I have some 140 ELD-M, but alas, they are for 6.5SLR, not 6.5 creedmor...

I have a Manfrotto pistol grip. I only use it for a spotter while shooting. It does not work well for glassing. I have a couple Manfrotto pan heads too. Night and day better for glassing.

Just hacking on you guys, but I honestly do tip my taxidermist. I do not ask for run of the mill standard mounts. I try to get something a bit different.

Actually, I do my own plumbing. And I did tip my HVAC guy 2 summers ago.

Wow. Bunch of cheap-asses around here.

First post, asking for unicorn tears....welcome.

I always tip. It is, after all, still a service.

I think he was referring to the statement "I buy new Nosler brass and only shooting it once".

Trigger pull weight on long range hunting rifle?
lancetkenyon replied to loboscout's topic in Long Range Shooting
4 to 8oz. No creep & crisp (to say the least). Even being used to shooting 7-8oz....4oz is really light. Definitely no need to think "squeeze slowly". Your pulse is too strong, and it sends it.... -

My brother's 600 yard kill shot
lancetkenyon replied to Bryson Bendall's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I did not watch the entire video, but why "not legal"? Why do you say "no tag"? Definitely not "night hunting" if you watched the video. I do agree with the 7-08 though! And the video comment of "14 shots today" has me uneasy too. -
I use an iGuaging 6" EZ Cal. But Mitutoyo or Starett are the top dogs. I measure to .0005" when seating bullets.
-
I only trim when I get within .002" of max case length. Then trim to minimum. Depending on case design, could be every third firing or every sixth.

Not in a 6.5PRC. But I have in my two 6.5SSs. A bit more horsepower than the PRC though. Great combo. -
SELLING MEOPTA S2 SPOTTER WITH 30-60 WA EYEPIECE
lancetkenyon replied to Chanaman13's topic in Classified Ads
Great spotters. I had one for years. -
Actually, it is kind of the opposite. Brass "work hardens" from firing and sizing. Which causes "springback", neck cracking/splitting, inconsistent sizing, etc. Annealing softens it, meaning consistent sizing and neck tension. I anneal every single time I size/load. I want my brass the same hardness each time I load it. Not a little harder, then a little harder, then a little harder, then annealing it back to soft. This works for for some guys, but I want consistency. I do not know if it helps that much, but even .05" better accuracy helps. So does low ES/SD from a consistent tension. Steel is tempered (hardened), by being heated and quickly cooled.

MAP gas, torch, deep socket, cordless drill here. I do probably 9-11k a year.
