For all your enlarged primer pocket problems with the Warbird brass, get a Hart's Case Saver (large rifle) and it will have you back in business, at the price of around $35.00, you don't have to save alot of Warbird brass to make it pay for itself.
Ihave the IOR-Valdada 6-24-50 with the MP-8 reticle. It is mounted on a Sako TRG-S in 7.82 Warbird. In my opinion as a novice, it is comparable with any of the high dollar leupolds or nightforce; as I have them on other rifles as comparison. The Valdada I have holds a zero like nothing I have...

The vertical section of the reticle can be set up in "mil" graduations, after bracketing a 36" target at exactly 100 yards with the bottom portion of the vertical reticle (10 equal sections), I found that "mil" was at 12 power on my scope. This allows me to use the center of the reticle as my...

sir,
what twist rate is your barrel,and what bullet(s) do you prefer? i have been handloading the 7.82 warbird for almost 3 years and have a few loads which work in my rifles.. and yes, you probably will want a muzzle brake..
I have a Nightforce 8-32 with the NP-R2 reticle and it extremely accurate, i only wish they would put the reticle in the first focal plane. if you want to use it to "mil" try setting it on 12 power, that is where "Mil" is on mine. A great product. I live in south florida and on hot and humid...

I have a Sako TRG-S chambered for the Lazzeroni 7.82 Warbird. After changing to H-1000 and Ramshot Big Boy this rifle shoots really well. I put a Leupold 4.5-14x50 Mildot scope on it and zeroing it at 230 yards it CONSISTANTLY hits a 14" steel disc in excess of 1000 yards by holding 5.2 mils...
