Actually this is a Rem722, with a 700 bolt, custom built with a douglas barrel and glass bedded. It certain shoots better than me...lol. I was hitting 12" steel today at 600yds...that was fun. Going to get out and try this again tomorrow... I know I can do better.. Thanks for getting the results up so fast MoBoost!
Sorry, I assumed - Is that a 722 action?

Attachment of target looks squashed. Not sure why. Let me know if I need to upload again. Thanks!
 
Mo, thanks for compliment! Also love the 100 challenge, it's extra motivation to go shoot and gives me goals to try to knock off those top shooters. It was a great idea to give the challenge a time limit that's reasonable and not just the first 20 entries. The on target measuring program was a must. There is a lot of good shooting going on here! Sorry to ramble.

Forgot to mention this barrel has a crooked chamber! It's f"Ed up I know!
 
Shot this target at the farm today. 100 yds from bipod and rear bag. Rifle is Rem 700 w Bartlein barrel chambered in 223 sitting in a Manner T6A with mini chassis. Rifle was put together by Keith Kilby at Wyoming Armory. I'm shooting 80 gr SMK with 24.5 gr of Varget.

This target should agg in the .2's or close to it, missed the wind readings on my 3rd group. Load was Hollister 66 fb with 29 gr. of N133 6 PPC.

Ljutic, very awsome shooting! Have a few questions
1. In your opinion what caused the poi difference from group one to two?
2. You said it was a wind call prob on group 3, with that being said what was the wind like and wouldn't it have to be terrible to shove a bullet traveling say 3000fps ish over what looks like a .250 or more from the group at 100 yds?
Thanks lazer

Lazer, I changed barrels a Lilja to a Shilen the other day and I had to adjust my scope with another target to the left of the one I shot. After shooting target 1 I readjusted the scope 5 clicks down and 2 clicks left. Target 3 was shot into a head wind and also blowing to the east at this range. 70% of the 100 yard distance at this range has arborvitae trees planted in a column to cut the noise down on the side. Beyond the trees we have a wind flag that was showing a headwind, but there was also a cross wind coming through trees I did not see. (1 bullet to the left, the other 2 holes have 2 bullets in each on target 3) Wind was 7-10 mph at times, speed of those bullets are 3,200+
 
I just finished up a new build and this would be a good excuse to get some extra rounds down the barrel. Will be shooting shelf ammo, so likely no threat to most here. I will try to get out this weekend. Should be fun.
 
Ljutic SS: Nice job man, I'm glad that was a high-res picture - those low 1s are tricky to pinpoint. #3 sure did a number on you - but still got you into 2s ;)

P.S. My 6PPC should be here soon .... can't wait!

I don't know what your throat angle is, mine is 1.5 deg. and a 8 ogive bullet will touch the lands at 2.156 oal. I load mine 2.161 (.005 into the lands) .262 neck and I run .0015 neck clearance. Are you fire forming 220 Russian cases? Get yourself a nut cracker neck sizer/de-primer die like this and you can load at the range with a Wilson bullet seater die. Tomorrow morning I will be fire forming some Lapua 260 Rem. brass into 260 Ai brass and I may post 1 more 6 target group with the 260 Ai.

I am using Norma brass and Forester traditional dies. The barrel is getting chamber cut off and rechambered with new reamer.
I've never seen nutcracker die - I'd have to look into that.

There is a Redding .259 bushing in that die and what the tool does is deprime and resize the neck for loading again. It does not full length or bump the shoulder back, as I can easily get 1/2 dozen loading before I get a bolt click and then it's time to bump the shoulder back .001

It's on like a chicken bon' in the mon'.....

May look like shotgun scatter, but it'll be fun stickin' 'em out dere.
 
It ain't much to look at, but here it is....

Hard time settling on most sets. A couple of decent groups. I'm pleased for factory ammo.

It was fun all the same. May have to try again before the end of the month.

Well another beautiful but blustery day on the range--love our home in Alaska, but being right on the coast, not a calm day to be found after early morning hours.

Today had a headwind of 8-15 mph moving back forth from 10 to 2 o'clock.

260 Hospitaller


Not sure what all I did on that third group. Had a problem this morning trying to overload the bipod and pushing down the bench--but that one was all over the place. This is great gun for practice as it's a true one-holer if I do my part--or when I cheat and shoot of a rest.

Total of 90 rounds, 18 separate 5 shot groups.
