.308 Lapua Brass, Bullets and Dies

But when you factor in the carriage cost, these might work out cheaper. -

While you're up at Diggle, call into Osprey Rifles and have a word with Stuart, he should be able to put you straight. Cheers. Paul

Just a thought, but.....if you're going to use that amount of magnification at those distances, the target is going to be rather close up, so I might suggest a scope with 1/8th MOA clicks would be better suited, rather than 1/4 MOA and definitely much better than any Mil clicks. That should give you a better target acquisition in my opinion. Good luck with whatever you choose and try to see if you can have alook through some of your fellow shooters scopes. Cheers. Paul

Magneto speed Sporter
pengo replied to Minion's topic in Target Shooting & Informal Long Range Shooting Practice
I have the Sporter model and it isn't designed for use with a moderator fitted. I tend to develop my loads with the mod or muzzle break I'm going to use on the rifle and when I've found an accurate load, I simply remove it and then Chrono the load, much like Pat has said, there's not too much difference in FPS then. It's a great piece of kit, which is great value for money, in my opinion. Hope this helps. Cheers. Paul -
Hi there Al. Just to add my two penneth to the above statements of records held by the 6.5x47 Lapua, I can also agree that they really are everything and more you can expect in terms of accuracy, as I hold the current UK Benchrest record for the highest score at 1,000 yards, with a 98 ex 100, with 11 x V-Bulls, again this was done with my 6.5x47.

Do you mind me asking what rifle you had this done to and how much it cost, please? Is it an easy fix, or did you have to takeit to Baldie? I've got a Tikka 595 in 6BR and it's an absolute joy to own and use, but the mag feed issue does bug me, I have to say. Cheers. Paul

That's really sad news. I've had many good deals and conversations with him over the years. RIP Steve.

Hi Neil, Thank you very much for your detailed information, it's much appreciated. I think I'll bear in mind what you have said and work uploads starting at 8.3 up to 10.1 in 0.3 increments and keep checking for pressure signs. I'm not sure how hard the bullet is, but it is RNFP, lubed and gas checked. I have bought these from the Shellhouse Bullet Company and not cast them myself. Hopefully things should be good. Many thanks Paul

Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for acquiring load data for a 165gn lead bullet in my Marlin 30/30 underlever, please? I have checked in the Lyman cast bullet handbook, but there is only data for 169gn & 170gn. I'll be using Alliant Unique powder and want to get things as good as I can before load development. Many thanks Paul

Just contact Dave Wylde - Valkyrie Rifles - 9-5 Monday to Friday - 07889 388378. https://www.valkyrierifles.net/index.html Also known as Baldie on this forum. He's the only officially approved service centre for Accuracy International and he can supply and fit any barrel you choose onto your AX AI rifle, which includes Sassen. He's a great bloke, who'll talk you through everything. Cheers Paul

I'd like to think one of these might be mine, Lubo..... Cheers. Paul

Hi everyone. Looking on QuickLoad it shows good results with Viht 140 and 130gn TMK, 139gn Scenars or 140gn ELD-Match so I was just wondering if it's worth pursuing as I haven't heard or read of anyone using this.... Cheers Paul
-
+2 on that one. I'm quite a Luddite when it comes to technology, so I'd also be happy to pay to have these made. It would make my life so much easier.... Just my thoughts. Cheers. Paul

Some lovely looking works of art, you have sir. Quite like the front rest as well...I don't suppose it's needing a new home by any chance!!!
