    Secondary scale for checking RCBS Chargemaster Lite

    The results above are about what I see between my CM lite and fx 120. I adjust each one to be between target weight and +.04. Might not be worth it but only takes me about a minute per round and I'm ok with that.

    147gr ELD M is dogging it

    My 140 eldm load is around 2640 with 39.9 grains of rl-16. Started getting heavy bolt lift and ejector marks in the low 41 grain range. Had very similar results with h4350. This was in 2 different rifles. Went with rl-16 because accuracy was good and got a little more velocity.

    Reloading Equipment WTB: found

    Got one I haven't used much at all. Stuck with my smaller hornady because I use it at different locations a lot. PM me your number and I can send some pics if interested. I'll take 150.00 shipped. It's just sitting in my way. I'm working tonight and tomorrow night so it will be later this...

    Temporary trickler for FX120i

    I set a dandy on a piece of hard foam and trickle through the hole in the top cover of the scale.

    A&D FX120i scale stand alone

    I use a 419 pan because the longer handle makes it easier. I also use a thick piece of kaizen foam to sit the dandy on. I needed something to raise the trickler enough to clear the funnel I put the hole in the top and it might help absorb the vibration (if there is even enough to worry about). I...

    Savage MK2 trr sr

    I had one several years ago that shot a pretty good pattern (comparing to a shotgun). Bought an fvsr, switched the stocks and sold the trr. Fvsr shot great. Sold it when I got my t1x's. And the trr was really long, especially suppressed.

    Tikka 17 HMR range report

    I haven't noticed any splits but haven't been looking either. I'll pay more attention next time I have it out. Accuracy was acceptable to me, under 1' at 100 (probably close to 3/4) with cci and hornady vmax. Mine didn't like the 20gr hp's .

    Tikka 17 HMR range report

    KoD, My 17 wouldn't eject either. Probably 90% of the cases would spin 180* and lay on top of the next round. My first attempt at tweaking the ejector made things worse. It would pull the case out of the chamber but it would stick in the extractor. After many, many attempts, I had the ejector...

    Tikka T1X

    Just ordered 2 Bravo's for my T1's. Looking forward to getting them set up. Maybe they'll be here by the end of the week.

    Tikka T1X

    Thats not bad. Should have just sent mine off when it wasn't ejecting. Decided to work on it myself because of some of the horror stories I've heard about Beretta service.

    Tikka T1X

    What was the turn around time? At least for now, I have the FTE problem with my 17 fixed. It probably won't last and expect to have to send it off sometime in the future.

    Tikka T1X

    No experience with cz but I have the savage and tikka. Tikka is much better fit and finish all around. Savage bolt has much more slop. The tikka won't eject, though. At first, most cases turned 180 degrees and laid in the ejection port. Now they seem to get stuck in the extractor. When I swap...

    Tikka T1X

    Could be, I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I've also read that some people have had to clean up the extractor with a file to fix ejection problems. Hopefully before the weekend I can compare it to the 22 and see what is going on.

    Tikka T1X

    Shot my 17 for the first time today. Used cci v-max, cci game point, and hornady v-max at 100 yards. Nothing over 1 inch, some were a little under. Shooting between 20+ mph win gusts. The 2 v-max rounds seemed a little better than the game point. Ejection was not so good. Running the bolt fast...
