    Gunsmithing 220 Swift for 90 gr VLD's.

    Korykhunter Are you using heavier bullets and what twist. I have a 22-250 that i really like but at 1:12 I'm stuck with around 55gr. I decided I wanted to build something in 6mm and shoot 105-115s to get the distance and still keep recoil to a minimum since my 300 saum is just enough that if...

    Gunsmithing 220 Swift for 90 gr VLD's.

    Hey gunny I'm curious did you ever get anything built? Iv been thinking bout settin up something in 6mm untill I started lookin more into the ballistics of the 90's in somethin like a 22-250. Seems like it would work out pretty good but I was wanting some first hand info. If you did end up...

    Hunting & Fishing Looking for places to Prairie Dog Hunt in Eastern Montana and South Dakota

    loudandproud maybe you should have rephrased your original comment to something along the lines of "free prairie dog extermination by responsible and respectful hunters". I'm sure there are still plenty of guys who would be willing to accept that and anyone of them who did would surely be...

    Seating depth oal guage question

    My understanding is that is why the comparator is used is so that the measurement can be taken at the point on the bullets shoulder where it contacts the lands in the barrel and the over all length of the bullet from the base to the tip becomes somewhat unneeded at that point My problem it...

    Seating depth oal guage question

    Where are you referring to by radius? I understand the bullet will have a different design and the base to ogive length of the bullets will vary but what I'm concerned with is the base too ogive measurement of the loaded cartridge. I'm using the hornady OAL tool to measure where the lands...

    Seating depth oal guage question

    There may be a simple answer to this or maby I'm overthinking it but it has me stumped for now. Why when using an oal gauge to measure the distance to the lands does the measurement change when measuring using different styles of bullets? I'm using a comparator to get the measurement from the...

    I'm also interested in finding out when. It looks like it's about 5 1/2 hours from where I'm working so depending on my scedule it would be worth it gettin around some guys that know what their doing and learnin a little

    Befor i plug in the dremel...

    Yes. A huge improvement! Not bashing on B&C. This is the first of their stocks iv owned. I just noticed several small things that for the price I didn't expect. For example a flake out of the finish. Now considering it's a used stock the damage was not an issue it was just that the nick in...

    Befor i plug in the dremel...

    Vmaxed, since you mentioned you have the same stock how do you like it? Over all what do you think of it and how has it held up for you. Mine happens to be a 300 SAUM As I mentioned earlier I haven't been able to actually use it yet. But first impression just looking over the stock it...

    Befor i plug in the dremel...

    I guess I should have mentioned. It's a rem. 700 24" sporter weight. I haven't shot it yet and I'm not expecting a tack driver, just a nice convenient hunting rifle. On my heavy barrel guns I ALWAYS free float so I guess I had it stuck in my head that that was better. I see how with the...

    Befor i plug in the dremel...

    And i forgot to mention i cant currently test the rifle to see how it does as it is now. Im working out of state so untill i make it home to my reloading gear i cant do much unless i run across any ammo locally which has been a loosing battle so far.

    Befor i plug in the dremel...

    Ok so i bought a used stock that was supposed to be a bell and carlson mountain, which is a full free floating stock... but i put it on and ran a dollar through and found that near the front of the stock was touching. Upon taking it apart and inspecting things i realized that there are two pads...

    Need opinion on stock for Rem 700

    I have a Choate Tactical on my savage 112fv. I am happy with the stock but have been told numerous times i would have been wise to spend a little more and go with the B&C, but never owning one i can not vouch for them. Also i know there are numerous other stocks that are of better quality and...

    Alpha Industries (MORTA MAG) Latest Gen Mag

    I'm assuming with nearly the same dimensions the 300 saum should feed ok out of the wsm alpha mag. Anyone have any experience using them for this. Also the alphas should be compatible with any bottom metal that accepts aics mags correct?
