Re: 284 Winchester, should I switch to this round? Realistic .284 speeds are 2750-2850. My guess is if anyone says they are shooting a straight 284 at 2950 they need a new chronograph

Re: F-Class National Highpower Match Raton This is going to be fun

Re: Action Length If you already own a long action and want to build on it go for it. If your buying a new action I would go with a short action.

Re: Barrel Contour for New Build? For a 284 off of a Rem action I would go with a 30 inch HV taper. I think its been said already but all the flutes do is add unwanted cost to barrels that don't last that long anyway. Your 284 should go 2000 at least. I ran one to 2600 and it still had...

Re: Okc Gun Club F/TR Shooters I second getting a Sinclair F-T/R bi-pod. I would also stay clear of 168's. I run the matches up at Tulsa and I cant remember how many guys I have seen try and use these only to have them start tumbling at a 1000. Stick with the 155's in your palma barrel and...

Re: f open stock +1 for Precision Rifle and Tool. Rays stocks are great and he is usally not that far behind. I got a MBR patterned stock from Carl Bernosky a couple of years ago. Carl was great to deal with and the stock was very nice and he got it to me quickly. I would not hesitate to...
