    The 26 Nosler??

    3400, 3440...close enough, and the. 375 ruger case holds 95g of water. I think it will be exceptional for a hunting rifle. The barrel would last the average hunter a lifetime easy. Some of us, well a good season or two at the range might warrant a set back job. Sounds like fun anyhow! shoots green 1

Diff length, diff powders and charges, and nothing worth the effort of loading them has resulted. Wonder...

    6.5 CM or 260 Rem

    The .260 has more capacity, but the c.m.'s bullets can be seated farther into the case w/o goi.g past the shoulder, so that more than makes up for it. I've been buyi g 120amax for around 20 a box, sub moa factory and sub 1/2 moa reloads in a stock savage long range hunter. Love mine very much...

    Rifle Scopes Tricks to mount optic perfectly horizontal?

    Re: Tricks to mount optic perfectly horizontal? I was at the lake one day, when I realised I had the biggest level in the world right in front of me. Leveled the gun in a vise and lined up the horizontal line with the water. Worked great! (if you are ever in a pinch without all your equipment)
