    Trying to decide

    I’m trying to decide on a scope for my new rifle. This is going on a Bergara Premier Ridgeback .300 PRC. Main purpose is to shoot 600 - 1500 yards. Price isn’t necessarily a factor, although I don’t want to spend more than is necessary if I’m not going to get something for it. I’ve had...

    Advanced Marksmanship 500 Yard Range trip

    So this was my third trip to the 500 yd range at Rockwall Gun Club and the bull doesn't elude me any more. . Previously I've been all around it but got it this trip. This is with a 6.5 Creedmoor Howa 1500 using a Vortex Razor HD Gen II scope and a sandman-s suppressor. Ammo was Hornady 140 Gr...

    So, I've got my initial package figured out for now. Howa 1500 HCR in 6.5 Creedmoor Vortex Razor HD Gen II 3-18x50 milrad 20 MOA base I put my money in the glass as I hear is the proper way to go. Figure I'll use this then get my bigger one later. What do y'all think?

    I really appreciate all the info. I'm going to do two different rifles. My local guy gave me a good deal on a Howa 1500 HCR in 6.5 Creedmoor. Trying to decide on a scope now. I was leaning toward a Vortex AMG but it looks like the wait times are outrageous so I'll probably be going with a razor...

    I used to. Haven't reset it up since I moved about 2 years ago. I'm about to though.

    Fair enough. I've all but ruled out .338 Lapua, but I think I'm strongly favoring the .300 win mag. I've shot that round before, 7mm mag as well and the recoil for neither bothers me. I've been reading a thread on the hide about .300 win mag vs 6.5 creedmoor from a couple years ago and it's...

    I was thinking custom but I'm still trying to decide.

    Fair enough. Recoil doesn't worry me much, I've shot the big calibers and I have plenty of rifles, my main "big" caliber has always been .308. I have an Ar10 tactical 16 now I was out shooting today as well as a ddm4. I have no issue putting down multiple hundreds of rounds per day with these...

    What advantage, other than about $0.70 - $1 per round, does that have over .300 Win mag? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the .300 is going to have more energy correct?

    Recommendations for rifle

    So, I want to get a really nice rifle as I want to get into long range shooting. My local range is only 300 yards but I want to learn to take it beyond 1k. Longest I've shot prior is 500. Budget is 10k maybe. This is my one dream rifle so it has to be superb. I was thinking .260 originally but I...

    AR-10 bullet weights

    So I have an AR-10 and am used to shooting 175 - 180 grains through it and its predecessor. Am curious if there is any benefit to shooting a 147 gr bullet like the m80? Any opinions with reasons?

    Suppressors Adding/Removing Trustees

    Re: Adding/Removing Trustees Awesome info. I didn't figure selling the trust was wise at the very least. Figures I would get the answer to be sure though. . Thanks for the great replies.

    Suppressors Adding/Removing Trustees

    Re: Adding/Removing Trustees What if you want to sell an item and you sell the trust along with it. Does it have to go through the process again or how does that work?
