Re: Stiller Viper 7mm RSAUM

It states in the article this powder has similar burning rate to 2208, yet when i look on the ADI website it rates slower than BM2 but faster than 2206. Whats peoples experience with this powder so far. Im thinking of t...

Re: 7mm [.284] or 6.5x47L ?

If and when my 6.5x47L dies, i was thinking the 260ai or 260 SLR would be my next 6.5 round. I find this calibre still quite mild to shoot.

I was just wondering if there was a point to wax coating? i have read that once the bullets are moly coated you should do a wax coating step to help stop the bullets attracting moisture. I use a Lyman Turbo 1200 tumbler with the ...

I went to a local sandbalasting supply shop and bought a 25kg bag of Garnet for $35.

Mmm thats the one hey. I was thinking id like another 6.5mm and was think the 260AI might have been good. Not a barrel burner like the 6.5-284.

The 6.5 Super looks even better cause of the long neck....
