    I've found that like Tech, accuracy has improved slightly. That's with Lapua and Peterson brass which is all I use now. Annealing every reload, neck tension is more consistent. It shows on my arbor...

    I recently talked an older hunter (73), into buying a 6.5 creedmore (howa). He had the rings lapped,and a $350 scope fitted. He's getting one ragged-hole, 5-shot groups @ 100m with 140gr ammo (...
