Quality work.

RC, same rifle, same barrel?
Not sure if I understand the question, but yeah, that’s the same rifle and barrel chambered with Bob’s reamer. I just put the barreled action in a McMillan A3–5, and put a Leupold Mark 5 on it.

That’s a slick set up and man does it shoot RC. I remember back when Bob was talking about you using his reamer for that rifle.
I assume it was the Henricksen reamer?

I’m not sure of the maker, but I had Manson duplicate it for me.
Bob sent diagrams of it. I’ll see if I still have them

Yup. That’s the one I was thinking of.
That’s a gem of a reamer.

Just for comparison to a 7 Rem Mag Forming the Mashburn from 300 Win.

Kind of a good story about Bob. He extolled the virtues of the Mashburn and eventually wore me down. Didn’t take much. So I paid a 100 bucks and a borrowed a reamer from Bobs buddy Matt. I acquired a bunch of 300 Win brass and using Bobs (actually Dobers) recipe of 65 grains of 4350 and a 139/140 grain bullet I formed up 50 cases. I put a 6x42 on top. Formed up 50 cases. Well Bob said H1000 was good so I didn’t argue. I used 160 Partitions and Accubonds. I showed Bob everything I shot that day. He said “Scotty, I use 75.5, give it a try” I quit right there for that year and Hunted elk with that load that fall.

Mysterious like, talking about this thread, Bob Hagel’s saint made an email appear in my inbox. I hope I’m not going to get a verbal whooping but I’m putting up the pictures. The subject of the email was “Deceased via the Mashburn” 120 TTSX 168 Nosler Accubond LR 150 Ballistic Tip 150 TTSX Shrike stock, EDGE fill And a Fence Post pic
