Hi NEW TO THIS SITE

#1 Post by ANDY T »

Hi all
I am new to this shooting site

I shoot mainly tactical rifles and have 2 Unique Alpine with 6mmbr 6.5x284 and x2 308 barrels i also do .22 benchrest shooting.
The 6.5x284 is a new caliber to me so i would appreciate and feed back on loads and what wight rounds to use it has a 1/8 twist on it and will be shooting from 800-1200yrd with it.
I am also a committee member of our local shooting club see the link below

Regards
Andy

Welcome to the forum, we have a 6.5x284 coming in the next 2-3 weeks. I was going to start with 139 Scenars and either Viht N560 or H4831SC as we have both in the house. The 42 grain SMK's also have a good reputation however I prefer to feed the new rifle a European diet to start off with

Hi Andy, welcome to FBUK.

For heavens sake, don't call them heads, you'll upset them all and cause a huge stooshie and this welcome thread will end up running to about 300 posts on the subject :lol: We are really good at getting off topic, you'll soon see.

hi Andy,

Welcome to the forum...its lively, informal and friendly...except when one or two get stuck into the cookin' on a Friday night. Then it gets silly.

Quite a few know what they are doing here.

Hello Andy

I wondered if you'd find your way to here :D
