I’m sorry again for being off the grid. I had a wreck yesterday and didn’t get out of the hospital until late last night. And today I’ve been stiff and sore but I’m trying to respond to the messages. Thanks again everyone,
The rifle is built on a Remington action and yes it has been trued/blueprinted. The barrel is a 24” Lilja if I remember correctly. As far as the trigger, it looks to be one of the 40X triggers that were the last good ones made by Remington. I live in Alabama and the original owner was from...
I just want to apologize for not getting back to all of the messages, I’ve been out of town on my farm since posting this. I’m responding to all messages right after this reply and I really appreciate people’s questions.
I’m selling my fathers custom 7mm Rem mag with Zeiss 3-12x50. Very low round count, not exactly sure but less than 300. It’s been sitting in my safe for several years. The rifle has their own finish on the metal and their own custom stock. As it sits with scope and all the rifle weighs 7.8lbs. I...
I’ve got a 280AI and just built a 6.5x280AI, which is just a 280AI case necked down to 6.5mm. I’m trying to find the best load for the 6.5 and was wondering if I could use the same powders and charge weight for similar weight bullets. Like a Berger 6.5mm 140 vs 7mm Berger 140? I really want to...
I’ve got a 280 AI and lots of Nosler brass. So I decided to neck it down with a neck sizing die down to 6.5 and that’s all. I had a reamer made and let my smith keep it. I built it with a Stiller action and a Hardy Carbon fiber barrel. I’m a fan of 6.5 bullets. I want to try the Berger 156 EOL...
I’m looking for any load data for the 6.5x280 AI with 130gr to 150gr bullets. I’ve got 130gr Sierra TGK, 140 Nos BT, 143 ELDX, 140 Berger and a few others. I’ve got several powders but I’m going to get some RL26 for sure and possibly H1000.
I just finished having my 6.5x280 Ackley Improved Rifle build and I’m needing some load data if there’s any out there. I guess I will start with some lower charges for 140 grain Berger in 280 Ackley loads and go from there. If anybody has any suggestions I’m all ears? The rifle is 7 pounds...
