Love your straight forward way of describing things, it feels like I'm there with you. Youve got my subscription!
🇦🇺😎👍Both my .223s love the 69 grainers…Haven’t seen those projectiles at Cleavers…nice looking big long slug…How much do those bad boys cost ?…. I just checked out the website while you were talking , good stuff… thanks for the info brother🇦🇺🏁
🇦🇺😎👍Those copper projectiles rock 🏁, didn’t know they clog up the barrel though. .. Bloody go shooting again🏁…Great interesting info mate🏁
🇦🇺😎👍I had an Australian Mountaineer ( Howa ) in 7 mm Remington Magnum back in 1998 and didn’t that barmaid kick. I used ADI 2213 back then.. Nice rifle but I probably wouldn’t go back to such a large caliber. The biggest I shoot now is .308 & 6.5x55…That’s pretty good groups mate… I prefer 20 power scopes for trying to sort out groups. For me it much easier to see the target at 100 yards… member the ole (Taipan projectiles ? Malcom Bone I think )… Great content 🏁
@@bigtrev761 I’m shooting a couple of 308’s that do the business just nicely, as well as a 30-06 that is also quite well-trained. A 300 Win Mag is too much for most things in SEQ, but I just wanted a “big” gun. Might be useful if I head way North or to try and bowl something over in the next postcode.
🇦🇺😎👍Bloody he’ll brother, you need a hair cut 🤣👍
🇦🇺😎👍
Stop clapping
Case prep is a pain in the ass ! One of these will be my next purchase great machine sit down have a beer and get the boring chore done
Ok boomer
..subscribed..
Thanks for posting such a easy to follow vid on doing this.made my life easy thanks once again
@@bradgaffneyfishing6299 no problems Mate. Appreciate the feedback and support. Glad you got something out of it. Cheers.
Nice looking projectile... I had a look on their site and most of their projectiles are sold out .. They still have some 69g but I wanted something a bit lighter .
@@shanegibb997 these will stabilise in a 1:8 twist, but the 22-250, which is normally 1:14 will not stabilise them. Those 55 grain Roo Bombs look a good thing too, but they’re out of stock. I’m looking forward to the 30 cal projectiles. They’re a work in progress, but they are definitely on the horizon.
@@2clicksup910 l was hoping they had something in the 65/70g for the 243 .. Yes I would have bought some of those 55g roo bombs if they were in stock ..
@@shanegibb997 I believe there are 80’s for the 243, but I’m not sure of current stock levels. I’m going to give the 106’s a crack in the 243; see how they go.
@@2clicksup910 that will be interesting , can't wait to see how they go..
Hey mate what’s the qty in the box? Also what seating depth did you end up going with on the howa?
As far as I’m aware, all the REXEM products are sold in 100-piece packs, but get confirmation of that via the website. I went with a COAL (overall length) of 59mm, but that just touched both ends of the internal box magazine in the HOWA, which created minor feeding issues. Knocked them down to 57.60mm, and that seems to work nicely. As I’m loading ammo for hunting only, I don’t really worry about jump to the kans, etc.; I like to make it fir in the magazine, feed, fir in the rifle, go bang then come out all without issues.
@@2clicksup910 Cheers for that, for some reason they don’t have qty on the website, even when you add to cart. Seems like great projectiles, price is not bad at all. I have a Howa mini myself, keen to try heavier pills through them, will give these a go. Keep up the content!
Guess I lucked out my old Winchester loves the ppu they are the lowest priced hornet ammo I’ve can find
@@stiltnerjamie it did shoot, but it did not set the world on fire. But, as you say, it’s the cheapest, and you can get it, which is a good thing. The brass reloads well, and it is the cheapest brass around (when you can get it). Maybe I could have persevered a bit; who knows.
Where would a person find a clip for one of them ?
@@paullavallee1631 I would chase up an importer/distributor in your area. Then maybe chase a retailer. Maybe you can find an online supplier. Either way, where I am (Australia), these things, like most parts in general, can be a little bit hard to come by.
@@2clicksup910 Its the same in Canada, even reached out to Zastava themselves, no luck, asking for a friend who has no computer, I use a Browning Micro Medallion in 22 hornet, great caliber
I'm thousands of miles away, brother (East Tennessee to be exact) but I appreciate your work. We like the ammo you chose, and it likes the longer, heavier barrels for accuracy and reduced recoil. 26 years in the Army has spoiled me using gas operated, 22 cal. pills. I nearly built the same rig, but I came across a bucket list gun that I couldn't pass up. A pristine 59/66 Yugo SKS. It's all matching serial numbers and in very nice condition. It just needed someone to clean out the cosmoline from the recesses. Thanks for making me jealous with your sweet little gun! 🤩
@@duranbailiff5337 Cheers Mate. Thanks for that. We all come across that “one” you just can’t let pass. Mine was a pristine Weatherby Mark V in 22-250 that had fired about 70 rounds. I use the thing, and it is ridiculous accurate. I actually shot the thing today. Stacking holes on top of holes. Hope you enjoy the videos.
I came for the gun, I stayed for the LAD with the cool accent, peace and blessings from TEXAS!
@@jerrymandarren thanks Mate. Really appreciate the support…
Well done , great job 👍

I'm new to hunting rifles. Got a Tikka T3x with no mount and I've been having a hard time learning how to navigate mounting solutions. It seems like picatinny rails are the way to go, but I wouldn't even know where to buy them. Most pic rails I find are for mlok/key mod. My Tikka is 308 short action. Where could I find pic rails for my rifle? And how do I know if they're canted or not? Thanks in advance
Pic Rails that mount onto the receiver are readily available, and the Tikka T3X is a fairly common firearm, so you won’t have any trouble getting one. As far as cant goes, it will be displayed on the packaging, and, being a hunting rifle, I would imagine you would require either a 0-MOA or a 20-MOA rail. I mainly stick to the 0-MOA rails, as I’m generally not trying to hit things in the next suburb. Most gun shops will have them (or can get them), and you can also get them through most of the online retailers. Just stick to the known brands and you’ll be fine. If you’ve got any doubt, just take your firearm into the shop so they can match the appropriate rail to your gun. Hope this helps. Cheers.
@@2clicksup910 Thank you man. I really appreciate it
Great job thanks for sharing from 🇬🇧
Cheers Mate.
Cheers mate, couldn't have done it with out ya!
Glad it helped
Hey buddy tighten the action screw at the recoil lug first and don’t rest your scopes eye piece in the rest and slam the mag in please
That went together beautifully
Thank you for taking the time to review this scope. You're the first I found that said it had a manual focus, which I definitely need with my old peepers.
Being a 270 shooter like your video, 270's bounce around a bit when fired, I found shooting off a medium firm front bag helped groups, a hard rest would result in vertical flyers. Always something to learn. Interested to see your load for Speer 100grn HP, mine is 2208/48grn, 3300fps. This load virtually cuts foxes in half. I do my load development with chronograph, shows any variations in fps that could cause a flyer. My BRNO has been bedded, trigger job by Tony Small, Sightron S2 4-16x42. Out what did a the Swan barrel cost fitted?
This one may get a new stock a bit down the track, but we’ll see how it goes. It should settle down a bit more with a bit more use.
I did not see part 2 on Speer 100grn, I achieved good accuracy in a sporter barrel 20-30mm groups.
Exactly the same load as mine, Hornady TSS 130grn are the most accurate projectile I have used in my BRNO 270 hunting rifle.
Very nice can you get smaller magazine with this set up thanks
I think you can get a 5-shot, but I’m not entirely sure. I haven’t investigated that as yet.
Do you have a list of brass that works best, I have a mix of 6 or so head stamp 223 (mostly ADI and Sako ) I’ve picked up at the local range. I understand some can have a too thick of neck size once a projectile is fitted.
I’ve done PPU, ADI, Frontier, Winchester, Remington, Hornady, Norinco and a couple of others that I don’t even know the make of, and I’ve not had an issue with any of them. So far, I’ve done them all the same way, and they all load up well, they all feed, they all go BANG, and they all extract. 300 Blackout brass can be a bit hard to ring, and somewhat pricey if and when you can get it. Doing this with 223 brass makes it a cost-effective exercise, and it’s not the end of the world if you lose a couple of pieces of brass in the bush. And I’ve experienced no issues with performance.
🇦🇺😎👍The rifle looks great in that combo🏁
🇦🇺😎👍I was wondering about those stocks . I’ve got a Howa 243 / 223 varmint rifles ( both have fired under 300 rds since new ) . Both rifles have Hogue rubber over flexible fore ends. Mate what is the difference in weight between the old Hogue and the new MDT stock ?… They say these are sub moa rifles but I don’t seem to have this with mine . One has a 16 power variable scope and the other has a 20 power variable so the sight picture is magnified enough. While I don’t use super premium ammo or reloads yet I do use common brands and only seem to achieve 1” / 1 - 1/2 groups @100 yards.. . I thought perhaps the stock was letting the rifles down. Keep in mind I have achieved 1/2 groups with other rifles ( so I’m not just a crook shot 🤣) so being varmint rifles perhaps I just expect too much ? …While I’m not overly worried, they are still good enough for shooting out the window of a truck in the paddock.
Those HOGUE stocks are fine. They’re pillar bedded, so just make sure everything is tightened down to spec, including scope rings and bases. Consistent reloads with what powder/charge/projectile the rifle likes will make a difference. If it’s hunting accuracy you’re after, it will all come together. As far as weight goes, the new stick has added a little bit (it us noticeable), but not enough to be an issue, as these sort of things aren’t really meant as a “walk-around” rifle.
@@2clicksup910 🇦🇺😎👍Thank you Sir
I bought a Howa 1500 300winmag carbon fibre stalker can’t wait to use it
Id maybe redo the 53.5gn of the 2209 & the SST. Just to see if it was you that made a mistake on the flyer. On your previous 22" barrel the SSTs worked a treat better then the currant barrel IMHO, maybe because it was well run in. If you did favour the 130gn SST id go back to those. The HPs are more for maybe roos & goats, the speer SPBT might be abit hard, where the SST is somewhere inbetween. Before i rebarrelled my CMC 270 it had just a std 22" barrel, it shot best with most projectiles 53.5 or 54gns 2209.
That does seem to be something like a “sweet spot” for that weight projectile, so I think that’s where it’s going to end up. It was the first day out with the new barrel, with a lot of shots fired and the barrel getting quite “warm” at times. I’m quite confident that barrel will settle down more as time goes on, and the large number of rounds and high-ish barrel temperatures are both situations that would rarely occur in the field, so I think we’re OK at this stage.
All over the place like a mad womans shit. Haha. Loved it!
Is this the factory stock? I love the roll over cheek piece.
It is the factory stock, and it’s a really nice, well finished piece of timber. It’s a real shame that these rifles have become so scarce here, and the caliber itself seems to be on the wane as well.
Really like the format of your videos, straight up to the point. Don’t suppose you chrono your load development? I’d be interested to see how groups correlate to velocities
Firstly, thanks for the positive comments. I have never chronographed anything; I avoid chronographs, as they can (and often do) fill your head with too much information. I vividly remember remember back in my old Trapshooting days and speeds wet staring get printed on boxes; shooters were driven mad in the quest for the perfect speed. They became obsessed and believed 25 feet per second was the difference between success and failure. That speed difference was equivalent to a clay target travelling about 10-12 inches, and I always said that if that was your difference between a hit and a miss, maybe you’ll should consider another endeavour.
why didnt you just go a stainless barrel just wondering
At the time I did it, stainless was in something of short supply. As it turns out, I’m more than happy with the end result…
🇦🇺😎👍I brought about 5000 Remington pistol primers about 6 years ago and I had about a 10% failure rate…great video🏁big fella🏁
🇦🇺😎👍All the way from Roadvale
🇦🇺😎👍Hey mate…I’ve got 3 varmint barrels on my Howas. Personally I prefer the sporters now. Pretty hard to lump around…… Love PPU ❤🏁…A mate of mine loaded his 270 Howa excessively years ago and his primers popped out but wasn’t it accurate 🤣.. I’ve got a Tikka T3x 6.5x55 with a varmint barrel and it’s pretty kind to the shoulder …I’ve heard Swan does a good job. Thanks for another interesting video🏁
Some of your viewers are unfamiliar with ADI powders and could benefit from North American equivalent stated. Thanks for the info.
Point taken…
The 44.o grains of 2206 is your load. Forget all the blaming yourself for the flyers when you have 2 bullets touching and 1 far away. Load 9 more rounds of the 2206 at 44.0 grains and see if you get repeated good 1/2" 3 shot groups like you did. It helps to clock your velocities also. You sound like you have a lot of good experience and are a good shooter. Thus, I don't think you were causing the flyers. I see this all the time when I'm developing loads and what I have found is one of the main reasons you get a flyer is due to inconsistent neck tension on that one piece of brass in that group.
As I said, I’m not a huge believer in barrel break-in, but I do believe they settle down a bit once they’ve had a few rounds down the tube. It was a big day at the range and I was getting a bit tired and bashed around. Hunting trip soon I’m hoping.
@@2clicksup910 I used to be serious about barrel break in. Then I learned it's not necessary. I agree with you that they do settle down over time, especially the throat. I just picked up two new Tikka rifles and the first thing I do is borescope them. The 270 Stainless had a lot of chatter where the reamer cut the lands so I took some Kroil and swabbed the bore, then to the Iosso paste out and worked the throat really well. Still rough but a bit better. It's going to take about 40 rounds to smooth it up. The throat on any new barrel, be it custom aftermarket or factory need "seasoning" but not necessarily that old shoot and clean process.
@@derekmcmurry found my 17WSM shot all over the shop for about 40 rounds, then it just dialled in no dramas. It’s only a Rimfire, but same principle. Rounds down the tube tend to give it a bit of a hone.
Criokie!
