whisper

Dime, you've sure asked for a boat load of info! Good for you!

My whisper is on a contender, with a 15" Bullberry barrel. Shoots great, but sub-sonic is of no interest to me, so I shoot 125's @...

tight-necked chamber

Gelan, be careful with brass only .001 smaller than your chamber. Most gunsmiths recommend twice that, so be aware you could have some pressure issues.

I make my brass from .223 brass also, but my...

My dies are Redding, but the shoulder isn't real sharp until fire-formed with the first shot. I make my brass from Rem. .223 brass. You're mighty brave loading that many rounds before you know for...

You'll only be using 10-20gr of powder, so you'll have to TRY to shoot the barrel out, so I wouldn't let that worry affect your decision. I would bet a lot of money that whatever barrel you pick will...

Hey kurtz,

I'm interested to see the responses to your last post. Should be some interesting differences of opinions. I have personal experience with Howa actions, and my rifle (a Weatherby...

Godogma,

Information rec'd by both above is sound. I've gotten to know 320 a little bit, and I would believe him if he told me the sky was pink (almost).

If you go with the contender,...

Just bein' a wise guy! I know 100gr bal tips @ 3100fps still blow up on deer @ LESS than 100yds. I would think 120's (any of the controlled...

chronographs

Hey Patwa,

Good for you! Don't worry about the rods. The only time I use mine is when there aren't enough clouds to keep the direct sun from skewing the reads. I need them to hold the...

Great info 320. I'm not a fan of the case head measurement method. I've found increases at what I still consider, by all other methods (velocity included), to be below max. I also think brass make-up...

.25/284

Based on my research I think it may exceed the '06 case ever so slightly with the lighter bullets, but I've never talked to anyone who's shot one to be sure. My 'smith doesn't have the reamer but I'm...

Hey Patwa,
Sorry about getting my responses out of order. Hope it's not too confusing to anyone. Thanks for the info. I'll respond to some of it after I've consulted my dictionary! Just...

Thanks for the info. Looks like your rig would also be effective if the deer you were hunting were shooting back at you! I would love to shoot a rig like your's with sub-sonic ammo sometime, but in...

25/08?

Hey guys,
How about a .25/284? I've been kicking around that idea for awhile. Don't worry about feeding problems. My .284 Win is in a Rem 700 switch barrel rig, with the other barrels in...

.25/06 reply

Hey guys,
Just stumbled across your postings from the past. Don't know if you'll see this, but I'll try anyway. .25/06 is AWESOME! I would bet anyone who doesn't like it hasn't owned one! You...

Patwa,
One other thing before I leave here concerning pressures in general since you mentioned you have a difficult time judging pressures in your AR. I'm not big on advice, but one thing I...

Hey Patwa,
Thanks for the quick reply! I thought you were shooting a 700, hence my reference to bolt guns. Must have combined info from other reads. I would really like to know what you find...

Hey Cherokee,
Tell me about your deer with the 150gr BT's. So far no responses to my request for personal experiences with the 125's on big whitetails. Our deer here in IL are rarely under...

Hey Patwa,
Are you sure all other conditions were the same? Were loaded rounds left on the dash of your truck, possibly, before you shot them? I am no expert on H-110, but it sounds strange to...
