If you want good advice and customer service then I wouldn't recommend "H&F". I buy some stuff at Guncity, both shops. I seem to get more realistic service/banter etc from the one on the main road...

maybe....but the 160 partition will function in std 1;10 twist...taking a great bullet and tweaking it slightly to make it more slippery seems better idea to me.

Yup I'm not in a hurry, I've had big long range scope before and that's certainly not what I'm after. The 2.5-10×44 Monarch thats currently on it is a bloody good match. Ideally if I could lay my...

Norma used to be the primo brass back before Lapua and the others came on the scene. Maybe back then the others were just so bad. Nowadays I'm not so sure. My own experience with for example 6.5/284...

Both are good. Some have suggested that Norma is a softer brass and Lapua handles pressure better and is also more consistent between cases. My experience 22-250 AI. I would go with Lapua if I had...
