    No ammoniated rifle cleaners?

    I recently purchased a T/C Venture rifle. In the instruction booklet that came with it, there were instructions that said not to use ammoniated ( products with ammonia) in the rifle. Can someone explain this to me? Most copper solvents contain some type of ammonia compound.

    T/C Venture rifle.

    Dick's recently had a sale on the T/C Venture in .270W for about 325$ after rebate. They guarantee 1in. at 100 yds. with premium ammo. It did that. With my reloads, it grouped 1/2in @ 100 and 1in @ 200- yds. This is the only rifle I've ever owned that I did not have to modify i.e. float the...

    magnum or regular primers for WW 760

    I am loading for .243W using WW760 powder. I am currently using magnum primers. Would regular primers suffice? I recall reading somewhere that magnum primers should be used with the WW760 and the H414 which are the same powder.

    What would be the results if one were to load .308 bullets in a SKS designed for .311 bullets? (7.62X39 cartridge?) Have any of you tried this?

    Scope height question

    I shoot a .270 Winchester. My scope is about 2.5 inches above the bore. The MV is about 3000fps with 130 gr. bullets. To have a 200yd zero, how high should I be at 100yds? The charts I have seen are for scopes mounted 1.5 inches. I would appreciate any info.
