    Sako trg 22

    Re: Sako trg 22 Bought my TRG 42 (338 Lapua) slightly used, and have been entirely happy with it. I am new to precision rifle shotoing, but last weekend, on a target sheet with nine 3-shot groups, 3 were 1/2 or smaller, and the smallest was under 1/4 inch! Go for it. Jim G

    Dillon XL650 *without* casefeeder

    Re: Dillon XL650 *without* casefeeder Agree. Nice to have, and speeds things up a lot, but you can do fine without it for a while, no problem. Jim G

    oehler two screen chronograph

    Re: oehler two screen chronograph Calrifying for the original poster: The Oehler is a TWO CHANNEL chronograph (takes 2 independent readings of the speed of each bullet, and if they don't match, assumes it made an error and alerts you). This requires THREE screens. So, there should be 3...

    Can anyone estimate my fps for this load?

    Re: Can anyone estimate my fps for this load? Clark: You make decently good points. But, the Lapua brand 338 Lapua cases only cost $2.38 if you fire them only ONCE. With the 87g load, I can probably fire them at LEAST 10 times, and maybe many times more. And, I bought the 338 Lapua caliber...

    Same Setup, different ogive measurement. Need Help

    Re: Same Setup, different ogive measurement. Need Help Berger King raises a great point. I recently was given 50 primed once-fired 338 Lapua cases by a friend, who got them from another friend. When I tried to emasure the case length, to see if they needed trimming, I was shocked to find a...

    oehler two screen chronograph

    Re: oehler two screen chronograph YES!!! This is a great chronograph. It is the model I would have bought if the whole kit didn't take as much room up as it does (I have very little "extra" space in our RV where my wife and I live fulltime now). Jim G

    AR10T

    Re: AR10T If it is accurate as the one I had about a decade ago, it will be truly impressive for an off-the-shelf rifle. I always liked the clean lines of it too. It managed to look tough without looking tactical, and was also a joy to clean externally comapred to today's "tactical" rifles...

    Savage 10 BA I hate the stock rail need options.

    Re: Savage 10 BA I hate the stock rail need options. Careful. I am almost certain that I read soemwhere, maybe in the American Rfielmean review?, that the screw size for the Savage 110 BA was increased to no. 8 by the design team. You might want to check. Jim G

    Savage 110BA in .338 Lapua Mag report

    Re: Savage 100BA in .338 Lapua Mag report A load that seems to be working well for me (best 3-shot group is under 1/4" at 100 yards, and even my lack of precision rifle skill produces 1/2" or better groups frequently ): Case: Lapua, trimmed to 2.714" and only a "brush" of a chamfer. Neck...

    Universal Decapper for 300WSM

    Re: Universal Decapper for 300WSM I use the Redding decapping die to decap my 338 Lapua cases. Their bases are around .584", so the same die should ahndle your 300 WSM just fine. Jim G

    Can anyone estimate my fps for this load?

    Re: Can anyone estimate my fps for this load? Really?? Am I even speculating too much when I look at the Hodgdon loading manual, see that 85 grains supposedly deievrs 2375 fps and 94 grains delivers 2650 fps, and guess that 87 grains might be somewhere between 2425 and 2500? I base the 2425...

    Rifle Scopes Wil this elev fix work as well as I think?

    Re: Wil this elev fix work as well as I think? I found a better solution: a Larue quick disconnect LT 112 scope mount. This is a one-piece combination of rings, Picatinny base, 20 MOA built in angle, and quick disconnect. This allows me to retain the same exact setup as I have been, to use...
