    Gunsmithing Stiller action not ejecting shells??

    Shaving the center lug on my rifle(I'm the OP) fixed this issue. However, I just sold this rifle, and it had performed flawless for roughly 200 rounds. For some reason, the buyer is having a hard time extracting his factory Lapua ammo. For the life of me, I can't see how the extractor could...

    Gunsmithing Phoenix Custom Rifles work pics and reviews

    They do great camo work for sure, but I think that's how the McMillan comes, painted in the mold.

    260 Loads Only

    I guess if you're happy with 2677 and the lofty trajectory, higher flight time, higher lag time, and lower impact energy that comes with it then that's all that matters. It'd be interesting to see if that number plugged into ballistics calcs gives matching dial up at various distances compared...

    260 Loads Only

    Elevation is not going to affect mv by more than a few feet per second. Temperature on an extreme powder will vary mv only a little. I haven't noticed more than a 25-30fps change in mv between a 50 degree temp swing here in AZ. Barrel length will have the biggest impact on mv of any other...

    260 Loads Only

    You may want to try a different chrono...You sure you didn't mean 2877? I'm getting 2925-2940 with only one more grain of powder than you and 140 amax, same length barrel. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    Good to know. My buddies got unit one first archery bull, so they got their hands full and money tied up in their own hunt. But I have a co-worker friend that knows exactly where to go in unit 27 and I'm hoping he can get some time off work to help me out, because I WANT this hunt to be...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    I'm not going to pass up a close up opportunity if it presents itself, but part of the fun and challenge of the hunt is engaging targets at distance. Yes, I'll take am elk at 50 yards, but I want a cartridge that'll serve an ethical kill at 500+. That's what I'm concerned with. I'm 90% 1.5 moa...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    Good advice. While out hunting javelina this year, I came across several more deer than pig(no pig, actually, but a dozen deer). I'd spot the deer, determine if it was in "my" Range, range it, dial up, acquire target, and stay locked on, following as it stepped and take note of the times it...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    Very nice! I'm with you on no running game. What unit was that cow harvested from? This is my first successful big game draw for rifle(javelina don't count). The reason I don't think I got my first pick is because I have zero bonus points, and my first pick was unit 27 early hunt. If I got 27...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    Thanks wambo, I'll save the dates for 1k practice. Fwiw, it was those accubond 160s that I made the cold bore 785(ish) yard hit and followed up with two more on that 10" plate, but they are also the ones that went to shit when I tried them at 1k. If the 150 or 175 accubond LR bullets I have on...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    A lot of what affects non long range bullets is the low bc, and the shooter not accounting for the longer lag time off low bc bullets. If I were a better shooter the non long range bullets would probably be no big deal. But I'll be the first to admit I need all the help I can get! Sent from my...

    Hunting & Fishing Got drawn for elk! Help me choose a caliber!

    What I'm seeing is that the non-longrange accubond are plenty accurate at 100 yards. They're even ok at 545 yards but their relative low bc and short boattail design seems to REALLY affect their long range performance. I chronied my 160s at 2925. I plugged in the bc into shooter, and...
