    anyone use a 22-250 with 1/8 twist barrel?

    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...

    Which Wrist Watch ?

    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...

    Barnes 145 gr Match Burner

    I gave up on them. They showed some promise, but in the end I never could get consistently good groups out of them. They kinda behaved like the RDFs for me. John

    Mighty Armory Full length sizing die

    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. While I am not dissatisfied...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    In my CMs 41gr R16 seems to work well with any decent 140gr bullet In any decent rifle. Also, though the BC is unimpressive, I’ve not found a CM that won’t shoot the Hornady 140gr BTHP. Here’s 41gr R16 behind the 140gr Hornady BTHP. John

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 3x9x42 HD who likes it.

    I prefer the mil quad reticle, but for hunting, the plain mil dot isn’t bad. There were some mismatched MOA/MIL out there years ago. I’d absolutely steer clear of those. John

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 3x9x42 HD who likes it.

    Great scope. Retains zero, tracks well and returns to zero as it should. Pretty good glass. Great hunting scope. Do wish it came with a zero stop, but this is easily overcome. John
