    Maggie’s What's Your View II

    This white bellied rat snake dude has been living in my suburban backyard for years. During a monsoon rainstorm a couple weeks ago he showed up behind my wife’s car in the driveway. The following morning I noticed him on the sidewalk. This guy has always been really shy around us, hauling...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    I’ve been running 44.1gr of Varget in LCLR cases with 210M primers with a COAL of 2.840 for 175SMK in my 24” 10 twist Bartlien factory AI barrel. They run about 2750FPS or so @ 325’ ASL and are about 10 MRAD to 1K. (Right) On the left is the 200gr 20X load I run in my 308 transgender AI...

    Knocked this piece of shit together out of scrap lumber, old dowels and rubber appliance feet. It’s better than a bag full of barrel sleeves that weighs close to 30 pounds, but just barely.

    Poor man’s AI picture thread (AICS)

    Reamer has .183 free bore. Longer free bore means bullets can be seated longer, meaning more case capacity is available. Are there easier ways to launch 224 diameter heavies to 1K? Sure, with my 22 Creedmoor or my 224 Valkyrie bolt guns, but who wants easy? Easy is boring. From left to...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Loaded up some ammo for load development and zeroing tomorrow morning. New 223 bolt gun with .183 free bore. Left to right: 73gr Berger BT target for break in, 85.5 Berger Hybrid and 90gr Berger VLD. Modified a sled to point the long pointy rounds into the chamber without crashing into the...

    Go my stuff back from my 2112 this morning and assembled it. He even saved me the “Remove this portion ” end of the barrel. This is a 7 twist 223 build with the Canadian FTR team reamer: .183 free bore for 85.5 hybrids and 90VLD Bergers. Decided go go with a spare G3 instead of the PMII...
