key word, entry level, my future daughter in law 5.3, 115 pounds likes the 6.5 and is able to group 3/4 or better moa. I have started loading for it and she is being consistent in her groups. Doing her part in eradicating the pigs off the farm.

I have an eighties mk5 270that wouldn’t shoot factory at all. Worked with it about 2 thou closer to the lands and it would then shoot 1/2 to 3/4. Still have it.

A rifleman,no! But what catches a woman’s fancy is unpredictable.

Is this with which bullets, Berger,Nosler? The ogive might make a difference.

. I asked and was told , just because”, concerning the neck which is .2846 saami and the AW print is .2852. The chamber or the .200 line seems to be of concern if using ADG or possibly Peterson brass being of heavier construction sticking “ clickers “ after several loads, not an issue if you...

When I was a teenager you could pick up a box for 2 bucks a box. A little steep.

I have a charge master supreme and have the straw over the dispenser tube not in and it helps but it still drifts higher. There is a way to reset the machine but I haven’t tried it. I use another scale to re measure and it is about two to four kernels off. Just enough to make a difference.

I'm what state would that be? The cost of hay just keeps going up. When I started ranching in 87 you could buy coastal hay for 12/15 a round bale (heavy bales) and sack feed at 2.00 dollars. Last year coastal was at 160 and sack feed at 13 if you could get any local hay. It’s been like this for...
