    300 PRC update

    Generally, the LRHTs like a lot more jump, like .030+”. I’m not sure why he’s seating right up to the lands, but if it works out for him then it’s all good. However that’s not the usual case with these bullets. I always seem to end up .020-.035” off the lands with my loads using LRHTs.

    300 Norma Mag

    H1000 burn rate is too fast to be optimal for the 245 in 300NM. I'm getting 2900fps from 81.0gr of Retumbo and Fed 215M primers (27 in. factory AI barrel), with very good ES/SD. I expect N568 would be very similar. N570 will do even better, but it is notorious for burning out barrels...

    Must be (LOL). They do refuel nuclear carriers at sea, but it's jet fuel for the aircraft. What "fuel" would a nuke sub need from Norway? My understanding is that they are launched with enough nuclear fuel to last the lifetime of the hull, with diesel only used to run backup generators IF a...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Mmmm, ok... I've got nothing against the Harris (I have about 4 of them), but the CAL is a more stable platform. That said, there is no way you go from what looks like a 1.5 MOA group to about a <0.2 MOA group just from switching bipods unless something is very wrong with one of them. There is...

    Unless it’s totally broken and falling apart, a bipod did not make the difference in those groups

    Super weird issues on my .300 Norma Mag reloads

    My suggestions for your problem: 1) Get some proven LRM primers, preferably Federal 215M 2) Look up the Max load for your powder and bullet combo. Back down 5.0 gr and load 1 round of that load, and then go up from there in 1.0gr increments (1 round of each, in 1.0 gr increments, all the way...

    CQ Brown axed…

    I was but a kid (many, many years ago) when I heard that line of BS for the first time, and even then I recognized it for what it was - propaganda. I grew up in the Deep South, and we had plenty of “diversity”, but it was not a strength. For the most part, the diversity part was also the...

    Well, then someone needs to explain this better to them, because they sure don’t think that way.

    Yes, article is linked in post 139 ("mild" kidney failure). @UKDslayer has a great point if they're using aminoglycoside antibiotics for a Gram-negative infection because they can damage the kidneys, but it also could be completely physiological due to hypoxia from the lung damage, since the...

    Precision Rifle Gear Tango Innovations FIRE4000 WMLRF Initial Impressions

    I wave it, like in the manual, never have spun it but my friends spin theirs. It wouldn’t fit in my case if it had a lanyard on it for spinning, so I wave it. I don’t know how you’re supposed to get away without doing one or the other though, unless you can keep it in the shade and out of...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    I never had either one blow up. The 140 shot great for me. When the 147 came out, I compared them side by side (factory loads). The 147 shot even smaller groups at 100 and 1000 yds than the 140, and kept the same velocity and even the same 100yd zero. I was excited, but then I took them out to...

    ...while you are throwing the powder for the next round. My IP trickler is done with the next charge at about the same time the AMP is finishing the seating on the previous round, so my hands are in constant motion, never really waiting on anything: Pour a finished charge into a case, set a...
