    Hornady ELDX?

    I used the 143ELD-X for a season of PRS. They shot more consistent and had better groups (by a smidge) compared to the 140ELDMs and 142SMKs. For hunting? No clue.

    PRS Talk 6.5CM in Tactical Division?

    I've shot/competed a ton with 223 in PRS and F-Class. If I had to pick, I'd go with 75 ELDs at 3000 for Tac and 80 ELDs at 2900ish for Open. It boils down to the speed and BC (drop/windage) with those rounds versus the heavier projectiles. You can push 90/95SMKs at the bleeding edge to get...

    PRS Talk 6.5CM in Tactical Division?

    @beetroot Just checked. The 95's are at 2.633". 90SMKs are generally at 2.505ish.

    PRS Talk 6.5CM in Tactical Division?

    It's an Accurate Mag 223. I modified it a bit more than people usually do to get over 2.6". I completely cut the front portion of the clampshell insert off rather than just sanding/filing down the front nub that gets you 2.5". I'd have to go back and measure exactly, but it's over 2.6" which...

    PRS Talk 6.5CM in Tactical Division?

    Current barrel is 28" with Varget. Throated L O N G. Much longer than the typically long .169. I didn't measure, rather I gave my smith a dummy round seated as long as my modified accurate mag would hold. I don't have pictures of my 75ELD groups, so the 95s will have to do.

    PRS Talk 6.5CM in Tactical Division?

    All this talk of what kicks ass and I'm over here competing with 223 in open using 75ELDs/90SMKs/95SMKs.;);) Run the numbers on a 75ELD doing 3000 and then run the numbers on whatever you want to compare it too. You might be surprised.

    Introducing The Vision Chassis for R700, Tikka, Sako and Sig Actions

    Ran into a unique "problem" with the Vision. Pulled my 28" barrel and was planning on putting on my 18". :oops: Ended up just setting my 28" back and cutting it to 20". Problem solved.

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    I have 2 TL3s. One is DLC coated and the other isn't. I still have the 18" on the non-DLC receiver. I switch things up with my bolt guns like guys do with AR accessories. ;)

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Can't be part of this club anymore. Could have gone 19" and been good, but decided to err on the side of caution and go 20".

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    It is the Vision. I got it from Rick at GCP Rifle Co. They do make 3 different length fore-ends from what I've seen. Tons of accessories and super modular.

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Ran into a rather unique problem. New chassis. Planned on switching out my 28" for one of my 18" 6.5 barrels. :ROFLMAO: I could get away with 19" but figured I'd round out at 20" for a slight buffer.

    I saw this posted yesterday and figured Jack Dorsey, Brett Biggs. But using Bing and Google, I was unable to actually find anything mentioning the CFO of CNBC. As in, neither search engine even says who the CFO is. Try it and let me know. They even pointed me back to Jack Dorsey and Brett...

    Can't confirm the pictured story, but it worked for my twins. Heart rate and O2 levels stabilized with a loving touch. A nurse told us of a study that concluded that with "loving" touch vs "working" touch (something doctors/nurse/staff would do) babies, especially premature, would progress...

    Subsonics - All Calibers

    Yea, it's not a stabilization issue. It's an issue of possibly borderline too fast of a twist on a plated bullet and the plating is being damaged and depositing in the bore, along with possible lead fouling.

    What twist rate? I just bought a bunch of Berry's 220s and have seen conflicting info about them working in a faster than 1:7 twist. I have a 1:5. For the moment, I'm in "send it" mode. :)
