activeviii Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I didnt like the plain black of the Ruger Precision Rifle so adjusted is with the cerakote. I like it. even if it has taken a bit of work to get the Bronze to the right shade. Now im just trying to break the barrel in and get the n150 working with 140gr ELD-M, im getting there but only down to 20mm 4 shot group at 200 meters on the open range today.

activeviii Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I will do once I get piggie bank lid off. That £40 now is going on powder so it has to wait until either you have a sale and post to me for £40 or until I can learn to play guitar and start busking. Anyone have a guitar?

activeviii Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Gunner, get lost, you turned your nose up at it to start with when i told you the plan. you also didnt like my knob as you said it was wrong shape and to small. just as well i can make a change on that. also in going to make a new stock extender to give me a couple more inches to pull at. thank all for kind words. just need to get it to shoot straight now.

Wazzer Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Mine shot 139gn scenar with N150, and used Reloaded 15 with 140gn Amax. Have just. Loaded 123gn scenar with n150 to try on Thursday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I didn't even to think to try N150. I've found RS 60 (RL 17) and H4350 works best in mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 gunner are you also a male escort as you were mentoring the rifle does look good though I could show u the ropes lol . Yes need to try 4350 , in it as most people say thats the powder , once phils got his new toy grouping nicely ( wtih my help ) were planning to do our first mile long gong , thats going to be fun , is a 300mm gong a little bit optarmistic ? Weel warm up at 1k first - may have to walk it in a little ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazzer Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I got good groups with Reloader 15, best being 0.122" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst your their old bean.... Yes Sir. H-4350. It's what the cartridge was designed to burn. The smallest group I have seen fired at 1000 yards across rugged terrain was using the CM and the load listed on the Hornady box. When my 6.5 arrives it will be the load I use.~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted March 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Out of interest what is a good realistic grouping at 200 meters. Gunner is showing off with his 6br and 7mm groups but I'm a mere mortal so don't know what I can exspect with a factory rifle like the ruger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 At 200 yards I have repeatedly witnessed sub -quarter MOA from my friends 6.5 RPR. A .203" was the smallest 5-shot group I've seen at 200 from his rifle. This is not with A-Max, however. Sierra MK's. My 308 will sometimes place 10 shots inside a 1-inch circle at the same distance. If I do my part, that is...~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted March 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 i tried a box of factory amax today. 2" at 200. well thats pants lol. i have got down to .45 at the moment. only reason its all H4350 is because they all love the Hodgdons over the pond. just been doing quickload run downs and it looks like h414 might be a touch better be R17 might be a little better still so i will look into that one a little more if i cant use the N150. we, gunner and i, today did more testing and i think a change of bullets first and the match kings might just be what i will try first so thanks for that. atb Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Well.....yes, we love Hodgdons. We might swoon for Vhit powders if they weren't 30% more money than Hodgdon and in limited availability / variety at the few shops that carry them.~Andrew.
