    The 6UM

    Just dropped what was left of the can off today. Steve was awesome to talk with and troubleshoot ideas/opinions of what happened. There was/is a stress fracture below the baffle/weld line. He thinks this was the culprit. He told me he would work on it asap and have the can back to me by next...

    Can you upgrade your brass? Hornady isn’t know to be the cream of the crop.

    If you never shot over 600 yards?

    I’ve shot 4 elk at 600-700, All with the 7 rem. Missed a good speed goat last year at 870 with the 22 creed. I had a 6um spun up this year to be the do all. Of all the elk I’ve personally shot (20ish), average distance has been around 300 yards.

    The 6UM

    I just don’t noticeably have hardly any signs of too much pressure. Bolt lift is normal, back end of the case looks good, no creators, primers are tight. I’m not opposed to going to a 215, but accuracy and ES have been phenomenal with this load. I shot 6 times on Saturday before the can popped...

    The 6UM

    Shot 21 out of the UM and she popped the can… Never was able to find the rest of the can/baffles. Weird experience, shot hit true at 900, recoil was noticeably stiffer and louder, looked down and 2/3 of the can is missing! OAN, I am at shot 21 out of the UM. Velocity is 3300 with an ES of 6...

    Glass is in great shape, no blemish or scratches on lens. Hinge paint does have some rubbing as seen in photos. Swarovision, w/Outdoorsmans stud installed, can include a the outdoorsman post/adaptor as well. Have switched over to a rangefinding combo and these now ride the safe. LMK any...

    FFP vs SFP and necessity

    Unless you are shooting 100-200 yards, I don't know why you would not want FFP.

    My Sig Kilo 10K Gen II's arrived today!!!

    Looked thru my shooting partners at the range Saturday. To my eyes they are very much a better image than the gen 1 and also the vortex AB. Mine are in the mail!

    LS Wild Lightweight Rear Bags

    I’ve been real happy with my LS bags. Got the triple s, ultra lightweight, and tacky grande. Tacky is awesome for comps, using as a barricade bag and also rear support. Triple s I got has a hybrid puffy bag. I already have a little custom made foam butt pad that rides unnoticed on the bottom...

    I’ll get some groups in ballistiX later, but did simple load development copying coal from Ryan and Form. Most likely will land on 66.5. 3 shot group I know.. Gun weights 9.6lb with can on. Pumped with how it shoots and feels. I’ll get some photos and specs later.

    7PRC/7mm rem over 300 prc

    OP what did you decide on? I personally went from a 7RM to 6.5 PRC a couple years ago. Handloading for each, I couldn’t tell a difference of how animals died. 6.5 was 3 lbs lighter than my rem mag, both breaked so recoil was NA.
