  2. I can't help with a load for the 75gr Hornady but I use 77gr SMK in mine and found N140 wouldn't get decent speeds with the heavier bullets as the powder was compressed with 22.4gr in the case so I couldn't get up to the next node (just over 2400 fps but great groups), I've used both RS40 & RS52 with much better results (22.8gr giving 2830 fps and still not compressed), there's probably a Vhit equivalent but I'm not sure what it is and I can get my hands on RS powders easier.

    The numbers above aren't any use for the load that you're developing for BUT you can see the capacity\speed difference between powders, Reload Swiss has a good website with their load guide.

    Completely agree with you on this one. No winners anywhere with this situation 

     

    Unfortunately this is true, I have already heard some club members from one of the clubs I shoot with (including a club secretary) mentioning that they will no longer support the FCSA due to only hearing one side of a story (and not interested the other side), it would probably be worthwhile the FCSA putting their story across in full if Marc had already lost the shooting rights as I can only imagine this conversation hasn't only happened in the club that I'm in.

    Hi

    I am pondering if i should upgrade the stock on my Ruger American  predator .223 . I read an article  on thames valley guns where he upraded his .308 predator using the Magpul hunter stock, he reported a significant gain in accuracy, I am quite happy with the current accuracy of mine, sub MOA (just) at 100 meters, using home loads 24.5gr N140 with 69 gr Sierra Tipped Match kings, but was wondering if i could squeeze a little more out of it, plus it woudl be nice to have a more adjustable stock.

    However not sure what stock would be suitable ? it would appear that the Magpul stock is not suitable for a .223 rifle ? also looked at boyds but was not sure what would be suitable. So has anyone upgraded a .223 predator ? if so using what stock. Thanks Neil

     

    Is your current stock the newer AI magazine one? I've read there's a different in the bolts between the older and newer designs (this was for a 308 so may not be the same with the .223).

    Where are you based? I' could pull the stock off my 6.5 for you to try if you're either in the North East or go to Bisley (I have some MDT AI .223 mags to try too).
