That is good shooting with a light barrel.How many grains of powder were you loading ? was wondering,how hard is it to get reloading componets in your location.Shoot bugholes Shoot often. varget204

looks like you have a shooter,The 6 mm creedmoor is an awesome round,What length Free Bore and twist does your ruger have? I just got a 6 mm creedmoor barrel,a light varmint 1in 8" with.104 FB.Have 313 rounds down the barrel;bore scoped it, and still looks almost like new.The group on paper loo...

If you have a chronograph,I would check velocity,some loads that shoot good at 100 yards may not at 300 or farther.Usually caused by velocity differences between each shell.It's the same thing I ran into with the last 1000 40 grain lead bullets i bought,.7 to .8 grain difference low to high.The low ...

Cool; that may make it worth more,I got 1 in 1968,1st revolver i ever bought,I think i traded it for High Standard 22 in the mid 70's.Not 1 of the smartest deals i ever made.Great revolvers, made to shoot for ever.I had both cylinders.Remember shooting Empty 1 lb propane bottle w/Marlin 39A rifle at...

I believe the 3 srews were made in early 60's. varget204

The real good tripods are very costly,may be cheaper to buy a rifle,give it to some one and pay them to shoot it :lol: I've heard of a couple people had the Jim Shockey Trigger sticks tripod,i think they made Adapter to fit Sling Swivel Stud, being able to adjust height easy is a big plus.You might ...

With 27 gr of varget,you should be getting around 3550 fps. At 70 fps ES elevation will be about 1 inch difference at 400 yards. At 500 yards about 2 inches.70 fps ES is a little on high side.I get around 16-24 ES or less, and standard deviation usually in the single digits w/ Varget,W-748-,H322,H33...

Looked up data for 39 Blitz King at 1100 ft elevation,bullet energy is about 400 foot pounds at 550 yards.Someone shooting 20 VT,with 32 grain bullets at 3700 fps have around 400-408 ft pounds of energy at 300 yards,If they can wack a prairie dog at 300 yds,why would a bigger bullet not wack one w,4...

Bill K those look like good targets,i bought 1000 that look almost the same,instead of red x in center,mine have 1/4" red square in center,also got a couple of yellow ones,I don't like them near as much as the red ones.I found a place called Lable Value,that makes 1.5" red w/3/8" blac...

Here are other pic's of groups shot 11-22,11-24-18.Krieger barrel at 1000 yards,2 of 3 were under 1/2 moa [5"] at 1000 yds.Shot both guns at 700 yds on 11-24,almost stacked 6 shots,wind or me got 1st shot.Shot Criterion barrel at 1000 yards getting closer to 1/3 moa.A lot of people think if you...

Went to range on 11-22-2018,Had a good day,Shot 1 group w criterion,and 2 with Krieger barrel.Did not know if temp,weather,etc.was gonna bite me.It was around 55+ degrees; but was pleasantly supprised .the 40 grainer's are just above sub sonic.I checked my dope on Shooters Calculator today,it was sh...

Had not seen article;but been prepping as described for years,I've got a K&M neck turner w/ 4 flute cutting mandrel, neck turns while removing donut.Need to get power set up for neck turning.If you get dead serious about distance shooting besides Ogive sorting and weighing,A lot of shooters get ...

I think you missed my point, :? The post was about large weight difference of bullets.If you are trying to Shoot Tightest Groups your Rifle is Capeable of;you should Sort by OGIVE Length,and weight of bullet.Not Everyone sort their bullets.I merely pointed out if you Do NOT and you shoot 40 v-max; a...

Just got another 1000 bullets,Weighed and sorted by Ogive length,1 box,almost 1/2 the box bullets only weighed 39.6 grains,I have been buying them since 2009, First time i've ever gotten any.Previous was a few[handfull] at 39.8 grains.Almost always 39.95 to 40.05 grains with some 40.1 grains.I loade...
