    Optima are over barrel. They don’t come back quite as far as dpt but very similar design. You buy an alok adapter for each BARRWL THREAD you want to use it on. Then you can transfer the suppressor...

    If you have a decent budget have a look at the A-Tek optima line. Got mine from stager sports. The A lok system means you can use them on multiple rifles and the design/quality is up there with...

    Put a dpt on my 308, What I like about it is that I can disassemble it, and it is modular. Since i dont care about ultumate suppression, I removed 2 baffles to save a bit of length and weight. ...

    52.5gr should be a pretty safe starting point

    Yeah Bruce I had a M18 in 223, was a very nice rifle, the long action magazine in 223 was its Achilles heal, other than that it was a really nice "buget" rifle, had a great stock, action & trigger. ...

    Kelton liked post by zeropak On thread : Sauer Rifle
    I'll just chuck in another piece of info which seems to get a lot of conflicting info online. Some say the Sauer 100 barrels are press fitted, so not really viable to re barrel, others say no the...

    My experience was that the M18 is one of the most solid and reliable value for money rifles around. Excellent trigger, works flawlessly, V block bedding. Good solid stock. My 6.5prc was very accurate...

    If it helps IMR4831 is a close match for N560. There is some data here for 160g bullets that will give you a starting point: https://shootersreference.com/reloadingdata/280-remington/

    N560 would be a good starting point as would N165. I've been using N165 with good success in a 280AI for years. Other powders (N560) may bring slightly higher velocities but I'm getting 2900 fps with...

    Kelton liked post by Trav-6mmrem On thread : 7mm 162 ELD-M at 2700 fps. Experiences?
    Couldn't agree more. I see it all the time on reloading pages on face book, someone asking about loads for "x" rifle in "x" caliber, the amount of replies that are well over book max is ridiculous. I...

    Kelton liked post by Tahr On thread : Hunting in the Snow
    Someone asked a question about this so I looked back at some old pics. I hunted the Ruahines a lot over the winters during the meat hunting era. By myself and with a mate. 45-50 odd years ago. ...
