    Scope paralysis

    Sure....but "walking it in" relies on consistency and repeatability. I am talking about random dispersion. A 3moa rifle/ammo combo will center punch a 1/4moa bullseye at some point if you fling enough rounds at it. Ern

    Scope paralysis

    Just goes to show you......if you have enough time and ammo......almost any long range shot is possible. Don't get me wrong......they improved their chances as much as possible with the right gear and the right knowledge.......but to me this is equivalent to buying a pallet of 22lr and going to...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    I pick them up......depending on model between $900-$1200. I prefer no modifications........no muzzle threads.....no aftermarket trigger. Ern

    Barrel Profile: Heavy for Hunters

    #4 bull sporter, works great with mag cartridges while still fitting in a traditional style stock......like a mcm htg....or manners T. Give me a #4 over a carbon wrapped any day......you are getting a much better barrel with all steel.

    Which short action magnum?

    Haha.......anyone remember the 243/dtac days with h1000 and 29" barrels? I tried something similar with 260ai, imr7828ssc, and long barrels. Great results but recoil was so much worse than the little weenie 6mm nowadays.

    Which short action magnum?

    My vote is 300wsm all the way. I use sorted winchester brass. Ern

    Which short action magnum?

    Absolutely. Just like everyone being scared of bullet jump. Some of the most accurate ammo/rifle combos I have jump bullets over .100" Ern

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    For those who don't reload but want the best performance. I had a situation about two years ago..... Built a 338winmag for a guy......had to rent a reamer (saami spec). Customer was dead set on Barnes ammo, he sent in a box. Shot terrible 1.5-2" if I remember correctly. I ended up buying dies...

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    To answer your question directly. When a customer reloads and still gets bad results the rifle comes back to me for full inspection, accuracy testing, and full warranty re-barrel if needed. But if a customer says.......I bought tons of remington core-lokts (or any other factory ammo) and the...

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    Hahaha......after they get out of the hospital and pick up the pieces my insurance agent can show them the QC sheet and factory ammo test fire casing logged with their order. Other than that, I guess we are both shit outta luck.....

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    Absolutely, so I try my best to work with that. The best solution I have found is to get the customer to try a few basic trouble shooting things. Swap ammo, swap scope, swap shooter. Other than that.....send it back for full inspection and accuracy test (possible handloading). If it passes and...

    You send your barrel back because "It won't shoot" - first thing the maker does is.....

    Given that M24s are 1moa rifles/118lr at best.......and its common that "off the shelf" 308win rifles shoot 1moa ish......you may be disappointed in your wishes.
