    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    I’m not 100% sure, I don’t have a ton of experience necking down brass. I’m using Redding type-s full length bushing dies. If I had to guess you don’t have the die ran down far enough. Mine are set up to push the fired shoulder of my 7prc back about .003”. I ran it through a 6.5 bushing and then...

    The 6UM

    Whats the consensus on the tbn coated 115 dtacs? Are they worth the velocity loss?

    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    Very nice, if unknown has the 6-7prc reamer coming, that changes things for me. I’m going to abandon the 6prc idea and have them chamber me one as well.

    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    Ryan, what barrel contour are you going to go with for your 6-7prc?

    What’s going on with the Factory Hornady 7 PRC ammo?????

    If the federal shoots in your gun stock up. Every time the ammo crunches happen federal is pretty much unattainable. I’d take 100 fps less on a load and be able to find it here and there even when ammo disappears.

    The 6UM

    That’s equivalent to about a sporter #1 from most barrel makers correct?

    6mm-7prc

    Is anyone aware of a 6mm-7prc out there in the wild? I’ve heard rumors ts customs was going to start chambering it.

    The 6UM

    @Formidilosus what do you think the lightest barrel contour is that one could go with in the 6um without it getting finicky or too affected by heat?

    What’s going on with the Factory Hornady 7 PRC ammo?????

    Yup spot on. Factory 175 ammo in my 24” barrel is 100 fps slower than listed. They are inflated numbers for marketing imo, most companies do it. My handloads right at the cusp of pressure with h1000 are at 2984fps. When I got into the gun I thought I’d easily be able to get 3075 to 3100 with...

    7 PRC Velocities / FACTORY Ammo

    Also I’m 300 rounds into it and I shot some baseline ammo the other day from when I first got the gun and my barrel never sped up. I follow a pretty strict cleaning protocol where I do a basic maintenance clean every 50 rounds. My hypothesis is most people’s barrels “speeding up” are from lack...

    7 PRC Velocities / FACTORY Ammo

    I’ve got a 7prc with a 24” benchmark carbon barrel. It shoots factory 175 eldx ammo at 2900fps. My handloads with h1000 at factory seating depth are just below max pressure in peterson brass at 2984fps average.

    Do you guys bed your recoil lug?

    Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

    Just a 14” miter saw blade with fine teeth. I think any blade would work good, just make sure it’s newish, and go slow. The painters tape over where you will be cutting will keep it from chipping.

    WTB 115 Dtacs to Try in My Rifle

    Would anyone be willing to cut loose 10-20 6mm 115 d tacs? I want to try them in my rifle for velocity and accuracy before I buy 500 of them. Thanks guys.

    Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

    For anyone wondering I reached out to stockys about cutting down their stocks and they said the wrapped carbon underneath the butt pad was less structural and more so there was something to screw the pad too. I cut off 3/4” off mine, filled the butt with spray foam, filled the final 1/8th inch...
