I had this issue with my Savage 6.5 creedmoor. I took it to a gun smith and had him check it out, he said everything was good . What I found was , when resizing ( full length die ) the shoulder was longer then what the book called for . The shoulder was bottoming out in the chamber . When fired...

Everything I shoot is at the range now a days , have lots of CCI primers lr and sr . I can get all kinds of primers BR-2 lr and BR-4 sr , I have driven 100 miles for powder but nobody has powder around here now Lapua bullets are hard to find as well . My 6.5 creedmoor likes the Lapua scenaro 123...

Sorry for your loss Your dad brought that deer out to you to let you know he will always be with you

My brothers son in-law had a 308 that kicked like a mule . I downloaded some rounds for him that didn’t kick near as much and he still killed a bunch of deer

As a lot of other loaders , I started loading for my 410 and 12 pipe . A box of clay pigeons was $5.99 and a box of shells were close to that cost . My brother bought the loader for the 12 pipe and bought the one for our 410’s . From there it went to rifles . I could load a box of shells for my...

I have a hammer and a collet but like J E says , it just doesn’t feel right beating a live round in a piece of plastic on cement . I went to a block of hard maple but still didn’t feel right . Don’t get me wrong , it worked ever time and they are cheap but dang just that thought . I use only the...

To add to that story , when I burst out laughing , I thought those doe were going to turn themselves inside out trying to get away . That’s why it was either get down out of the stand or fall out of the stand

It’s funny that you would wonder about deer passing air , I was in my stand early one afternoon in bow season .Two doe stopped under my stand to feed on some acorns . One passed air , and yes I did hear it , the other one jumped away from that one and stared at it . I couldn’t help myself , I...

I think your doing the right thing by having her stay home this year . My ex-daughter in-law was close to a loud noise when she was five months , my grandson is now twenty . Loud noises still hurt his ears . The doctors say it was because of that loud noise while she was pregnant. Just my two cents

Vendor’s are a little nutty at most gun shows . I was at a gun show in Ontario last year , a guy was taking a Ruger 44 mag. semi , tube feed , to a vendor, 8 asked how much he sold it for . He sold it to the vendor for $400 . That’s not a super bad price considering they aren’t made anymore ...

A lot of members say they wouldn’t bid on a 7rm , most of the people bidding would probably do so because this might be the only way they will be able to get a custom rifle . Just my two cents

I’ll give those a try when it comes in , thanks for the info , much appreciated

This is my first post , i’ve been a reader up to this point . My kids , bless their hearts , bought me a Savage Axis 6.5 Creedmoor for Father’s Day . I’m a 7mm rm man so I know basically nothing about loading for the 6.5 . I know there are a whole bunch of guys on here that load and have a...

You won’t have an issue with a 550 grizzly it will pull a moose out whole with out even grunting, my brother and I have pulled five out with his

It’s rough having a spot like that to have to hunt every year but somebody has to do it.
