Re: Accuracy....Bergers vs Hornady

I've had excellent results with hornady eld-m bullets in the 6.5 creedmoor. I'm thinking about trying berger with a bullet pointing die but man are they expensive. Goals? Comp shooting? If so, what type? Hunting? Comp shooting. I have a Tikka CTR 24" set up in a Bravo KRG chassis. I'm thinking PRS or something similar. My rifle is right at 12 lbs and I'm not sure what weight restrictions are We also have a lot of local things we do with a group of us so always on the search for improvements. On the list at the moment is I'll be trying a few different firing pin springs, possibly the berger bullets and it would be nice to find a few forum members who are doing some competition shooting in Montana, Idaho, or Washington that are interested in meeting a Montana boy who new to competing Typical 5-shot group at 100 yards with the 140 M's is half MOA or better? As a local group we shoot at 1000 yards a lot and with some lots of the hornadys it's hard to get the vertical really tight due to inconsistent bullet lengths. I'm thinking possibly bergers and a bullet pointing die to true up BCs. We are a pretty competitive group of shooters and I'm always interested in expanding my knowledge. Basically I'm bored and I also want to win at our local fun matches. I basically posted the question to see what others have found at longer ranges with berger vs hornady. I do have around 1400 of the hornadys so will no doubt still play with them a fair amount, probably even use them In some competitions where I'm not trying to reach out to 1000. Basically I'm being extremely anal and counting inches to satisfy my OCD and competitive spirit as well Your OCD must not be that bad if you are happy with an ES of 32. What brass you using? Listen to my amigo stick when he says you are doing yourself no favors when it comes to vertical string with that high of an ES.

the previous mentioned Sociopath moniker was accurate i'm afraid... looks to be a Dr Jeykll/Mr Hyde type to me... must be how he was able to pass the sniff test in training camp, and after his infractions on the street... the video doesn't lie!... They saw his behavior on video and opined: I"n response to a social media post of an edited video of a local law enforcement encounter, the South Whitley Town Council has reviewed the surrounding circumstances, including unabridged video footage from four cameras. “The council recognizes that officer Brian Schimmel’s interaction with the accused on January 24, 2024, was flawed but not worthy of dismissal. Concerns with the encounter include allowing the accused to have an unmonitored conversation with her father at the scene, which, like other elements of the incident, was not included in the footage released online. The force involved appears consistent with police academy training. “Since the incident occurred more than two months ago, the marshal has already addressed areas of concern with the officer. The Town Council concurs with both the marshal’s corrective efforts and his decision to retain the officer." Uh-Oh. That won't soothe your pussy, will it? Looks like your kind of behavior. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...having-a-diabetic-emergency#Post19360840I learned something here. Cops are supposed to be able to assess medical conditions as well as a doctor, and diabetics can behave however they want to without fear of repercussions.

Re: Suppressor E-Forms Approval

I'm not sure there's a cadence in how they're processing. I know plenty of folks that have been waiting 6+ months, some 3 months and the local GS told me last week that everything he sent in on that Monday was approved same-week.  One thing is for sure, once word has gotten out that the wait on approval times shrinking significantly, inventory at your LGS is going to be increasingly limited. I have a friend who said his application to approval time was less than 10 days. They do seem to be speeding up lately, but I have a hard time believing that.

I basically posted the question to see what others have found at longer ranges with berger vs hornady I use Hornady for a lot of things, but if I want the tightest consistent groups possible at distance on paper (1K BR and F-Open) or steel, I will use Berger or a boutique bullet. Example: F-Open 180 Hybrid and F-TR started with the 200 grain Hybrid, then moved to the 200.20X My lightweight 1K bench pistol (Batman) 105 Hybrids My heavyweight pistol used to run 180 grain JLK's. Different chambering now and I'm running the 190 LR Hybrid

Re: Another transfer of wealth away from blue collar workers

Heard on the radio that Procter and Gambles continues to raise prices even though cost of products are declining...thus reporting record profits and dividends. Congratulation to middle and upper class share holders. Then their competitors should rejoice. By selling comparable products for less, they will make lots of money. Do you have any idea how markets work? You’ll only remain a victim if you choose to do so. Good post!

I found a box of 200 gr round nose partitions in a box of reloading stuff I was given. Can I use those out of my JC Higgins 50 for this? The Higgins has a compass in the stock for added guidance That sets the Fudd bar pretty high. Hard act to follow. DF

It can be assumed he wasn't behaving in an adversarial manner against other LE during hiring or training. Video of him losing his [bleep] and lying on private citizens didn't turn them off so it seems likely that behavior against private citizens wouldn't have been a concern during hiring/training periods either.
