Always One To Tinker... .300RUM w. 230 Hybrids?
lancetkenyon replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have had fantastic results shooting the Hybrids on game. BC is a hair better too. .717 vs. .710. Not that I would ever tell the difference. Seems like I see more of the Target Hybrids on the shelf more often than the Tactical Hybrid OTM. The OTM is a bit shorter, to help fit in a magazine better, but with the Wyatt's box, it won't matter as much. I am anticipating a .0500" jump anyway. Most of my other Hybrid loads have a .0500-.0700" jump in the sweet spot. -
Always One To Tinker... .300RUM w. 230 Hybrids?
lancetkenyon replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I run H1000 under my 210/215s. 85.5gr for the reduced load w. 210 HVLD. 90.3gr. w. 215 Hybrid. But both are seated deep to fit a standard LA mag. -
.300RUM pushing a 210 HVLD @ 3100fps. In all seriousness, I usually use a few different rifles. specifically for coyotes, a .223 pushing 50 VMax @ 3300 or .25-06 AI pushing an 85 NBT Varmint @ 3800fps,. When out multi-hunting, a .260 Rem or 6.5 SLR pushing a 95 V-max @ 3450-3550fps.

Ruger 10/22 custom barrels
lancetkenyon replied to HyNoon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have a Tactical Solutions 10/22. Shoots very nice, lightweight too. I will also be upgrading a factory stock 10/22 this year. I am looking at a Kidd barrel for that one. http://www.coolguyguns.com/KIDD-22LR-Fluted-Stainless-Steel-Rifle-Bull-Barrel_p_26.html -
Swift Scirocco bullets accuracy
lancetkenyon replied to apache12's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
The old factory Remington w. 180 Scirocco would not shoot well in my .300RUM. They killed my last elk back in 1999 though. -
What rifle should I sell

I have an 06. But it went on a diet, plus training regimen, and is now a .25-06AI. -

Kinetic bullet puller "BANG"
lancetkenyon replied to 5guyshunting's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have pulled probably 800-1000 with a kinetic hammer puller. Only thing that ever happened, that I thought was an ignition, was my RCBS hammer exploded. Just shattered into 5 or 6 pieces. Took me a while to find the head that captures the case. I also have a collet puller, but some factory loads don't have any bearing surface to grab, and the crimps are too tight to let go. So the kinetic gets them started. You are lucky Charlie. I don't think you would get enough pressure to be very dangerous, but might still cause some pain. -

I think your reasoning is spot on. Keep which one shoots best. -

2nd Official CWT 200 Yard Fun Shoot
lancetkenyon replied to lancetkenyon's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I got all the targets scored finally. I will post scores this weekend. I also got the 50 yard .22LR target worked up. Look for that shoot coming very soon. -
Dime size groups huh.... Just hacking on you. Nice rifle.

Until you have shot an 8oz trigger, you really can't imagine it. I love watching first timers shoot one. I tell them, don't even touch it until you are ready to fi....BOOM! Shock on their face, then a smile.

That would mean I had to wait to play with my toys!!!

I am 180° from 300RUM. I have a Timney 510 @ 1.5#, a 512 @ 1.5#, and two Calvin Elite @ 8oz. each. The best triggers I have ever shot. I also have a Shilen Match @ 1.5# which is very nice. I have shot Jewell, TriggerTech, tuned factory Remmy, CMC, Rifle Basix, and a Jard. I have not tried a Bix'N Andy, X-treme Shooting, or Tubb 700....yet. I think the Calvin Elite is worth every penny. Super crisp, no creep, adjustable to very light pull weight, nice and thin shoe.

Do you know how hard it is to walk into the house while your wife is standing in the kitchen with a new scope box hidden under your shirt and her NOT see it? Even a bouquet of flowers can't hide that...

Picatinny rail does not contact scope objective bell. It is close, but I can slip a dollar between it.

Bump. I have an interested party....as long as his wife lets him buy it! Smart man, getting the wife's approval.
