    OAL for 7SPRC Wildcat

    I'm attempting to rework the 6.5 PRC modified case I bought to work in my 7 PRC (6.5 PRC necked up, not the new SAAMI cartridge). I ran the case over a 0.284 mandrel but it's still too tight to move freely. Anybody know how far over caliber the mandrel needs to be to account for spring back and...

    Quickload Help

    I've just started using QL and I find it frustrating. I feel like I take a trip back to 1997 every time I fire it up. Anyway, the issue at hand is that it keeps overestimating my known velocity by about 75 - 100ft/sec. I am inputing values from previous loads just so I can learn the program. I...

    Building new 7mm rifle - Advice?

    I was gonna try to make it but I have a group presentation with a couple of college kids at 1300 so it's a no-go. Unlike them, I actually prepare for such things.

    Building new 7mm rifle - Advice?

    If you were my brother and came to me asking this question, here is what I would say: If you want to be a <1000yd shooter, maybe some PRS stuff or just steel for fun, maybe you even want to go after the mile target from time to time, I'd say go find yourself a lightly used Ruger RPR or Tikka...

    7-6.5 PRC

    I did one, a 7mm-6.5 PRC. Well, I guess the appropriate way to say it is "doing" one since the barreled-action has been at the Cerakote guy for like 5 months so I haven't fully put the rifle together yet! Mine was designed to use a SA (I had just traded for an Archimedes so I just switched the...

    7 saum

    Interesting little tidbit, after finishing a dummy round loaded with the 166 ATip, then on a whim making one with the 180 Hybrid, I realized they will sit very closely in the case. I goofed and seated the Hybrid 0.019 too deep, but if seated to the same target of 2.940 the Hybrid and the ATip...

    7 saum

    I haven't seen a lot of guys running Vihtavuori powders on this thread, is there a reason? Here's why I ask... Given the nature of brass availability, specifically 7SAUM, I decided to build a 6.5PRC-based 7mm that will very closely mimic 7SAUM. I was able to secure 300 pieces of Lapua 6.5 PRC...

    Looking at building a 25 creedmoor

    I'm your classic sucker for new, neat, or never before done cartridges, but these days it's just too much trouble. It takes so long to gather up equipment and components now that it's just soured the taste for me. Here's to better times lol

    Where is 6arc going?

    I've been running the ASC steel (aluminum?) mags and Hornady Black 105 BTHP ammo in my Proof barrel. The mags work great and the Hornady ammo is okay, I just needed a bunch of something that I could harvest the brass from. Now, I'm running 105 Hybrids out of that brass and she's a good shooter...

    The new hotness build commences: AR for PRS Gas Gun

    Don't question it, just do the 6ARC thing. If you absolutely want do that, go 6.5 Grendel. Lots of ammo (if theres even such a thing anymore), components, data, equipment, etc.
