Next if it falls through....

And both are nearly identical to the 6,5 PRC which has lots load data for newer powders.

That’s a heck of a good price.

I really don’t think I understand the question. There are many reticles that have accurate hold overs. An example is Leupold’s TMOA. Whether I dial 10 MOA at 750 yards or use the 10th MOA hash it’s the same thing. are these “hold over marks”?

Second on Lance's IMR7977 recommendation. It is becoming one of my favorite powders. I use it in my STW with 160's and 168's. I also had good results with it in the 7RM.

I’ve loaded for two different friends 7mm lately. Both rifles really like IMR 8133. Temp insensitive, copper eliminating, and usually available. I just worked up a load for another friends 300 Rum with H1000 then found out we couldn’t get any more and at over 90 grains per pop a pound doesn’t go very far.

To Fragment, or not to Fragment..

I don’t know about picking up radio stations but years ago I was implementing an ultrasonic welding process for a medical product. An associate complained that every time we actuated the machine her teeth hurt from some metal in her mouth. Well being engineers and all we ran a controlled blind study....and she correctly identified machine actuation 100% of the time. So maybe I’m not ruling out radio stations either? I have many guns that shoots monos well under moa. Depending on the cartridge they would give me a practical range of 600-850 yards. We’ve had great performance with Barnes LRX down to about 2000fps. Never shot anything with less velocity. Although I shoot long range I really don’t hunt long range by today’s standards so the Barnes work for me. Having said that I usually sight my STW with ABLR (it shoots them well) and have a few in my pack just in case... -

I went back to a recurve in 1989. I shoot a hybrid long bow now.

What's with the traditional arrows in yoiu Avatar?

I shoulda taken before and after pictures. This is my bench since 1982. It was gifted to a new reloader .

From InLine Fabrication. It’s removable so I can take the RC off and put the Dillon on I’m impressed (no pun) so far https://inlinefabrication.com/collections/quick-change-press-mounting-system

I really hope a Democrat doesn’t get elected. I can’t afford their firearm stimulus programs. -
I was fortunate to be able to help Cuco Del Cid of Rancho.Bonito.Trophy.Hunts in Sonora last week. Dr Michael Sisk killed a great buck. Only 15-4” of main beam and 12-2” inside spread, but 32-5” of mass. IMG_8355.MOV IMG_8664.MOV

Ruffs in Flagstaff.

He scores about 113”. There is probably over 10” missing with the broken eye guard and 2 Broken in lines. If unbroken he would be in the 120s easy. BTW those bucks you killed are amazing. Congrats.

I just bought a leupold 5-25x mark 5HD. I havnt mounted it yet but it sure seems impressive. I might have to upgrade my VX5s and VX6s.

According to Swarovski the 25-50 eyepiece has a larger FOVat 25x than the BTX/85 combo (although 30x). the people I know who prefer the twin spotting scopes tell me it’s because of the brightness and the ability to zoom. Jason in Tucson has apparently solved the collimation issues with his mount. I’ve seen his bracket and it looks top notch. The IPD issue is why I haven’t looked through a set...
