Presume your barrel has something like 8 twist for running the 105 Amax ?

I use N555 and CCI 200 LR primers.

Labradar,  with stand, RAT and power pack, boxed, latest firmware, and can supply with a Peli case if reqd (although that will add to shipping cost). £300 posted without Peli.

Magnetospeed V3, cased, little used, immaculate, £275 posted.

7/300 WSM if you want to go 7mm

This cartridge has provenance in F Class to World Championship level and will get to a mile easily 

 

Though as Greg points out - spotting misses will be “problematic”

Heavier gun ?

A straightforward enough necking down of 300wsm brass ? I did notice Lapua were to be producing 300wsm brass as of this year.

I've read a fair bit into what's current in ELR, and no doubt the further you dip your toes in, it seems the cold shock of going in to your middle involves a lot of money and recoil. The recoil I could learn to manage, the money not so, or at least not without it becoming my sole obsession. 

Looking at the figures of a 184 Hybrid doing 3k, it's apparent that whilst offering a benefit over my straight 284, the gains are modest, just enough to be a bit more predictable at a mile, and that's kind of where I see my current goal.

I was hoping to hear if anyone was already pushing chamber dimensions, freebore etc beyond the SAMMI spec for running the 190s, pros and cons thereof.

This will be an interim build, based on a T3 winmag action. If, god forbid, I catch the bug fully, then I'd be looking to sell kidneys, kids etc....

Duplicate post

Anybody built/building a 7PRC ? Pondering this route for some modest ELR type shooting.

If you opt for Berger VLD, definitely look at their advice on seating depth testing. In my experience, it was quite obvious how they either liked a jam or a huge (.120") jump.

For what I do with the 243, 107SMK works, and 103ELDX.

And up

On the lookout for a .223 full length bushing type die, and would consider a set with seating die (standard dies, not arbor type).

Is this lapua brass..?

Aye, 'tis indeed. I wasn't aware there was any other type to be honest.

Just clearing the shelf, as I (sadly,wrongly or rightly) no longer have a '47.

Circa 220 that have been fired multiple times, but newly annealed and prepped, £85 plus postage.

All sold now thanks !

I've compared my ffp 30x Stryker alongside my mates ffp 7-35 ATACR, looking at steel out to 1600 or so. To me, the ATACR wins every time on clarity and the control of parallax (which is a wee bit of a let down on the Stryker. But then the ATACR is circa 2.5 times the price. If I was regularly into actual target stuff at those ranges, I'd go ATACR.

PM inbound Sir.
