    Advanced Marksmanship Just a reminder to not be an idiot

    Re: Just a reminder to not be an idiot Being in the gun business as long as I was I have to say the most interesting case I saw, except those that did catastrophic damage, was a .338 Win Mag case that a customer fired in an 8mm Reg Mag rifle. He had been shooting 3 different rifles on the...

    Gunsmithing ReProfile Excellent shooting barrel

    Re: ReProfile Excellent shooting barrel I have had a few barrels reprofiled. A couple of Obermyers and a Krieger if I recall correctly. All shot fine after being done. Randy Gregory of Accuracy Unlimited did the work. Excellent work with very reasonable turnaround times.

    How often do you trim ,308 brass for a Bolt gun?

    Re: How often do you trim ,308 brass for a Bolt gun? I trim every time. One less variable and doesn't take much time. However, I think slight variations in case length has very little effect on accuracy.

    Do you really need SMALL BASE DIES?

    Re: Do you really need SMALL BASE DIES? 9H: I agree with your point that small base sizing is not always needed, particularly when dealing with one rifle and known brass. I also don't "drink the cam over kool-aid." I size cases to a given headspace regardless of cam over. I load brass...

    Advanced Marksmanship Bolt guns faster than semi in rapid fire comps

    Re: Bolt guns faster than semi in rapid fire comps No, they don't shoot all their rounds @600. They have been shooting everything between 600 and 500 which I don't understand. The highest possible score requires squaring the targets @500. Maybe Emil will see this and post.

    Any actual compairison between a tight bore 308 ..

    Re: Any actual compairison between a tight bore 308 .. The reason behind tight bore barrels was due to the Radway ammo being issued at Palma matches. This ammo had bullets that were small in diameter. By going to tight bore barrels better accuracy was achieved. Manufactures continue to make...

    Do you really need SMALL BASE DIES?

    Re: Do you really need SMALL BASE DIES? I would think that before someone comes on SH and rips an entire industry, that he/she would learn how to set his/her dies and press up as well as basic reloading principles. There are a number of errors in the opening post, a few of which I will...

    Advanced Marksmanship Creep on a trigger- am I crazy?

    Re: Creep on a trigger- am I crazy? The easiest way to get an AR with a Jewell trigger to have a crisp second stage break is to remove it form the rifle, sell it on AR15.com, and install a Geisselle. The Jewell AR trigger is poorly designed and made. They make a great bolt gun trigger (if...

    Input on upper receiver choice?

    Re: Input on upper receiver choice? FWIW, upper/lower fit has little impact on the accuracy of an AR. Its a marketing gimmick.

    Advanced Marksmanship Shooting Eye, too late to swap?

    Re: Shooting Eye, too late to swap? I will write more later, as I have researched this subject in some detail. For now I'll touch on a couple of things posted earlier. If a new shooter or very novice shooter is started, it should be done with the dominant eye. Most often they will be able...

    .223 Federal brass question

    Re: .223 Federal brass question I would drop the powder charge or go to Rem 7 1/2 or CCI BR-4 primers. FWIW, I don't know about the brass Federal is making at Lake City, but their commercially made .223 brass has a reputation for being soft and therefore the primer pockets open up after...

    Does Redding Make Comp Dies for .338 Norma MagYet?

    Re: Does Redding Make Comp Dies for .338 Norma MagYet? I am not sure how the .338 Lapua and the .338 Norma differ, but is may be possible to have the floating case holders in the seater and the neck sizer seater opened up using a chamber reamer. Then one would only need a body die or a...
