Wrap up: boring kitchen shot but today I got my barrels back, mounted a NX8 4-32 and got my new toy ready for some fun this weekend. Smith work done by Alamo (local).
Used on 1 trip for 10 days. Excellent condition, no rips no tears no broken poles. All stakes accounted for.
Note: buddy sprayed bug spray and overspray landed on shell see pic 1.
$750 tyd firm
I’m doing a 6 day power building split for a second time around but I also run to keep my cardiovascular in shape. I’ve scaled back to 10mile weeks due to minor injuries but this combo plus a clean-ish diet keep me in really good shape with plenty of strength come September.

As others stated, keep it lubed and clean. No issues. I went BB and trust it will go boom and get the job done should I ever need it. Underwood I’m sure is good too.
Peak curry is my current fav and has been really for a few years now. I literally ate it 6 of 9 nights on my last trip. That said, I just bought a bunch of new so I’ll report back if anything changes.
Pakit gourmet is also really good as some mentioned and local-ish to me.
I will place myself in the flexible camp but loading long is something I’m wanting to do so I can stuff more powder in there. Just not sure how much longer I will end up going. I’ll obviously be restricted by mag length at some point (no single feed)
Thanks for sharing the dims! On the topic of where I want to set the bullet relationship to the lands…I mean I’m not sure I would have final say? It’s really up to how the bullet performs. I’d seat it where it shot best
Am I overthinking/underthinking this?
I’ve looked and I have found conflicting information so I’m tossing the questions out here fellas.
1) I’m trying to determine the correct freebore to load 108 eldms. Is it safe to assume saami spec reamer is the right choice?
2) those who went 18” and reload id be curious what kind of velocity...
