William Ryder provides a comprehensive breakdown of his gear setup for the 2025 NRL Hunter season. He details his rifle components, including the Terminus Zeus action, Manners LRH stock, and Leupold Mark 5 optic, explaining the 'what and why' behind each choice. Ryder also covers essential support gear such as shooting bags, tripods, and his pack contents, emphasizing weight limits and practical considerations for competition.

This video details an advanced load development technique for the 300 Win Mag using Berger 200.20X Hybrid Target bullets and Hodgdon H1000 powder. The instructor employs a 'plateau method' by testing 10 charge weights across three overall lengths, aiming to identify charge weight regions where muzzle velocity remains consistent despite minor charge variations. The analysis focuses on correlating velocity data with accuracy to find a forgiving and precise load, while also exploring the impact of overall length.

This video details the process of finishing the break-in and conducting extensive load development for a Savage 110 Precision rifle in .300 Winchester Magnum. The instructor tests a wide array of bullet weights (110gr to 240gr) paired with numerous powders, meticulously recording velocity, group size, standard deviation, and extreme spread data. The content emphasizes a systematic approach to finding optimal loads, troubleshooting issues like hang fires and cold-weather performance, and offers insights into bullet stabilization and powder burn rates.

This video reviews Peterson's new 300 Winchester Magnum 'Long' brass, highlighting its potential to improve case life due to a longer base-to-shoulder measurement. The presenter compares it to standard Hornady and Jag brass, noting the Peterson Long brass is closer to the fired dimensions of his rifles' chambers. This suggests less stretching and fewer reloads before potential case head separation, though it comes at a higher price point.

This guide details a comprehensive reloading and testing process for the 130gr Sierra GameChanger bullet in 6.5 Creedmoor, as demonstrated by Johnny's Reloading Bench. It covers brass selection (Peterson vs. Starline), primer choice (CCI No. 41), OAL considerations for different rifle platforms (T/C Compass vs. AR-10), and load development with Alliant Reloader 16. The guide emphasizes meticulous reloading techniques, range testing with a MagnetoSpeed V3 chronograph, and ballistic gel evaluation for terminal performance.
