    Hunting/Plinking build - thoughts on weight?

    Haha that’s exactly what I’m trying to do! I already have a few factory rifles that have been getting the job done, so I think I’ll er on the side of having a long range tac driver and if I hate hauling the behemoth around enough, then I’ll put my new fancy scope on one of those instead. I...

    Hunting/Plinking build - thoughts on weight?

    That’s the plan (barrel swapping eventually), the only downside I found with the tikka action is that I don’t think they can accommodate a long, high bc bullets like the 215 Berger that I’m planning to use.

    Hunting/Plinking build - thoughts on weight?

    Thanks for the input! I primarily elk hunt and live in Colorado. I’ve been elk hunting for 20ish years with a standard store bought Remington 30-06 or 300 win mag and honestly most of my kills have been inside of 300 yards - but I’d like to be able to poke out to 6 or 700. I think I might...

    Best bang for the buck 300 win mag for 215g bergers?

    Not too concerned on weight. Ideally gun would be 10 to 12lbs. 26" barrel, 1 in 9 twist.

    Hello all, Pretty simple question. Im looking for a 1000yd elk rifle and want a 300 win mag shooting 215g bergers. What is the best value sub Moa gun available? Christensen arms? Ruger precision rifle? Savage? Is there some custom combo that would provide better value? Really wanting to keep...

    Awesome R, thanks for your feedback. Anyone else have a similar or different experience?

    KRG X-Ray vs MPA BA Lite Side Folding Chassis for long range hunting

    Thanks for the response Rthur. I could definitely save some weight and scratch by not going with the folding option. The advantage I saw was transportation in a vehicle, but that is honestly not much of a concern. I had also thought that I may be able to strap it onto my pack for easier hiking...

    KRG X-Ray vs MPA BA Lite Side Folding Chassis for long range hunting

    I do really like the W3 gen 5 and I'm glad that you are having good luck with yours! For my particular purpose, I just cant really justify the extra weight and expense when I will most likely set the stock up once and never alter it again. If I was going to be altering the stock very often I...

    Hello everyone. I am building a long range hunting rig in 28 Nosler and have narrowed down my chassis options to these two. I have found a lot of people praising the x-ray but haven't found anyone with much experience with the Lite-folding MPA chassis. Can anyone with experience with both...
