Does anyone know if the vortex rings are still made by seekins? Gun build is almost finished so its time to order scope and rings. Need 35mm rings but seekins says backordered. I can find the vortex all over the place thought that was a little weird. Thanks!

Thanks guys. I was referring to vortex precision matched rings.i bet are made by seekins still they still look the same just seems a little odd that the seekins 35mm lows are impossible to find and the vortex are pretty abundant.

Check your new base to ogive length and see if it changed. Adjust your seating depth to where your load was so your distance off the lands is still the same.it shouldnt change much.But I would check it. Look up panhandle precision on YouTube Sam does a real good job about explaining all of this... all of his videos are excellent.

I would guess brass is swelling and is in need of a full length sizing. I used to neck size and would have to FL size every 4th loading. A handful of rounds start to get to tight to chamber. (Not good in a hunting situation)Kind of a pain to "start over" with the brass so I just went to the .002" shoulder bump, full length size every time and have had very good results. No more neck sizing for me.

Magnum bolt face?

Are you full length or neck sizing?

I have been told and read as long as I can remember. That if you seat your bullets "too deep" you will "rob" case capacity and increase pressure which logically seems like it would be true but my experience always seems to say this is B.S. Everything my chrono, cases and drop at distance has told me is that the deeper that I seat the bullet the slower less pressure I have. The closer I get to the lands the faster and hotter the load. I've seen this in all my rifles that i have played with seating depth in. Example from this weekend loading for a 7 rem mag 180gr Berger Vld hunting 69.7grs H1000 .030" off lands 2910fps .020- 2920 fps .010-2930 fps .005"- 2940 fps I've seen this over and over again. With my 338 edge. I can cram a 300gr smk down to an oal of 3.690" (ogive about to go below case mouth) (90grs H1000) shoots great sub .5 moa at 2800 fps then I can hang it out to .010 off the lands at 3.850" oal (90grs H1000) and shoot sub .5 moa at 2885 fps. So why do people always get so set on worrying about seating depth and pressure? What have you guys seen ? Thanks

What bullet you wanting to run?

Yes. PM me with any questions you have.

Is the barrel/action Durakoted or just the stock or both?

PM sent

Very nice. I'm very interested. What kind of bottom metal is it inleted for? Where are you located?

Details on the A5 ? LA ?LOP? Inlet? Pics?

Its a Shrewd muzzle brake. I do not know who installed it.

Possible interest in full or partial trades. Rem 700 LA footprint stocks Manners or McMillan, AG composites ect. Rem 700 7mm Rem mag or 300 win Leupold VX5s Swaro 10x42 SLCs Zeiss 15x bino 300 PRC brass and or dies. Atlas bipod Hodgdon H1000

I've had good luck with .223 and a 60gr vmax around 2800fps. 1 little hole in and never had an exit. Inside is jello. I've have very different results with the 50 and 55 gr vmaxs tho so I stick with the 60gr.

Whenever I break or lose a phone (it happens about once a year for me haha) . I buy used a phone off of Swappa or Gazelle and always had good luck and save a pile of money. Never buying a new phone ever again.

If your velvet made it in the freezer in a reasonable time it will be fine. It's up to the taxidermist on how they want to treat it. Some freeze dry it some inject ect. I think freeze dried looks the best. The less the velvet gets touched and messed with the better it looks.

+1 for the 215gr Bergers and H1000

I've killed and helped kill a few deer in the wallow fire burn and everyone of them was hard to find even with the picture, rangefinding method. The grass is tall and all the fallen burnt trees look the same. The picture taking method and rangefinding help. As does leaving a buddy from where you shot from and have him vector you in.

I've hunted 6A a few times PM me if you would like and I can get you a few starting points.

How bout them Pics?
