Think I got dial to 2800ish depending on da. Through the viper on it cause the swfa just wasn’t enough glass for 2566.
I’m out of dial and tree at 2650.
I had to use the tree to scale the area above the rock to get a hold point above the target.
It wasn’t optimal but worked surprisingly well.
Total left to dial up with 100 yard zero.
Scope has about 30-32 total.
I think my current barrel has the curvature pointing downward because the 260 barrel in it before had a bit more elevation available.
Was on his face book page.
I just shim my rails till I’m dead bottom for zero. Some time 10-20” high at 100. Rarely shoot 100 any way. Shim it till it’s right then bed it. Some folks call it red neck but it’s never let me down. 60 moa is only 1 degree. Sounds like you could go another 15 easily

If I remember correctly I’m at 3.780 bto. Can’t remember coal. Right at .050 jump with the flatlines
Got my measurements messed up. Coal is 4.780. Yes using should bump gage to measure bto which I can’t seem to find right now
Not really sure. I ended up with a pretty good jam to get this load to shoot but it shoots really well.
Finally got a chance to get back up to my 2500 yard spot. 3rd round impact! Very happy with results.
8 mph wind coming up the mountain had me dial 4 moa less elevation and left to right wind at target had me holding 3 moa left.
Target is red dot

Lol funny thing is the seconds display in the video. Least on my end. I think he was trying to say bull shit on my shot.....and the more I think about it I think that bullshiter is a dirty carnie that can’t count

I agree sept you got no face on your page just a carousel
I attribute it to the awesome Warner flatlines and the awesome bc. And being at over 5000 ft helped a bit
. Absolute pressure was 24.92 which is pretty high for that spot. Often low 24 to high 23
Come on over to the View thread. Everyone knows what I look likeI agree sept you got no face on your page just a carousel

It just bugs me. Ford /Chevy moa/mil thing
Will probably try them at some point but just stocked up on flatlines

For reference, I run the 350s and their bc is .940g1 currently. Holds very true to 3000 at least
That’s almost as high as the flatlines are. G7 .494 which has worked well for me. Wish I had a faster twist in this barrel.
And way cheaper!
next barrel will be faster for me too. I have a 1-8 on the shelf ready
Hopefully it's something simple but Savage actions aren't exactly known for amazing extraction from what I've heard and seen with a few I've owned over the years
Certainly not strength of savages.
The tactical works kit really helped my savage.
Same load. No changes, tried dropping 1 gr and still doing it.
Extractor is ripping right through the rim Primer looks flatter but impacts are same.
Same lot of powder and primers
Going to run bore scope in to day and check things out.
Chambering felt a little stiffer than normal so going to double check sizing die adjustment also.
Hoping it something simple

Odd for sure. Ripping the rim off means you have plenty of extraction force just something else is a problem.
Yea
Extractor is probably fine if it’s ripping rims.
Annealed lately?
Checked neck length?
Anneal every firing. Neck length is good. Chamber is clear, no carbon ring. Checking dies now
New brass chambers fine
