    Magnetospeed mount for tikka stock

    I’m not familiar with the Tikka stocks, but for my HS Precision stock, I used a pic rail that goes where the two sling swivel studs are located. This is made by Seekins. This piece of pic rail also has a slot in the nose for a sling swivel. I place the Wiser Precision mount on the pic...

    They are saying it (20MOA) is machined into the receiver.

    ES vs Accuracy

    It’s a legit question. A true 1MOA gun will shoot a 1/4 MOA 3-shot group on occasion, and some will claim it as a “1/4 MOA gun!” That is the statistical insignificance at play, with the very rough, over-stretched analogy of even a blind squirrel will find a nut every now and then. 10-shot...

    Anyone heard of Oregon Mountain Rifle company?

    Just came across OMR this morning and then found this thread. Interested to see weight differences before/after.

    Hornady brass

    Complaints I have heard mostly center around softer brass causing primer pockets to loosen up sooner, and less weight consistency. It will also vary by caliber. For example, 6.5 PRC shooters are reporting great case life, over 12 loadings and counting. If your standard for case sorting is 2-3...

    Atlas Bipod loading

    One modification to this is to lay out a towel, place the bipod legs on the front of the towel and then run the towel under the rifle and back towards you. Then your support arm can rest on the towel and provide just enough tension to keep the bipod/towel from sliding forward under a slide...

    Bergara B14 Ridge 6.5 PRC Anyone seen one yet?

    Ah--didn't realize the Ridge line was hinged floorplate and therefore no DBM. Wonder what COAL it will accommodate.

    Hornady brass

    ADG typically has less capacity than Hornady. Wouldn't pressure signs show up at same velocities (not necessarily powder charge weight)? Or are you running out of case fill capacity and therefore not able to get as much powder in the case with Hornady brass to get the same velocity as you're...

    .308 175gr Sierra matchking

    42.6 grains of Varget is netting me 2561 FPS out of a 20.5” barrel with the 178, using CBC (Magtech) brass and S&B primers. Single digit SD.

    Hornady brass

    While I have heard that Hornady brass leaves much to be desired, everything I have heard from others and experienced personally points to it being pretty robust for 6.5 PRC. Some have achieved 12+ reloadings so far. Obviously not the same as 6.5 CM brass but just wanted to through that out...

    Optika 6 line--anyone got their hands on one yet?

    Found Formidilosus' very comprehensive review of the 3-18. Tracking seems to hold up to some bumping around, and has been robust for him: https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/meopta-optika6-3-18x50mm-ffp-evaluation.145959/page-2 Anyone have experience with the 4.5-27? (No donut reticle...

    Bergara B14 Ridge 6.5 PRC Anyone seen one yet?

    Are they using a short-action and AICS style mags for the 6.5 PRC? I suppose that would pretty much necessitate an Accurate Mag or similar WSSM w/ front rib removed in order to accommodate 2.950" COAL.

    .308 175gr Sierra matchking

    I have been loading both the 178 ELD-X as well as the 175 SMK for my 308. While I think the 175 does win in the overall accuracy department, I just started tinkering a bit more with seating depths on the 178 ELD-X and am showing potential for a 0.60 MOA node with it. Which for me, for hunting...

    Tall target test, reticle leveling to turret

    OP--thanks for reporting back. We've all made mistakes like that, but sharing the results helps all of us. I'm just a FNG here on this site, but learning a ton from you all, including experiences like yours.
