    Does anyone know if 6.8W cartridges will fit in a magazine that goes in a M5 bottom metal.

    Support for 6.8 western?

    ADG was in the Shoot2Hunt podcast talking about their production schedule. It was very clear that they will be producing some 6.8W within 12 months because people have asked them to do it. I am buying a 6.8W rifle within the next 12 months. I am looking for the right deal. With Hornady 7PRC...

    Tikka 300 WSM magazine options for extra COAL

    Most people shoot factory ammo. I would bet that most handloaders aren't looking for extra room in the magazine vs better feeding with Saami Spec cartridges. They build rifles for the 90-95% buyers.

    He did pretty well for having to shoot two rifles he was not experienced with.

    Feedback on Preferred Barrel Hybrid Lite for Tikka T3x Lite

    I am surprised that there isn't more competition from barrel sellers around light barrel contours for using a suppressor.

    Best Powders: Short Barrel 270+280AI

    I am the proud owner of two rifles I assembled that have 20" barrels. One is a 270 (cheap to shoot and plenty for deer) and a 280AI (exotic project). Normally, I would look at reloading manuals and start with the temperature stable powders with the best velocities. But, I suspect the best...

    280AI hornady eld m 162 gr & nosler 168 gr Accubond LR.

    If they didn't think many people would be using that bullet in 280AI's, they probably did not want to spend money to test it and develop good data. Barnes has load data for 160g and 165g copper bullets. Personally, I am planning to do some accuracy/ velocity testing of the following: 140g...

    Garmin box almost empty?!

    It is worth it. The only upgrade it needed imo was a bright red travel case. $10 on Amazon. Red makes it easy to spot in my range bag.

    Hornady any good?

    I liked my Hornady press quite a bit and was a moron for trying to upgrade it. The only thing in the kit that I thought was really bad was the electronic scale. If you have to trim bottleneck cartridges a lot, I would add a case prep center to my budget.

    Fix it sticks

    When they first came out, there were just a few attachments in a very small bag with two "sticks" which could be used as a T handle. Example, a basic repair kit for cyclists to carry with them. In that role, they are fantastic. For a bench top toolkit, they are significantly overpriced imo.

    6.5 WSM Load for Youth

    Without buying a new gun, you should be able to get a mild load with 120g class bullets and a reduced (but safe) powder charge.
