I guess that I do to much reading. Ran across this info on another website. What do you think?
.223 Rem — Not A Competitive Option
I would stay away from the .223 Remington. On paper the 90gr VLD will shoot inside most .308 Win loads even at a 1000 yards. But in reality, on average, the .223 Rem, regardless of what powder/bullet combo is u…[Read more] -

Steve, I shoot Varget in everything that I own. I have had good luck doing load development at 70* F and adjusting .1 grain for each 10* F change, in either direction. I will look at the hourly weather forecast and try to make an educated guess at the temperature. Does not always work as planned. I have also found that barrels have different…[Read more]

Ben, the wife will love the 6BR after shooting that rifle of yours. I am pretty sure that I started out 4 or 5 years ago with the same rifle. I never got use to the trigger and soon replaced it with a rifle basic trigger. I own 2 dashers but would highly recommend that you leave it a BR unless you plan to make a living shooting 1000 yards.

Reese Bottom witnessed a rain shower on Friday afternoon, but we should be good to go by Saturday morning. The mud will be a little sticky, so you might wear your rubber boots. Don’t forget the .22 lr match following the regular match. WWE

I am satisfied that the new computer program worked as planned last month, so we will plan to crown the division winners using the overall method. How many places we pay will depend on the number of shooters in the division. Anyone with questions, please ask. Thanks, WWE

Sorry to be so late with this, but I am waiting on results from a medical exam that I recently had. Still waiting, so we will go ahead and plan the shoot. At the last match, the shooters agreed that they wanted to shoot 5 @ 200, 5 @ 300, 5 @ 400, and 5 @ 500 plus fouler shots at each distance. That will be 20 record rounds fired at 600 yard IBS…[Read more]
