its coming out of a remington 783
as far as the barrel length goes, ive heard 50fps an inch (ish) so maybe 200 not 600... and it was average over 14 rds. rds varied from 2740 to 2805
Hi All, i havent shot factory ammo for 15yrs but got asked to sight in a friends rifle for him, i thought while i was at it id run the loads over my labradar, its a remington 783 in 243 shooting...
Hi all, Ive got myself a new 300wsm that's running 180gr accubonds at 2920. i haven't put a lot of rounds through it yet so still learning its behavior but what i do know is that it is fouling...
Got a VX5 3-15. love it, got the duplex reticle and its max distance on bunnies is 600m. after that the crosshairs block out the animal.
dont quote me cause i cant be sure of the exact powder charge but im running 32gr blitzkings in front of 28gr? of 2206H in a winchester case with a winchester small primer.

Annealing made perfect

Hi Everyone, im a long time shooter and ive always said id like to get more into actual hunting so have decided to start with the doubtful river area, not looking for any spots or anything but always...

ive been using a 6mmBR for a number of years and have no intention of changing, ive felt undergunned on a couple of occasions but when it came to scores it didnt show. its a great all around caliber,...
yep, quite a good show.
Medium rare bear is not a good idea tho..... lol
have one of those, havnt had a chance to run it on rabbits tho. you can make out a wallaby pretty easy to 200m, past that its more of a signature and check it out with the binocs or the spotlight,...
As above, i have plenty of 2208 but need some 2206h, would prefer to keep it in Christchurch so i dont have to ship. would happily swap 4 unopened 500gr containers.

electronic targets are great, 4 sensors pick up the projectile and can read off your tablet at the firing point, during testing i believe they were getting accuray to 1mm. the also do bullet speed...
these days you wont get club ranges that are use-able with out a range officer, that is a condition of it to be certified. private land is what your after, or become a range officer. Thats what i...
no seperate range, open sat arvo during summer ish months.
Its almost funny as this is almost exactly as the Christchurch boy racers about ten years ago.(to be honest the problem cases are probably the same ones) people enjoyed getting out for years then...
