    Wanting to start ELR target shooting

    I have been shooting out 1000 yards for about 12 years. I have decided I want to hit targets at 1 mile and 2000 yards. I shoot a 6.5x47L.

    6x47L vs 6.5x4L

    Fellow shooters, I have been shooting a 6.5x47L for probably 10 years. I really have liked this cartridge. I've been using 123 gn Scenars MV 3000. I have been thinking a lot about a 6x47L for a while. I do not compete any more so this new barrel is for recreational shooting only. The area I...

    Northern Shooter Supply

    They are closed until the 30th. So, I shoot a R700 short action that's been trued. My recoil lug is a PTG 0.350 thick. I know the Remage system needs a thinner recoil lug and NSS sells them. Does anyone know how thick they are and if they are precision ground lugs?

So, my question is would I be better off using a 140 grain bullet or 130 grain bullet with a shorter barrel?

    6x47 Lapua information

    Shot my 6.5x47L barrel out. Thinking about trying the 6x47L. I do not hear much about this cartridge. I figured it was the 6.5L necked down but the info I saw it has a 20° shoulder and not a 30° shoulder. That surprised me. Any of you that use this caliber please speak up and tell me your pros...

    Magneto Speed V3

    I have a sporter for several years worked good but finally quit working. I shoot suppressed now so I got a Caldwell for a replacement. I regret that purchase, the chrono want link up with the app on cell phone so it's really useless. Are the V3's good to go for suppressed rifles?

    Buffer Weights?

    I'm building 6mm ARC, and I will be trying to squeeze all the velocity I can out of it. I did this once with a 6.5 Grendel. I used a adjustable gas block and a Tubb bolt carrier weight and was very successful with it. But Tubb has discontinued the carrier weight. So increasing the weight of...
