Maggie’s The scariest video I have ever watched
Re: The scariest video I have ever watched That mantle at 4:25 looked fun! I always loved climbing, but never liked having to down-climb something. I'd do it if they let me jump off the top when the bulb was changed.- sv_1

Is prvi partizan match .308 considered commerical?
Re: Is prvi partizan match .308 considered commerical? I wouldn't consider it "match" quality. It works great for what it is. But compared to other factory match ammo like federal or black hills I've found that it just isn't as consistent. I also didn't have any trouble reloading it, but only...- sv_1

155 lapuas varget
Re: 155 lapuas varget Did they have another version of the 5r with a longer barrel? Mine is 24" How far off the lands are you at that OAL? I'm starting at mag length, but don't mind single loading if I can get them to shoot better.- sv_1

Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards
Re: Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards Thank you for the advice and humor! I wish that the 700 5r came with a faster twist, but it shoots these ones pretty sweet. I messed with jamming and jumping the vlds... I have a 308, but I loaned it to my father in law so he could shoot with me. I...- sv_1

Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards
Re: Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards They actually held elevation at 1k really well. Not sure if that means that they were transonic or not, but they went where I sent them! (either left or right depending on how much the wind changed) It was a great learning experience and I'm not trying...- sv_1

Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards
Re: Reloading for .223 for 1,000 yards I couldn't get the berger 75 vld to shoot well out of my 700 5r. The hornady 75 bthp at a little over2900fps made it to 1000, but it wouldn't be my first choice because I can't read wind to save my life. Read lots and start safe. Good luck.- sv_1

Hornady 75gr BTHP / Too slow?
Re: Hornady 75gr BTHP / Too slow? I'm running 25.7 rl15 in lapua cases with the 75gr bthp about 2900 fps. The hornady manual data is for service rifles. On a 75dg day 38 moa to 1000yds, but don't believe the bc...- sv_1

Redding standard die set vs. match die set?
Re: Redding standard die set vs. match die set? I have the Forster set with the mic seating die and really like them. I have the fl sizer set to not size the whole neck as an earlier poster mentioned and it seems to work really well. Another invaluable tool to go along with them is...- sv_1

Re: question about 223 load I've been loading the Hornady 75gr BTHP with 25.7gr RL-15 205m primers in Lapua cases for my 1:9 remington 5r. Getting ~2900fps. They shot well out to 800yds. After that I got really beat up by the wind (i'm new to shooting longer distances) I haven't been able...- sv_1

Lee challenger breech lock press opinions
Re: Lee challenger breech lock press opinions I have one and like it. As someone else said, if you buy the kit, be ready to replace the scale and trimmer right away. They drove me nuts. That being said, I use my rockchucker for seating as I was getting inconsistencies with the quick change...- sv_1
