    10-Ring liked post by Spitfire On thread : FL sizing without expander ball
    Agreed that expander buttons can cause run out as they are pulled through the neck, but I can’t agree that expander mandrels necessarily do the same. I expand my necks with a mandrel then size with a...

    Delphus liked post by Spitfire On thread : Scope or binos?
    Binos for me. A really good pair will find you more game, especially in low light. Plenty of good enough scopes out there until you can upgrade later. As Gibbo says, it a bit of a toss up. Good...

    I’m developing a load with RE26 and 180 ELD-M in mine. Still work to do, but I’m at 2780 fps so far and still on mild loads. I would use 2225 if not RE26 or 2217 for 162s. RE22 is very temp...

    This will certainly be in the US where they are obsessed with overbore cartridges and want the fastest twist barrels they can get to maximise BCs and win the Internet passing contest. A-Max and ELD-M...

    162 ELD-M is basically the 162 A-Max with a new gucci tip. I don’t really believe the Hornady hype that the A-Max tips were melting at high velocity, but the ELD-M is a substitute for them with a...

    Well, I can, but I won’t as we all make our own choices (and I like Sako rifles too). I went down the custom route and it cost me about the same.

    I bought a new 7-08 takeoff barrel for my T3 and had it reamed to .284 Win. That rifle is my day-to-day shooter and drops everything with 162 ELD-X. In a Tikka action with long bolt stop and mag...
