I found this updated part number for the valve grind kit (head gasket kit), for my 2004 4Runner SR5 (1GRFE) this price from the UAE for that number seems cheap… is this the right OEM part number?
I’ve heard that Amayama is legit, but I’ve only used Partsouq in the past. Any personal experience with them?
TLDR: can someone give me ogive to base measurement for a 168gr SMK and/or 168gr Hornady Match (not ELD-M)
Hey everyone, newer reloader here!
I’ve been doing quite a bit of load development on my rifles, my most recent being a leftie T3X in .308win
I’ve worked up a couple really awesome hunting loads for my rifle (Barnes TSX and a TTSX), but after I got to a good place with those I decided I needed a good target shooting load for the rifle, for shooting steel targets from 200 to 600 yds. I was playing around with some of the cheap Hornady FMJ-BT 150gr projectiles, and got them to shoot very accurate.
Then I came across the ol’ factory seconds on Midway USA. I ordered some of those up, and well… My rifle loves them, so much so that I’m curious if anyone could help me identify them.
They’re either 168gr SMK’s or 168gr Hornady BTHP Matches. Once my stash of these runs out, I’d like know what they are. I have a comparator tool.
I was wondering if anyone with a 168gr Hornady Match, and someone with a 168gr SMK could give me a base to ogive measurement.
A little while ago I posted about potentially getting a little meetup going in Northern Colorado (Fort Collins, Loveland, Longmont, etc). This would be a super casual meetup oriented around getting new hunters, seasoned hunters, people looking for a hunting buddy, or just want to get together with people.
As far as venue, I’m open to ideas. Breweries are easy to get smallish groups together and are easy for people to come and go as they please.
I’m thinking a Saturday afternoon?
As far as location, the feedback I’ve received is that there are people spread throughout Larimer and Boulder county that have shown interest. So maybe somewhere close to those areas?
Feedback encouraged, what do yall think?
Mods, lmk if this isn’t a good place to put this.
