    Which BM for 338 Edge?

    I have a nearly completed 338 Edge on a Surgeon 1086 action, 30" Bartlein that will be in a Manners folding stock. The question is what bottom metal should I go with? This will primarily be a ELR hunting rifle; single load 300 Bergers and mag feed 280 LRX's. Thanks, 6.5x47

    first time hits at 2000+ yards

    If you want a powder measure that will measure to the 100th of a gr, go with the Acculab VIC123 or something comparable. I typically weigh +/- .01 gr. Alan

    Steel targets for 338 Edge

    I realize that Shawn C, loves H1000 and sometimes Retumbo getting approx 2800, give or take. Over on longrangeonly.com, Shawn's website, Rel 33 is getting some attention and about an extra 100-150 fps with quality accuracy and consistency. I've got four, 8-lb jugs of the stuff if I can just...

    Steel targets for 338 Edge

    Setting up a somewhat permanent range from 200 out to 2000 yds on a mountain face, up to a 20 deg uphill angle. 338 Edge with 300 Berger OTM's running, hopefully, 2950 fps. How thin can one go with AR500 steel before damage to the steel starts to occur and how close can one go before damage...

    Rifle Scopes ADM scope mount return to zero report

    A number of months ago I decided to try ADM (American Defense Manuf) products. I had been using their Trijicon Reddot mount and bipod mount with great success. Understanding the high cost of some of the scopes we prefer to use, I decide I wanted to try their ADM Recon SW (more width between...

    RUM case in AI long mag?

    Ok, I understand their are two different mags we're talking about here; the 300 WM and 338 mags. Since I'm getting the long action 2.0 AICS long action chassis can you tell from the pic which one I have? Are they different length mags?

    Utah Shootouts Carbine & Pistol, Dec. 7, 2013 - VIDEO

    Clint, I was car pooling up with 3-4 other guys. Just got a call and they are pulling out, not wanting to brave Soldier Summit's weather 2x in one day. Can't blame them. I'm thinking it over. Would it be prudent to reschedule? The shooting weather is not a problem. It's "do I put my...
