Dumb question... what is the difference between an ultramag reciever and a standard mag receiver? Feed rails (probably not, the feed rails are formed in the box, arent they)? Box length? Something else?

Free bump. I can't believe this is still here. If I hadn't just quit my job and started a new company, it wouldn't be.

I also started with SAAMI. One 300PRC and one 7PRC. Both developed clickers on reload #3. I dont own a 6.5PRC, but reports are that it suffers the same affliction. As an aside, I did full load workup on the SAAMI chamber. Both rifles shot the same load, to the same POI and with the same...

All the deliberation aside, and in my experience of only 2, a SAMMI chamber is going to have clickers on or about the 3rd reload. With ADG brass, my clickers verged on "stickers". Sizing dies simply can not size the web down far enough to avoid it. Some have had marginal luck with "small...

Is both ever the wrong answer? Then you can ream one to AI and not have 2 of the same. And you would make @memtb proud in the process.

And shoots beautifuly!

I'll second everyone else on the weatherby stock. I bought a vanguard (backcountry?) Which ever one they had for a while with a fluted barrel and composit stock for ~$800... In 300wby, with 180s, it kicked. With a new 300PRC barrel and 215-225s, it was no fun at all. With the new new 7PRC...

It sounds like we do a lot of the same. That one was shot off the cab of my truck. He just happened to be a leisurely fella and gave my kid time. I do wonder what it would have done with a solid shield shot, and I'll update as more data is gathered. You might try 108 and 123gr Scenars. I...

My son finally sealed the deal this weekend. I am pretty impressed with the 123 ELDM performance at short barrel (16") 6.5CM velocities. 1/4 away shot entered at the front lobe of the liver and traversed the chest cavity length wise into the lungs and heart, making soup and minced meat. It left...

Haha, Nilgai was my excuse for building a 9.3x62... Ive only hunted them with archery and never closed the deal, so an extra range excuse made sense. Do I require a LR nilgai rig too?

If a "handy" manuverable rifle is the pick of the day, a 16 or 18" barrel chambered in what ever it takes to get your desired bullet to required velocity. (18" 7PRC for me. 180ELDMs at 2815fps) Open counrty and cross canyon, a heavier weight and longer barrel. Again, chambered in what ever it...

Both are way more than we need for our hill country white tail... but ****, that 338 looks like a lot of fun for still having your pants on!

I just got back from the range. No change except the lack of clickers. It's still shooting the same loads at the same velocity into tiny little groups.

Is your 7 a Manson solid pilot too? @prcwv see above

I did my 300 with your reamer. I didn't know you had a 7. I guess I should have asked.
