Hope to get out on the range with my latest seating ladder today. As simple as shooting a couple 3 rnd groups in each seating length might seem, I have always been able to find improvements using...
Same happened to me. I was very happy with a Berger 135 gn fb bullet in .308, then they stopped producing it. Had a friend making 135s for me using Berger jackets and he convinced be to go to his own...
Working on tuning the seating depth of my 73 gn Berger bullets and precision bolt loads. After finding the powder load, now even more fun. Loading 6 each .010 jamb, touching, .030 off,.070 off and...
Refining my 223 load ladder for the 73 gn Berger and Varget in Startline brass. Will be pulling a couple hundred bullets that were loaded with 23 gn now that I have taken the time to see the load was...

Wondering if any of you AR folks are using a JARD set trigger? Just ordered one to go along with my Uintah precision bolt AR.
Out playing with a Savage 223 this morning on one of the flyswatter targets at 100 yds. A little windy but what the hey. Only scored an 8 after doing a 10 with her big brother in .308 last week....
What a generous offer.
Just so you know, these rifles are not new to me by any means. Have had them for over 30 years and just bringing them back out of the darkness for the halibut. I have been enjoying precision shooting...
Today I replaced the original trigger with a Triggertech Diamond and set it to a nice 4.5 oz break. Whatta Hobby!
Worked on the 700 .308 26" 1-12 barrel with Bell and Carlson chassis in the shop this morning, for a short time. Got the old trigger down from 5lbs to 1.5. Waiting for the 4 oz Jewel trigger which...
Enjoying what you are shooting is what it is all about. The thing I like about this setup is that it may not be super accurate, but it is consistent every time and should not be effected by moisture...
This is posted on the M14BR forum, alpha range. One of the ranges we run all sorts of challenges on.

41.4 ended up being the choice. ran a couple more load ladders after the previous photo today with a temp of 25 degrees and a light wind. Last one was 41.3, 41.4 and 41.5 just for the halibut and...
Loading up this morning for the final .1 of the ladder I have been working on with Lapua .308 brass, 210 M primers and Varget. Using the 41.6 from the last target set as a center point. Loads will be...
It's all fun. I have a couple of teenage great grandsons in Maine and they are enjoying shooting the M-14s I have built up for my son. Even got my boy, who was in the Corps during Desert Storm,...
