Remington No 1 Creedmoor

[J.B.]

Thanks for the photos FM. and sorry it took a few days to acknowledge them. The photos do help with the overall description though and it appears your Remington blows out to a straighter case wall that the 'already fairly straight' Shiloh chamber although they are pretty close to each other when compared to the basic case. I've been predominantly loading gg bullets in my rifle but several moulds down the track I'm using a gg bullet with graduated bands that allows seating less than .2" in the case. With that allowance, 87 gns of Swiss 1.5 is fairly easy to load with a .06" wad and only the slightest compression. I wonder.. as had been suggested elsewhere, that the chamber in your rifle has the slighly larger neck to better match the increase in groove diameter of the barrel ? The inside diameter at the neck on a fired case when compared to the bore & groove diameter may be a better indicator of what your 'slick' ..and then your patched bullet should be. Just a thought anyway. Would really like to know the twist rate if you ever get the chance to check it. Thanks for the effort with the photos.
