This rifle has factory action and barrel with about 1200 rounds fired through it, Using 162 AMAX and 72 gr of H1000 it will shoot 1/2" and better. Ted Ulmer a gunsmith from Potters Mills, Pa., added a muzzle break, pillar bedding, and reworked the trigger which can be set to 1 lb. It is set at...

I am reloading for a 7mm WSM in a Mod 70 Win Coyote, it still has the original chambering and about 1400 rounds through it. I am using a Redding bushing die. Not to long ago I discarded a bunch of brass because the bullets slipped inside the mouth after using the same bushing (.312) as I always...

I've been reloading and shooting for probably 30 years, never on a competetive level. Reloading and shooting was like golf, some days I would par the hole the next time double bogey. Thanks to all of you I feel like I can par every hole now. I have a 7mm Rem Mag Mod 700, Mod 70 Coyote 7mmWSM...

If I use the load data listed for the 270WSM and reduce it 5% will I be safe?

I'm reloading for a 7mm WSM using a Redding bushing die. I've noticed on other dies as well as Redding, the inside neck dimension is .280, when using a button. My loaded shells are at.313 so I used a .312 bushing. When measuring the inside neck it comes out to .281, and when using a .313 it...

Thanks Crispin, Would this be the same as saying that the case is to big in reference to the caliber size? Does this have an adverce affect on accuracy? If so, Why? What I'm having trouble with is this... Many post here and on other sites say that the 6.5 WSM is overbored. If a 140 AMAX say...

Could someone please explain to me what this is?

Will consider any weight or style, but specifically looking for some Nosler 180gr Ballistic Tips. Cannot find anywhere, even called Nosler but will not be advailable till Spring 05. Would consider buying 1-5 boxes if right item. e-mail Tom at: [email protected] Thanks

The gun: Win Mod 70 7mmWSM (factory barrel, pillar bedded and tiggerwork done) Outside neck dimension of new, unfired cases: .316 Outside neck dimension of fired case: .324 Outside neck dimension after resizing using RCBS dies: .314 Outside neck dimension when loaded: .316 These numbers...

Re: Seating depth? what\'s the limit? I just dealt with the same problem in My Model 70 Coyote 7MM WSM. I smoked the bullets and found that the 162 grn AMAX's just touched the land at 3.075. Using identical loads and only changing the seating depth this gun shoots the best at 3.045. It seems to...

I went to purchase a set of Redding Type S Bushing Match Neck Dies today from Midway but found that it would take 30+ days to get. I really don't want to wait that long if it isn't neccesary. Does anyone know where I could get them without waitng that long? Or maybe you have another...

When preparing cases using a bushing die, and also neck turning after, would this change the size of the neck bushing? I've yet to use this method and the primary components that I will be using is Winchester brass and the 162 gr AMAX or 7MMWSM. I read Reddings Tech Talk info on how to select...

I've shot about 900 rounds through my 7mm WSM. The reloads that I shoot chamber well, and give satisfactory (.5 and less @ 100 yds) results. I've always just resized the neck and as stated never had chambering problems. I measure each shell after they are loaded and the neck dimension is pretty...

I've had one since they came out. I love the gun. Had some tune ups done by a smith. Had it pillar bedded, trigger work (2lbs) and a break installed. My pet load is 74 grns of H1000 and the Hornady 162 AMAX's/ It consistently prints .5 @ 100 with the factory barrel. It's not a light gun, but...

I've finally decided on building a 7mm for 1k shoots. Don't ask me why or I'll switch to the 6.5/284. What I'd like to know if it's possible, how much is it the shooter or the caliber?
