    Greetings All, I am using AR2206H with the 145 grain projectiles in a 7mm-08 for F-class and it shoots great. AR2206, AR2207, AR2208 and AR2209 were developed in Australia by Mulwex in the early...

    Greetings, Personally I would not put Loctite anywhere near a rifles chamber, just asking for trouble in my opinion. The other problem with the close on chamber method is that with full length sized...

    Greetings. I chronographed 41 grains of AR2206H with the 145 grain Speer at 2,800 fps in Lapua cases and a 26 inch barrel. Also 41.5 grains of AR2208 with the 150 grain Remington at 2,570 fps in R-P...

    Nakihunter liked post by grandpamac On thread : Fire forming 270 to 280ai
    The .280 and AI cases have longer headspace than the .270 so the correct way is to neck the cases up to .30-06 and then set the shoulder back to a hard close in the .280 AI die. You have missed that...

    Greetings all, The hybrid vehicles are likely close to the end of their run. I had spotted that they don't save much in fuel. Plug in hybrid vehicles are a little better but you still have to...
