    IMR 8208 XBR and Hornady 68gBTHPs

    I'm in a similar boat, shooting 77smk with IMR 8208, I chose 23.2grains. Neighboring nodes with similar POIs. Low ES and SD. Sorry, i didnt mark up the targets but i started shooting from the top left. The tightest targets seem to be seated 1.846, 1.843, and 1.828 CBTOs, so I loaded up 10 more...

    Good fast powder for 77gr SMK out of 10.5" AR?

    I'd like to shoot up to 200 yards on feral hogs with the 10.5" CHF PSA FN barrel. How small of a group am I likely going to see if I work up a load of 77smk?

    I've recently chrono'd 24.5gr of Tac with the 77gr smk through the 18"woa and it was averaging 2780 I think.

    Does anyone have any info on a load that will get good velocity and precision out of a 10.5" in 5.56 for me to start out?

    Need Help Deciding a Load

    I have been loading to mag length in the AR15, 2.255" OAL. How much deeper, or further away form the lands, can one go with the 77 SMK out of LC 5.56 brass?

    Need Help Deciding a Load

    I just got a hold of a labradar to chrono some of my loads through the 18" WOA 1:8 223Wylde AR15, would appreciate some input on selecting a load. Goal is to have a load that can consistently hit 4" plates at 400 yards and maybe 600 yards. One additional variable, i removed a rubber harmonic...

    Range Report

    Yes I meant Ramshot Tac. Thanks for catching that. No ladder testing yet. I was afraid of early pressure signs and didn't want to have to pull bullets.

    Range Report

    Working with an 18" WOA 223 Wylde in an AR15. The 300 rounds of 77gr Noslers ive been loading with some 8 different powders and 3 different primers have been yielding poor groups, maybe 2 loads would be close to 1 MOA. Today testing the 77gr SMKs and they are doing much better. Next time i'll...

    Spotting scope tripod advice

    2 years ago, I acquired a Cronus 20-60x86 angled spotter and have been using a SLIK Pro 700 DX AMT 3 way pan tilt head very happily at the range.

    Why aren't the Fury 5000 binos more popular?

    Why aren't there more spotting scopes with LRFs or at least spotting scopes with rails to mount a separate LRF? I wish there was a solid way to mount a rail onto my Cronus 20-60x86 spotter.
