommodated at the 3K (or the Saturday session) MUST be traveling with the shooter - again because of limited parking. And, PLEASE, nobody under 18 unless there is a non-shooter/non-spotter person to "watch" that individual (also traveling with the shooter). ALL attendees MUST sign the liability form.

l. Shooters qualifying on Saturday do not need to shoot the 3K with the rifle they qualified with – the shooter is qualified, not the shooter/rifle combo.

Otherwise as usual, except:

On Saturday, the only shooting will be done by shooters that have NOT yet qualified. Also, shooters that are already qualified STILL NEED TO REGISTER for the 3K. Finally, shooters that qualify on Saturday will need to initial and date their Saturday registration on Sunday (for Sunday).

Reminders:

IF you want to shoot multiple rifles, you need to complete a registration for each one. If you expect to be shooting with us more than once, I suggest you do yourself a favor and build a text file in your word processor and then just copy and paste. NOTE: IF you seriously think you will score 5 in 10 or better, please DO take the time to enter ALL the info requested in the Build Sheet section - will save me e-mailing you to get missing info and hasten getting results posted on the URSA site (News and Stats pages) and the non-Cal Guns sites. Thanks.

If you want to shoot the qual, you MUST sign up ONLINE (see below). Registrations MUST be received no later than 1 PM the day before the qual (i.e., by 1PM, Friday the 25th). There will be NO onsite registrations. Registration is required for all shooters, spotters, and anyone that will be on or in the general proximity of the shooting line. NO exceptions!

Sign-Ups: URSA uses the online program, Zoho Forms, to capture shooter Liability Releases and Build Sheet data, and spotter/other Liability Releases – Liability Releases are signed and dated at the event. Please use the appropriate link at the top of the Activity/Event Schedule page (http://www.unlimitedrange.org/activity event schedule.html). If you have any problem with the online form, please e-mail me ASAP ([email protected]). BTW, the form asks for limited “address” info (only city, state, and ZIP), we do NOT need your street address.
