When I was shooting an 8” twist 22-250, my best load was R15 pushing 75gr Amaxes to 3200fps. It was stupid accurate, producing multiple 3” five shot groups at 720 yards. Can’t say why, but it cheated the wind much better than the software said it should too. The only downside is the heavily...

I have a Casio G Shock 3366 that I got in 2004. It’s one that has the solar charging face and sets itself via the atomic clock in the US Naval Observatory. I have worn this watch every day since I got it in 2004 and have never even had to change a battery in it. The only thing I have ever had...

I just ordered a Mighty Armory 6.5 Creedmoor sizing die. They now make a “-.005 HS” die which after talking to Wayne, seems to be their normal Gold Match die that has .005” taken off the bottom to allow you bump the shoulder more than the standard Gold Match die.
