IMO it’s safe to say you hit the jackpot with that WRA, congrats! -
For high power and vintage match shooting my favorites are the AMU guide (available from CMP bookstore or provided if you attend SAFS), the Jim Owens...Leave a comment:

That’s almost certainly a Winchester stock just judging by the V-cut. Personally I wouldn’t remove the ferrule as it probably has a peened screw....Leave a comment:

Holy smokes, those look outstanding. What wood came on the HRA?Leave a comment:

Are you looking to shoot it or stockpile? For comparison, new production M80 Winchester (Lake City) and IMI can be found for around $1/round. Midway has...Leave a comment:

Great post; I stayed in the barracks last year and will be staying there again this year. Personally I like to bring a 5-cup coffee maker to get my fix....Leave a comment:

It is more than likely a slower lot of IMR4895, if it were me I’d just dump it into primed brass, seat the bullet, and enjoy....Leave a comment:

Does anybody remember what the advertised velocity of the 167-grain load was?Leave a comment:

I’m guessing you might lose too much of the target with a +1.00. The general guidelines are a +0.75 for an AR15 and a +0.50 for an M1. However, if you...Leave a comment:

Yep, check out the Hornady manual. Also, keep an eye out for Accurate 2495, which is also included in the Hornady loads. Personally, I use Accurate 4...Leave a comment:

The painted op rods and gas cylinders look better with use, but otherwise I agree. IMO as far as finish goes, it’s hard to beat the 60’s rebuilds....Leave a comment:
