    I really appreciate the offer. I've got a brand new one sitting on my shelf that I've never used. The reason I perked up with you turning necks is because I can't slide a bullet into a fired case. I'm going to look at it a little closer and check with the tube mic. I should have it in the...

    I just ordered a tubing mic. I'm going to measure my brass. I've been really curious how consistent the necks are after forming from 7mm. When at pressure I was getting flyers. It got much better after getting a better neck tension but it can't hurt to check them and true them up if needed...

    Good podcast with ADG also. Looking forward to episode #2 Maybe something about the Tikka clone?

    How did you figure necks were tight? What made you decide to turn? Mine was probably made with the same reamer as yours and I'm running ADG

    Wow!! So about 45 fps more per inch of barrel added? That's a little better than average. I think people usually figure 25-35 fps per inch. That's close to what I was getting with a 108 ELDm. Similar powder charge. Think I still had more room with those. I've got 71 grn in under the 90HHT...

    @RockCreekGuy With the modified case to resemble the 7 PRC what did QL say for 26" 7 twist with N570? That's what I run. Curious how close it would be. Oh 90HHT for the bullet if it list those. I have run a few 108 ELM also. How picky would groove caliber be with QL settings. A quick check...

    I'm not familiar with that case. How's it compared to a 7 PRC case? Shorter?

    What bushing are you running? How much did you end up turning the necks. I'm shooting a Tikka 6 ROKUM as well.

    6 prc would be the easy button. No fire forming. Just load and shoot. I shoot the 6-7PRC. Things are changing and becoming more available like brass and dies. The 6PRC wasn't as easy 6 months ago and in another 6 months will be even better. Each of the other cases mentioned are slightly...

    If you are shooting that bullet you should be good with a slower twist. No need for faster twist unless running the longer bullets

    At what speeds? What barrel length, 20" ?

    The 6UM

    26" Ace I actually had more room for pressure but was just fire forming. I'm running 90HHT at 3560 fps. And it's the 6-7PRC cartridge

    I know the 108 eldm doesn't like my 7 twist at 3350 fps. I used them for fire forming. Somewhere around 100 rnds on the barrel they started not making to a 50 yard target.

    Heater Body Suit still the best for cold stands?

    The most miserable cold I endured in a stand is when it was windy and switching back and forth snow and rain all day. The heater suit was great and I used a large rain poncho over it to stay dry. I do believe they make a layer that snaps on over it for rain.
