    LMT MWS 6.5 Creedmoor accuracy expectations

    Well I just had to chime in, I have one of the first 1/8 6.5CM barrels in my MWS and it has shot like a dream since day one with the 140's weather it be the factory stuff or my duplicated hand loads. And yes mine consistently shoots sub MOA, I would guess I have probably 3-4 thousand rounds down...

    Any 16-19" shorty 6.5 Creedmoor or 260rems out there?

    Power are you using the standard stock or the compact carbine. JF I agree with your assessment on the 123's as well. From all the realistic numbers I've ran the 123's seem to run the best numbers. Also maintaining a modest velocity I should have increased brass life. Currently I shoot the 140's...

    Any 16-19" shorty 6.5 Creedmoor or 260rems out there?

    Well JF still waiting on the barrel, should be any day now. Forgot to mention that I'm going to have the whole thing Nitrited. Just curious if you think the 123's or the 108's would be better for an all around load for out to a K. I don't think I will be able to get the 140 class bullets moving...

    Any 16-19" shorty 6.5 Creedmoor or 260rems out there?

    Boiler I would think you should be able to get a little more velocity than that, I shoot the same bullet as you with a 1:8 20" in Creedmoor and get around 2750. I also have a 260 with a 1:8 and get a little faster velocities with Hybrid 100V. I just built my buddy a 26" 260AI and man that thing...

    Best Lapua brass to turn into 6.5 Creedmoor?

    I have made it from 308 Black Hills brass all brands of 243 and the latest was some Lapua 260 brass which worked in my opinion the best very little work. Just had to trim to length once formed. I do not use any intermediate die at all just the 6.5 Creed die. Annealing must be done though in...

    Can I make my own modified case?

    The listed tap size of 5/16X24 IS WRONG, I will have to look and see what mine is. I have been make my own for years now really easy to do with the correct size drill bit and tap. Just guessing I think it was 5/16X36 had to order from a supply house.

    Long Range Shooting in Texas

    Best of the West in Liberty Hill, just outside of Austin. Pretty nice place to shoot, the rifle range starts at 50 yards and ends at 1000 yards. Best of the West Shooting Sports ? Texas Shooting Range

    Gunsmithing Recoil Lug Pin

    My recoil lug used a small screw, so you could either use it or not.

    Gunsmithing Something crooked on my Rifle

    Windage adjustable rings like the USO ones would be a cheap and easy fix, maybe not the best but would work. I had this problem when I mounted a scope for a friend on his 700 LA, found the holes drilled off center on the action.

    Gunsmithing Trigger 40X issue in 700 PSS

    If you use to your 2 stage TRG you might want to check out the CG Jackson trigger. I have one and love it, very nice 2 stage that will adjust just about to any setting you want including making it a single stage.

    Which 6.5??

    I have both the 260 and the Creedmoor and they perform the same. If you reload then the brass choices are the same for both as you can make 6.5 Creed out of anything 308 based same goes for the 260. I make both out of 308 range pick ups.

    Finally: Almost finished with my budget rig

    I just recently picked up one of the AAC 260 barrels as well and set it in a HS stock. I bought the M24 fixed stock from Stockeys and alaaso installed a PTG bottom metal. I left mine at the 24" mark and have been playing with the 140 Amax's. With RL22 this thing will flat out scoot. Worked all...

    Lmt LM308MWS advise?

    My 16 CL barrel shoots just fine but shoots even better with the 6.5 CM barrel. I rarely shoot the .308 barrel any more since I got the Creed, been thinking about getting the 7-08 barrel now. Eventually I would like to aquire all the different calibers for it. Just because
