I actually just did my little experiment. I took 5 rds of mixed-headstamp .223. This was my standard 600-yd load of 24.5 gr of RE15 under a moly-ed Sierra 80 lit off by a Wolf SRM. Five different...

I'll bump it one more week and then I'll take it down. New price on these is around $1000 without a scope/rings/mount.

This.
I use a Stony Point gauge to find OAL minus .02 when I re-barrel and just leave them there for the life of the barrel.

Excellent thinking. My buddy just bought a slightly used Service Rifle with a fresh Krieger barrel for $1000.

Your rifle may or may not be appropriate. Does it have a float tube under the hand guards? What twist barrel? What weight bullets are you loading? Etc., etc.. More info on what you have is needed....

Vermont kicks ass. Many friends over there.

So would mine, but I don't think either one of us hold many organized competitions, hunter safety courses, public sight-in days, or host Boy Scouts, Junior teams, etc..

Without NRA support, most ranges wouldn't exist.

I'm not quite getting the joke?

Are you asking how much MOA you get with each click? A 1/2 minute base screw is a coarse thread and a 1/4 is pretty fine.
Mathematically, you can figure it out with a micrometer; 1 moa is about...

I do. I seem to remember a bottle of Rye, also.

If you want to go as low as 2 lbs, I'd second the recommendation for Jewell.

So does that make 12pts?
Here's the plan: shoot Vermont Memorial Day weekend. Usually an 8 pointer up there. That makes 20. Then you go out at Perry and we get drunk. Done.

Looks like Jason S. came in 3rd among non-Distinguished in the EIC today! I think that must be an 8-pointer!
Nice, Jason!

Bumped with a different scope to sweeten the deal. Leupold 10x.

The blame may, or may not be the rifle or the ammo. I don't think it's irrational, however, to think their may be an ammo problem when the rifle never had an issue before using this particular brand....

I would agree that he needs to have his rifle checked. However, he's run a ton of non-Tula. 308 through it with no problem.
Throat erosion has nothing to do with anything kaboom-related.
I don't...

I was on a job yesterday and another carpenter showed me this case:
66130
Steel-cased Tula .308 sold by Cabela's in a Herter's box.

He was shooting his Ishapore rifle and heard a really loud...

They are holding a 2700 Bullseye Match up there the same weekend. Check the website. They are allowing those competitors to stay in the barracks free of charge. WTF?

Bumped with a separate rifle/scope price.

I need to go back to High School English class. I thought the "gallop" pronunciation would be the Flat "A". It's been a while.

Pronounce scallop with a flat "A" up here and you are immediately pegged as an idiot.
It's pronounced like you say "wall", not "pal".

I paid for a snowmobile with my Cabela's card just to get the points.

A Cabela's card?
