    heart rate control, etc.

    I'm sure this subject has been discussed a lot, but the search function was overwhelming. I'm preparing to go elk hunting this fall, I've shot about 400 rounds through my .300 WSM. Off a good rest, I'm sub MOA at 300 yards. My challenge is holding steady beyond that. I can consistently hit...

    resizing 300 WSM

    Need some guidance here. I'm on my 5th loading of my 300 wsm brass and I notice the bolt is becoming "snug" to close. (Tikka T3stainless) I've only neck sized to this point, with only one round of trimming to length. Last night I FL resized one case andit chambered easily again. My...

    sight in question...I should know this

    Sighting in 300 WSM using barnes 168TTSX at a muzzle velocity of 3080 fps. The rifle is a Tikka T3 stainless with a Leopould VX3 4.5-14 scope. How do I know where the "zero" is on the rifle? I'm trying to get correct ballistics info. Here's what I have now: My point of impact is 3.7...

    velocity drop in 300 wsm

    Check me on this: Loading a 168 Barnes TTSX and getting just under 3200 fps with .75 - 1.0 MOA...which is great for me. I upped the charge by a .5 grain and noticed a velocity DROP by 100 fps with inconsistent chronograph readings. Groups were about same. Using RL22, 71 grains, compressed...

    300 WSM and compressing powder

    Hi all I'm working with my tikka 300 WSM and am using RL22 as propellant. I tried 5 shots each at 100 yards with 67.o, 68.0, 69.0 and 70.o grains, because I swear 70 grains was listed as the max load on Alliant's website at one point in time. The 5 shot group with 69 grains i could...

    1100 action spring tube...

    Hi all I am in the middle of shortening a stock on an 1100 20 gauge for my 7 year- old. I could get another 1/2" out of the stock if I used a regular nut versus the threaded nut provided, which is pitted and needs to be replaced anyway. Does anyone know the size nut which would work on the...
