    Another truck tire thread

    I've got 2 sets of Grabbers in use. One set going on 2 years, the other set have been on for two months. Pretty quite on the pavement, they flat work on gravel and off road. These are 10 ply rating.

    Polishing resizing dies

    JB bore past on a swab -it bore mop works good to polish dies. Brass brush with a patch wrapped around it works good to. Spin it with a drill and it doesn't take long if the die isn't in to bad of shape.

    Strange 30-06 situation, what would you do?

    Hodgdon shows 61.0 grains of H4831 as max for the 190 HDY BTSP bullet @2668 fps. Different bullet but you may be ok with your setup.

    6mm Creedmoor or 25-06?

    Have a barrel on order for a 6cm build. Talking to people who have used this, they say plan on 2000 rounds if loaded to max velocity . I ordered a 7.5 twist barrel, planning on running 90 to 107 grain bullets. Going to be using this rifle for predators. Next step will be trying to find a set of...

    .300wm bolt stuck after firing Barnes VOR-TX 180 TTSX BT

    First thing is check your bolt face for pitting and give it a good cleaning. Have the lot number for the cartridges when you call Barnes. If the bolt is pitted I would be letting them know this as well. Rifle should be fine, Take it to a smith if your not comfortable inspecting it. The ejector...

    Short Barrel .308 Elk Load

    We are planning to try the Federal 175 Terminal Ascent in 308 and 30-06 when they are available again. If they are accurate shooting @ 2750 in the 308, should be good to 600 yards.

    scope zero questions

    If your cross hair is above the bore sight mark, turn the elevation knob up and watch till it is on the mark. Medium rings are the height of the rings, scope should be a one inch tube.

    Can anyone tell me what this is?

    It's a dirty rifle barrel that is telling you to clean more often.

    If you like a CRF action a Mauser M98 would give you around .450 more magazine length. Think the mag is around 3.30

    ‘Shot’ my chrono

    Check for carbon buildup in the chamber neck and throat area. You can also see if you have copper and carbon buildup in the barrel. Check the barrel crown for burrs and if you have a brake you can check for fowling and possible bullet strikes. Assuming you bought Teslong Scope, they are money...

    Pressure Signs starting very early...

    The 2 cases above had loose primer pockets and swelled above the belt after FL sizing. If I remember right both loads were crimped. The federal HE were nickel cases. I always trim factory loaded cases .015 to .020 from SAAMI spec to clean and square them up.
