    .22 creedmoor fad or just starting

    Night sniper on here uses a 6prc for thermal yote killing. I'd think a 10ish twist with a 75ish gr vmax or 70gr smk and 6prc speed would be awesome at night as a point and click rig where dialing is gonna be tough and be pretty flat to 340-400ish. Maybe 300ish zero and have no more than 3"...

    .22 creedmoor fad or just starting

    Good data point. I was hoping to maybe see 800-1k rds but that might be super optimistic. My 2nd 22creed is a pva solus barreled action and I went with an 8tw, 75eldm@3450. My opinion on 22 creed is that the speed/fast tw(7+)/ heavy bullets is a very small operating window. I was blowing up...

    .22 creedmoor fad or just starting

    I've been shooting 90gr berger vld in my 24" 7tw 22 creed. Original load that shot best was 43.1gr 4831sc@ 3220. It sped up and I had to back down to 42.4 to get down to 3225 again. It sped up again to 3350, downloaded to 40.2gr to sit at 3225fps. No pressure signs on brass at 3350 but I...

    Impact Action Wrench Drive Size

    Gotcha, extensions don't effect torque applications, lol.

    Impact Action Wrench Drive Size

    I know I'm right on the torque variation with extensions, I turn wrenches for part time living. It also depends on what socket, extension, and length of extension. Cheaper tools and various metals used in those tools will determine as much about variation as torque range. Spot on about impact...

    Impact Action Wrench Drive Size

    Extensions and sockets do cause variation of actual torque, but not aware on any action that needs exactly xx ft/lb of precise torque. Honestly, I wish all action wrenches were just 1/2" drive female or take 3/4" socket. I've got 3 or 4 different action wrenches, arc, ai, origin, and a generic...

    22 250 savage- copper fouling massive?

    Savage barrels have always had chatter marks from their button process. Remington was famous for their sewer pipe rough finish though, with voids, in new barrels(10+yrs ago). Chatter marks will always grab more copper than a good lapped barrel, but if I read that right you've got 3-400rds down...

    Ruger extraction help

    Or the plastic shoulder pushes back enough to cause failure of extractor to get ahold of rim. I remember 25yrs ago some polymer/brass hybrid cased 223 ammo, but it was 55gr fmj. It never caused any issues in the bushmaster ar I had back then, I can't even recall the brand of it.

    Rifle Scopes Vertical adjustment after zeroing

    My money is on zero stop needing to be reset. Pretty sure instructions for my lht said something to the effect of " zero rifle, then install zero stop...." on a new lht, the zero stop ring is not installed and in a separate ziploc baggy. Usually when I got to rezero a scope on a different...

    Could It Be A Slower Tikka Barrel?

    If you are using accurate enviros, range, altitude, and g7 bc of bullet in factory ammo, you can walk into velocity(ballpark) with actual drop data.

    IMUNS models for AICS

    Yeah, that's for older legacy chassis and ae/aw rifles. I actually have 1 in the parts drawer. The at chassis has a cut in forend skins to clear the at specific imuns.

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    If the trigger timing to cocking piece are off, there will be additional cock on close(actually its the fp and spring being compressed more). This will add additional effort to closing bolt. This is fairly common on origins and the fix on them was measure and contact zermatt for new cocking...

    KRG Bravo vs MDT Oryx

    I have different take on bravo. I consider it a cheaper alternative to t2a/t6a with gen2 mini chassis. I'm not aware of any traditional feeling stock with higher quality integral bedding/dbm that weighs close to those 2 manners in carbon in the sub 900 range. Conversely, the oryx doesn't do...

    Lightweight, heavy cal hunting rifle thoughts?

    Op, why not have 2 barrels spun up, 300prc/wm for normal stiff and then a trex rated caliber on the other barrel.

    Powder measure for bulk/precision 223

    All good stuff for Dillon measures using stick powders. Anything you can do to smooth and avoid bridging/help settle kernels is good for consistent stick charges. Once I set my "normal" Dillon powder charge bar to 25.9gr of tac, I threw 35 charges. Only 2 were not 25.9, I believe they were .1...
