.25 Creed! But Why?
I recall an older article in maybe Handloader or Rifle magazine [possibly by Ron Spomer] discussing the 6.5 x 06. The parting shot was if you had or could get a .270Win why would you want or need a 6.5 x 06. Dang good cartridge IMO.- antelopedundee

.25 Creed! But Why?
Yet for as long as it's been around as a popular wildcat no major manufacturer of firearms or ammunition has chosen to legitimize the 6.5-06.- antelopedundee

6.5-284 Norma vs. 6.5-284 Winchester
I want to use 6.5 x 284 in a 25 x 284. My 25 was made in late 1991 or early 92. I assume [and maybe wrongly so] that at least the body of the reamer was made to SAAMI specs. Back then I acquired 2 die sets, a Redding neck die set a RCBS FL set. I also got a RCBS file type trim die. I was able...- antelopedundee

Scope Ring Honing
It should be the operator's responsibility to see that his fixture is properly maintained and his tooling like drill bits, etc. is properly sharpened unless quantity slop over quality work is deemed good enough. Why couldn't Remington even get the handle properly soldered to the bolt body such...- antelopedundee

Picatinny rail or reg bases for mark v and vx6 scope?
Pic rails supposedly eliminate the need to lap rings. I like the look of the Leupold Mark 4 rings, but the steel ones plus your scope will add noticeable weight.- antelopedundee

Scope Ring Honing
Remington actions are/were mass produced usually [I'm guessing] CNC equipment. So what do you think it might add costwise and timewise to produce actions that are within "blueprint" specs? Such actions should pretty much align right on the gnat's a$s with scope bases and mounts, assuming the...- antelopedundee

New scope for my 22-250?
A little over 6 bills TYD if you can swing it and want the extra power. https://www.leupold.com/vx-3hd-6-5-20x40-efr-cds-t-fine-duplex-riflescope- antelopedundee

Scopes for lefties??
Just recently purchased another scope from Schmalts a Leupold 182502. Since it has a AO, I've mounted it like I normally would. Might try to hunt with it if I draw an antelope tag.- antelopedundee

Blending powders
I would posit that blending Reloder 19 and Reloder 17 is akin to blending skim milk and 2% milk, but I wouldn't say that 50% of each would get you Reloder 18. It wouldn't surprise me that the maximum possible spec to qualify Reloder 17 as a cannister powder is the same as or nearly the same...- antelopedundee
