    A never ending argument I reckon. I reckon if you can take out the residue from the powder then that has stopped the corrosion unless you have a humidity problem. I spray remoil on to my bore snake...

    rewa liked post by Puffin On thread : 6.5 Creedmoor load development
    I found Lapua brass in 6.5x47 seemed to stretch more on first firing with a moderate load than expected, giving the impression of high pressure on extraction. This may have been behind your AR2209...

    rewa liked post by 10-Ring On thread : 6.5 Creedmoor load development
    The 6.5 Creedmoor has a reputation for being an easy cartridge to develop an accuracy load for. I've found this to be true in my case, however that's with the caveat of only trying five powders and...

    If by stamped brass you are referring to extractor marks it really depends on severity and how you go about prepping that brass for the new chamber. Pressure high enough to give you that kind of...

    I have fairly recently entered the world of 6.5 Creedmoor after 20+ years of favouring .308win. I strayed to this fad/trendy cal with scepticism and apprehension but a lot of curiosity and sat down...

    Not nearly as many as others, only a handful, I came to the .222 late. I have had two .222's over the years, a Winchester 70 and a Sako Vixen. The damage the bullet does is way out of proportion. I...
