    No doubt the 270 was marketed as the greatest deer killing implement ever devised, when it was released. And to be fair back then it would have had a lot less competition. If you can't spot...

    6.5 Creedmoor provides similar ballistics to 6.5x55, which has been used to take frickin' Moose since the late 1800's through to the present day. If you're in any doubt about the ability of a...

    Might go a lot better just by virtue of having a faster twist. I imagine 1:12 would have been borderline on stability at

    Dropped a spiker 600m away about 30 mins before dark across a gulley. Buddy and I headed straight down towards it. At the bottom we had the epiphany that it was going to be pitch black by the time we...

    They're not equivalents in the same way that AR2225 and Hodgdon Retumbo are literally the same powder. Alliant make their own - it's not rebranded ADI powder. ADI's chart is indicative of what...

    There's shit loads of reviews of them online. Bolts are a bit rough and the stocks leave a lot to be desired, but they're decently functional and accurate rifles.

    I load them in my T3. Long action bolt face and mag, and a 1:9 twist barrel. With a short action 1:11 twist, you won't be able to.

    TimC liked post by Pommy On thread : 6.5 question
    It's not so much a gimmick as it is a compromise. They're sleek to match the barrel profile and they're radial which is OK for reducing muzzle flip but less so purely for recoil reduction. If you...

    I've started to run low on Re26 and have gotten frustrated with erratic behaviour from it at times anyway, so just switched to AR2225... 202860 Both the last groups come in at 0.290" and 59.2gr...

    If Re26 works well and the case capacity is similar to a rem mag, then 2217 and 2225 are gonna be the primary picks.

    Yep people work up and keep going until they get a heavy bolt lift or a flat primer or stamp. And then maybe back it off a fraction and call that their max charge. Which is probably too hot since...
