    If you absolutely want to see some copper shoot a bunch of Barnes x bullets down it!!! Congrats on the new rig.. I have 2 Bartleins and another on the way. My Bartleins and Rocks both clean super..

    Gunsmithing .338 Lapua reamer question

    I stand by my suggestion. You can always load .010-.130 deeper but you can't get any closer if your max col is .050 off. Just giving you more seating options.. Not suggesting you have to or should jam the lands in the original post. Just trying to give the most options to have the rifle shoot...

    Gunsmithing .338 Lapua reamer question

    I would set it up so you can jam the rifling .010 with that bullet seated max COL. It will give you more options down the road and not take much if any performance away..

    Custom Action for Hunting Rifle?

    Re: Custom Action for Hunting Rifle? For a hunting rig I would build off a classic Win M70 standard length for 280ai. The claw and factory trigger are the most reliable around. 3 position safety. Will end up with a classic super reliable bullet proof rig.

    Rifle Scopes Minox 6-30

    Re: Minox 6-30 Great glass but that's where it ends. Rest of scope is Chicom crap(and I'm being nice). Have sent a 1.5-8x32 back 5 times scope was replaced with new each time. Occular piece kept getting loose side to side wouldn't hold zero. Ajustment was mushy on all of them and clicks...

    Rifle Scopes need help with hunting scope

    Re: need help with hunting scope Get a rail on it and use 2 scopes. Not gonna find what you want in one scope. A 1.5-6X42 is just about ideal for hunting big game at any reasonable distance.. Then mount a higher powered variable with turrets for everything else. Or comprimise on low end...
