Mixing or blending powders is just asking for trouble in my opinion. Like Lance said there are plenty of powders available to fine tune anything you want. If you are wanting to duplicate factory loads I have seen multiple reloading articles that talk about doing just that with production powders available to the hand loader. I am not sure why anyone would want to duplicate a factory load though, just go buy it.

42.0gr of H4350. Only getting 2700fps out it but its only a 20" barrel on that one.

Jim, I just loaded some 140s in my .270 and they shoot amazingly well. I am very impressed with them so far. I have also loaded some 130s in some Creedmoors with excellent results. Trent went to Wyoming last month and one of the guys he went with was running the 130s in his Creedmoor and took a nice goat at over 700 yards. Full penetration and nice exit hole. I have also had great results with the 160TMK out of 7 Rem mags over 68.5gr H-1000. The 30cal 175 TMKs have also proven to shoot well out of a .308 I built for a client. That rifle and bullet have gone on to kill Bull Elk, multiple Mule Deer, and Ibex without issue. They may say not recommended for hunting on the box but they sure do work good.

Located in Safford, and selling for a friend of mine that isn't online. His name is Brian and you can call or text him at 928-965-7755 for any questions you may have. I am told the rifle is a few years old but like new and shot only a few times. He is asking $400 and comes with scope and soft case. Thanks for looking.

68-69 of H-1000 with the 168 Bergers or 70-71gr of Retumbo with the 180s has always given me excellent results. Doesn't matter what rifle it is.

Thats pretty much my pet load for every 6.5WSM I have built. They like it right there. Turning the necks is key as you found out. Great cartridge and it will do wonders on deer a long ways out there.

Tikka website should be able to answer those questions I would imagine. Can't go wrong with a Tikka though, everyone I have ever shot has done so really well. By far the most accurate out of the box rifle available with butter smooth actions.

Really the only advantage is that it makes life easier being able to use the same equipment everyone else does and not have to be stuck buying left handed rifles that are harder to come by and generally cost more as well.

He's young. You can have him trained to shoot right handed pretty easy. Cover his eye and go shoot a lot. Soon it will just be muscle memory to shoulder and shoot right handed. Practice makes perfect and there will be no need to buy special rifles or equipment. Go get him an air soft rifle that you can mount a cheap throw away scope on and have him practice in the house. I'm sure a six year old would have a blast running around the house pretending to be some sort of Pirate sniper or something with a patch on his eye. Make it fun for him and it will work out.

I've got a Predator T-rex target stock in Red Laminate or I have factory birch stock with no barrel band that's been opened up for a heavy barrel. PM me if you're interested.

I have a used but in nice condition Boyds laminate stock for a Rem 700 long action ADL (blind magazine) in Royal Jarcanda laminate. I believe it is a Platinum model basic sporter stock. No bedding, and has a couple little scuff marks but nothing major. Asking $100 shipped to the lower 48.

Every Creedmoor I have ever loaded for has had a node right around the 41.5-42.0gr mark with the 140s and H4350. I generally seat bullets. .025" off the lands and find very good accuracy with very low SDs. Velocities range from 2750-2800+ depending on barrel length and components used.

Bump.

Just shoot me a PM and we can exchange contact info.

Definitely a commercial Mauser of some sort and definitely worth keeping. If it were me I would decide what caliber I wanted and build it. That action with a match grade barrel can shoot just as well if not better than anything else made today. I built a .280 Ackley on an old 98k Mauser with a Benchmark #3 barrel that shoots fantastic.

There is very little of this I disagree with but I have highlighted my favorite parts.
