I use 30.0 of 2208 with a 105 Lapua Scenar (jammed hard into lands) and a CCI BR4 for fireforming. Match load is 33.3 Gr 2208, CCI BR4 Primer with 105 Lapua Scenars loaded 10 thou off the lands.

Remember, back off and work up. These loads are specific to my rig.

Have fun

I believe that Raeburn Trindall of the Canberra Rifle Club is using a 7mm08 in F Open. He wrote an article some months back in the ATR Mag. Sorry, I don't have a contact number for him.

Same product that I purchased from ALDI now being promoted by Sinclairs in their latest newsletter for the bargain price of $49.95 US Dollars..... go figure

Thank you to all who have provided info and assistance. Reamer has arrived and the dies are on the way. I am looking forward to the new toy.

Your loss guys. My mates purchased a pair each. calibrated them using high quality Germans feeler gauges...spot on. If you want to pay $95 for the exact same product then OK. Mine are so good, I have purchased a second pair.

ALDI has a beaut stainless steel electronic vernier on special tomorrow 25 May at 9.00AM. I purchased these last year. Very good quality. Saw same product in a Canberra gun shop for circa $90.

Be early, last year they sold out in 10 minutes.

I am about to order dies for my 6mm Dasher project. Has anybody had any problems with brining in Dies since Australia Post's new regulations. Any commenr / experience / feedback appreciated

Congrats to Geoff Miners of Southern Tablelands (Goulburn NSW) for his win in F Open under very difficult conditions. A weather front moved in during the shoot and a one point, the "gallery" rewarding a "10" with a round of applause. There were 6 F open shooters. Geoff Miners first (6.5 x 55), Richa...

Have a new 6mm barrel on the way. Looking at the 6mm Dasher. Wilson now make the dies. Any feedback welcome, particulaly info on Reamer Specs/source and experience with Case Forming.

The Burris rings may be a solution, but depending on your action type, you may not be able to get the scope mounted far enough forward to give the correct eye relief when shooting prone using Weaver type "off the shelf" mounts. Most purpose built rails will allow the scope to be mounted well forward...

I seem to remember a "good old 6.5 x 55" being 2nd overall after a 500m shootoff with a 6mmBR. Still life in the "old swede" yet.

"SUPERCHEAP" Auto shops sell the stuff - not expensive I think from memory about $15 for a "gallon" size bottle.

Actually, Wayne Pattinson was relating this story about some guys unteathered "pig dog", that upon hearing the first shot go off at a match, bounded from behind, over a startled shooter on the mound, and on wards 30 metres down range....props, and ....thinks .....

"where's the Pig!!!!"
