Big Stick Campfire Kahuna Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 58,807 Likes: 64 Paradise,Alaska	Bought Sig brass initially as a R&D lark,simply to see WTF. Come to find out,it is amazingly consistent in headspace(under .002" deviation) for a bag of 50pcs,weight and length. My WAypoint and Gen1 Havak LOVE it,in Seex Kreed. Hint. I go through lotsa components,so Xmas happens a coupla times a month,much to the chagrin of Crying Karen Windowlickers(Texans) the World over. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!...............

It has 7-08 case capacity(cartridge to it's left) and essentially stretches COAL,due the shorter case length. The 7-08 Aye-Eye to it's right,has more cubes...but I'm cool with letting the .796 BC do it's thang in OEM confines. It surely ain't gonna suck,in binderless AICS DBM's either. Hint. Just got done flogging on the 2020 Seex Kreed and Montucky Six Twat-Six this morning,both with 112gr .620 BC's,but left camera in loading room. It'll give window Lickers a "chance". hint.

Moly 112's at 3.315" Montucky COAL,with '250's and an elder batch of '22(Lot #95103X030310). Hint. This batch of Lapooey wears .018" necks,which is a new one on me. I reduced sides .004",for a total of .008" and .271" loaded. Hint. I shoot said 112's in 270,243 Grendel,6BR,Kreedmire,243Win,243Win Aye-Eye,6-284 and Twat-Six. They shine brightly,across the spectrum and kill schit deader than fhuqk. Hint............... Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.
