    Need a new stock weatherby backcountry

    Was there a lead-sled or similar device used during any shooting sessions? Have seen a few stock failures with shooters utilizing such devices to make bench shooting tolerable. My Backcountry TI is a gem to pack around and a tack driver when needed......it’s a witch on the bench. 6.5 RPM, Z3...

    .220 Swift - Non Lead - 1:14 twist

    The Berger stability calculator derives driving a bullet faster increases stability while utilizing the same bullet and twist rate.

    135 A-Tip 6.5 creedmoor

    I did though it was in a 22 inch bbl which was slow compared to 4350.

    What’s your five? 5 Calibers to do it all...

    50BMG 300PRC 6.5 something (probably RPM) 223/5.56 22LR Pistol is 9MM while shotgun is 12GA the 6.5 would go away for the 9MM not sure on the 12GA trade

    135 A-Tip 6.5 creedmoor

    Slow powder for the cartridge. You’ll be fine but it’s gonna be a dog even compressed. Get the Quick Load info and you’ll see what I’m saying. H4350 has been quite spectacular for myself with BR-2 and 450 primers depending on brass primer size. Slight favorable lean toward the 450 loads.

    Western Washington WTS/WTT

    can you re-thread a 1/2x28 muzzle brake into 5/8x24? It’s an aac 51 tooth suppressor adapter with lots of metal to work with. got a bunch of Cci 250 and Fed 155 primers to trade. Also looking for H1000 and rl26 I’m in Oly off exit 111

    300 PRC load development

    H1000 is gold these days, I’d use it if any was available. My PRC load is 77.0 gr Retumbo, 215M, Hornady brass, topped with 230 A-Tips. 3.7 coal gets 2890 with single digit sd. 28” 1:8 Bartlien. Shoots great at 1800yds and claims supersonic past 2k. You should do well with your combo.

    Brownells has them. A buddy bought some a few hrs ago.

    6.5 RPM load data

    Been working on a load for the new rifle. Factory ammo left a lot to be desired in the 127 LRX loads (2980-3040's with three different lot numbers vs factory 3225 spec). Worked up a load for the 135 A-tip which worked well on a couple of coyotes and a wolf last month. Finally acquired some...

    H-870 in 300 weatherby or 7828

    3140 is normal for a 30-378 load, it’s warm to hot in a 300WBY. How long is the bbl? I’d lean toward Re 26, 25, then 7828.
