The temp was about 20-25 C, elevation is 1000 feet above sea level, it was cloudy but not overly dark out because it was around 2 pm, and the chrony was 10' away.
Thanks for all of the help and information.

Re: How thin do you shave your case neck? ( Neck Turning)
I have a pacnor barrel, thanks for the quick responses so I don't have to throw out many cases. I was neck turning just to clean up the necks and to take out the high spots.

How thin do you shave your case neck? ( Neck Turning)
Before neck turning my case neck thickness is 0.013" and after it is 0.010" it seems like I'm shaving off quite a bit. Is this too much or not enough? What are the consequences of shaving to much off?

Re: Ordering a Barrel From PAC-NOR.
I sent PAC-NOR a email regarding shipping rifle barrels to Canada and this is what they had to say.
"We currently ship "steel tubing" to your country via the postal servicewithout a special permit from this side. Regards, Penny"![huh :huh:](./images/smilies/huh.gif)

Re: Ordering a Barrel From PAC-NOR.
I checked out the Canadian Customs web site and searched the firearms section and it did not show barrels as being banned from importing nor were they on the site.

Re: Ordering a Barrel From PAC-NOR.
Is their a distributer in Canada who makes custom barrels or have make high grade barrels? I want to change the barrel because my barrel twist is too fast and is having a hard time stabalizing 40 grain bullets. Edit I have approximately 2500 rounds through the barrel so far and by the time I get a n...

Re: Need help with reduced loads, barrels, and head space gages.
I called Sinclair and they helped me with the head space gage and I'm sure that I can't go wrong with either barrel I was just looking for some advise. I am still looking for reduced loads if anyone cares to point me in the right direction or let me know if it is not possible.

Re: Reloading for variouse temps.
There is a fair bit of velocity difference due to the air being more dense in colder temperatures. I will post my groups from when I shot it in 75F and after I shoot from this weekend and then we will be able to see how much the temperature affects the Varget powder, if I can do my part. ![lol :lol:](./images/smilies/lol.gif)
