    Accuracy deminishes w/ increased speed

    Hi guys, My Remington 700 SPS Tactical w/ 20" barrel will shoot 1/2 MOA all day at about 2450 fps. I decided to try to get some more speed out of it, so I loaded 3 each of .5 more grains of H4895. My original load is 40.5 gr under a 168 gr SMK w/ 210M primers. 41gr shot well, but 41.5, 42, 42.5...

    Loading 55gr Nosler BT Varmint .243

    If you read my last post, you'll see I just got this Ruger & am trying to work thru a few issues. I want to have a varmint load, as well as a good long-range load. As I was measuring for max COL on the different bullets I have, I realized that there's no way I can load the 55gr anywhere close to...

    Problems loading for .243 Win

    I just got a new Ruger American Rifle in .243. I posted a quick review in the 'rifles' forum. I had an awesome group of 3 shots in 1/4" at 100 yds., using some old Sierra 85 gr HPBT that my friend had on the shelf, 41.5 gr H414, Fed 210M primers in new Winchester cases. I did some checking...

    Shot my new Ruger American .243

    After not being able to find any info on the .243 RAR, I went ahead & bought one. All the magazines rave about the gun, but they all shot the 30-06. I got mine from Kentucky Gun Co. for $309, by far the best price I could find. Ordered it on Monday & it arrived at the store on Friday. When I...

    Bullet jump & Berger VLD

    I'm trying to find a hunting load that will shoot as well as Federal GMM 175gr. Among others, I tried Berger VLD 168 gr. I've read that you want the bullet jump at around .020 or so. I measured my chamber w/ Hornady's OAL gauge and loaded a few rounds .020 less than that. Only problem is they...

    My next gun idea...

    I want to get the new Marlin XS7S in 7mm-08. A friend got a blued one & I like it, so I'm gonna get a stainless one. I want to have to barrel cut/chamfered to 18", (comes w/ 22"). What I'll end up w/ is a gun dimensionally the same, (almost), as the Rem Model 7 Compact, only for about $200 less...

    Shot my new Rem .308 Tactical

    Hello all, first time on THR. Picked up a new gun last week & so far I love it. I put a Bushnell 3x-9x on it until I get my Burris back from being repaired. First shot was at 3x, a little off. But then shot a 9/16", 4-shot group while breaking in the barrel w/ cheap Winchester 150 gr. ammo. Very...
