What did you do in the reloading room today?
Been in a rent house for 3 months while our new house is being built. All my reloading equipment has been in boxes in the garage and withdrawals had set in something fierce. Put a makeshift, collapsible reloading station together and started loading some heavies for my 6.5 PRC. 156 gr Berger...- Btwnbeats

I know you were wondering if I was ever going to reply! Sorry, I’ve been busy lately, and actually got to take a good buck with my MPR last week in Mississippi to fully christen her! I have shot several longer strings... >30 rds. Now, in all fairness, once I shoot a couple to verify zero, I...- Btwnbeats

I broke my 22” Creed in with winchester Match 140’s and Hornady Black 140’s and both were shooting 1/2 MOA @100 yds.- Btwnbeats

Still driving tacks for me. I’ve settled in at 41.0 gr IMR 4451 in front of a hornady 143 gr ELD-X, seated to 2.830”. I’m going to stretch it out this coming week a little and see if my chronograph and Kestrel like each other....- Btwnbeats

I had honestly forgotten about the mag issue. I’ve shot around 60 rds or so since the last time I mentioned it and it hasn’t happened since. I shot another 1/4” group this afternoo, but it was with only 38.5 gr of IMR 4451 pushing a 143gr ELD-X. Avg velocity was only around 2450. I’m sure I...- Btwnbeats

I can say with a pretty fair bit of confidence that it isn’t getting bumped, but the release lever has very little tension, so I’m wondering if it’s simply recoil that may be causing the lever to move enough to release the mag.- Btwnbeats

Day 2 at the range. Again more crosswind today, but I don’t think it affected me like it did 2 days ago. I removed my optic this weekend and mounted it again for the final time. This time I used locktite and don’t intend on moving it again. Since I mounted my scope again, POI shifted slightly...- Btwnbeats

spelunk thank you for the information about those ARC mags! I am dealing with that exact problem you described. In order to drop in one round you have to actually toss the round up into the chamber to clear the breech face. Smooth as silk feeding from the mag, but as you said, not enough upward...- Btwnbeats

You know, the one thing I did not do, and should have, was weigh the rifle before mounting my optic. I haven’t mounted it for the final time yet, so when I take it down to locktite everything I’ll try and remember to weigh it. The rifle handles really well. It is taking some getting used to...- Btwnbeats

First day shooting this rifle was pretty telling. Today was very windy here in Northeast Arkansas. 20 mph crosswind at my range. However, other than that I had a lot of fun with this rifle! As stated in a previous post, I am breaking this rifle in with factory ammo. Winchester 140gr (think I...- Btwnbeats

In the first photo, I’ve shown the trigger group including the tension screw for pull adjustment. I turned the adjustment screw all the way until I could pull it out if I chose to. I wanted to see just how light the trigger would get without slam firing. I literally put 1/4 turn into the screw...- Btwnbeats

No worries at all. I’ll try and get some more pics posted later. The action is about what you expect from CA. It starts out a little rough. I have a 2 yr old classic and it was the same way, and it is smooth as silk now. I would assume this one will behave similarly. The cheek height and LOP are...- Btwnbeats

22” Creed actually. I have some better pics but they are too large of a file. Won’t let me upload. So far I’m really impressed. Squaring up behind this rifle is just easy. Some rifles just don’t feel comfortable. This one feels amazing. I have an Accu-tac bipod on it, and the rifle wears it...- Btwnbeats

Just heard from my dealer that mine will ship at the end of December. Have to admit I’m a little aggravated that it’s taking so long since they stated shipping would happen much sooner.- Btwnbeats
