    Anyone use Win 760 powder before?

    When I've checked PV for powders, W760 is sometimes available when other more commonly used powders are not. Given our current availability situation, I can understand the OP and others trying more "obscure" powders just to be able to shoot.

    Savage Model 110 Detachable Box Magazine Woes

    Would be my suggestion as well.

    Gonna build a 338 - 338 Edge or 338 RUM

    I've got an XLR Chassis on my 260 Rem and will probably go with that again if possible. I'll reach out to Kyle to see if the mag well can be inlet to accept a Wyatt's 4" internal box. This will be a long term build over a one year period (literally just finished my 260 Rem build and my wife...

    Gonna build a 338 - 338 Edge or 338 RUM

    Any updates? I'm looking to do a 338 Edge build as well using an R700 donor. Also looking at the Bartlein barrel as well (31" AMU 1-9.3 twist).

    Any interest in a 2k range in NE Texas?

    I would definitely be interested. 500 is about as far I can go locally. My smith is taking my buddy and I to Tac Pro. It would be about the same distance for me to Paris. Just build a 260 and would like to find a convenient place to shoot at 1k or more. Already putting funds away to build a 338...

    Training results at 500 m on paper--Thanks SH!

    The smith who helped me with my build is aking my buddy and I there in Aug as guests so we can qualify and shoot at 1k. Definitely going to Top Gun to shoot at 500 in advance of that.

    Precision reloading setup critique

    I'll give my recommendation for the Hornady OAL and Case Gauge tools. They work well and are very reasonably priced. I think you have the major pieces that I have. Definitely keep the bolt and auto brass separate. You can neck size bolt but not auto and your bolt brass will last MUCH longer...

    Lots of blemished bullets and brass in-stock

    they are Amax's. I have 2k and they shoot pretty damn well for blems.

    CBI 260 Match: AI Mag Length OAL questions / issues

    Well reran my ladders at 2.855 versus 2.850 and groups tightened up a lot. I think I am going to order an Alpha Type 2 mag and see if loading them even longer helps. I don't have my notes in front of me, but I don't need that much more room to get a .02 jump. This is the cheapest alternative and...

    CBI 260 Match: AI Mag Length OAL questions / issues

    I am going to take these new ladders to the range tomorrow. Hoping for a little better results. If these don't run well, I will try an Alpha Type 2 mag. That should get me out to where I need to. As long as I can get close to half MOA, I'll call it done. I've got enough components to burn out...

    CBI 260 Match: AI Mag Length OAL questions / issues

    RP brass, H4350, and CCI BR-2. Going to redo my ladders and go up to 45 and seat at 2.855.

    CBI 260 Match: AI Mag Length OAL questions / issues

    I'd like to find a load and COAL that will work in a mag. Might burn a few bullets trying to find one, but hopefully not too many. I've got a metric crap ton of the 140 Amax and 142 SMK so definitely want to get these to work. In a couple of years when I have to replace the barrel, I'll...

    CBI 260 Match: AI Mag Length OAL questions / issues

    Rifle barrel is a CBI 260 Rem Match (longer freebore). I realize now I probably didn't need the longer freebore as I am running mag length. Using the Hornady OAL tool. Hornady 140 Amax: lands at 2.3390 (ogive using the .25 comparator as I apparently don't have a 26 one, but getting consistent...

    Trouble posting new thread

    I've been trying to post a new thread on the reloading forum. I've tried on my iPad, iPhone, laptop, and desktop and I get the same error every time. The post has no links or pictures, just text. Anyone else experiencing similar issues? edit: I can post as this one made it...just not the...

    XLR Chassis Stock

    Thanks. The action on my 223 is cerakoted in FDE and the patriot brown would definitely go well with it.

    XLR Chassis Stock

    What colors did you use? That looks sweet and would love to use that color scheme on my 223 trainer when I can get a chassis for it.

    Brass Grippers

    I only really need this when I use my Giraud and try to do a marathon session of brass prep, but it works like a charm.

    Trouble getting bullet out of press

    You have a 4" ram stroke on that press. You may need to raise the die and then lower the seating stem to accommodate this cartridge. I only have 3.8" on my Redding Big Boss II, but I have the Hornady LnL Bushings installed on it so it is a simple twist and pull to pull out my dies. For $15...
