Thank you, and man I completely agree! It would be a great, unbiased comparison.
People will still want to write it off as “it’s not the same on an animal”. Even though, my personal bullet performance on animals has been basically identical to how they perform in calibrated ballistics gel. So I...
I’ve been uploading my own personal kill shot videos, and few of my friends to YouTube so other people seeking out first hand visuals of how bullets perform can get an idea of each different bullet. But I’m only one man, and can only kill so many things hahaha. But I would like to expand the...
I put my trijicon tenmile in these rings when they first came out. I’ve never removed the scope. I put witness marks on the tube when I first mounted it. This is torqued around the tube at 22in lbs with blue loctite. This is over 500 rounds of 300 Norma and 7-300 Norma. Hasn’t budged. I like the...
One of the rifles for the 2024 season is done. 7-300 Norma Mag Improved. Decided to go with a 26” Brux 1-9 twist #6 contour. As the gun sits, without bipod, it’s 10.93lbs. It’ll eventually going into a stock that’s 10oz lighter putting it in the low 10’s. Should be just right as far as weight...
Good question. I’m assuming the difference between zero friction, and some friction, is larger than the difference between some friction, and more friction.
But yes, mine speed up once they start cracking and stabilize once the cracking is like 1/4” into the throat
Legit proof that 4 groove barrels are harder on jackets than 5 grooves?
Does groove count affect accuracy at all in any statistical significance?
How does he personally feel about steel vs. carbon barrels? Pros and cons?
If he had to shoot one contour for every hunting application, what...
Hahaha understandable 😅. But this is where like 75% of my extra income goes. I have a 15 year old car and 15 year old truck, and only a mortgage for a bill. I don’t have big expensive toys. Just rifles and scopes 🤣🤣.
Hell, for one brand new truck these days, you can get 10 customs rifles and...
Switched the gun over to a thinner profile #5 contour barrel. 23” finish length. Still in 7-300 NMI. Scoped weight in this configuration is 9.7lbs.
Shot pretty good out at distance in this configuration.
Killed a pig with it also.
Probably switch it over to a slightly heavier barrel and...
It would be on both the inside and outside. I’ve never shot anything but handloads in my 6.5 PRC AW chambers. I would try some Lapua brass handloads before over analyzing any further honestly. There’s nothing that can really be in the chamber that would cause it. It’s just a concentric tube that...
Thanks man! JGS reamers will cut you anything you can dream up lol. They are also super helpful! In this specific case, I’d already had several of the Alex Wheeler 300 Norma Improved chambers done. So basically just called them, and them asked for the same case body specs, but with a neck for...
