    Precision 30-06 builds

    Reviving this awesome thread instead of starting a new one. Something a little different, my Sig-Sauer SSG3000 with a brand new Benchmark prefit 30-06 chambered with the Serengeti reamer, 1:10 twist with 5R. Stock is a GRS Bifrost. I’ve never seen another SSG with a 30-06 barrel on it, but it...

    Ross Mk3 1910 action build- Who wants to help me spend some money!

    Interesting that this thread got revived! I still have the the action but the build got put on hold for a while. I have a 6.5 barrel, just trying to find an importer for Richard’s microfit stocks and a smith who will inlet it. I don’t think I’m talented enough to take on that project. Then it...

    TRG appreciation thread - Part III

    I found a screaming deal today on a pre-13 green phosphate -22 and I’m running out of reasons not to buy it… Does Spuhr still make the TRG direct mount? I said I wasn’t gonna buy another rifle this year but it is my birthday tomorrow… lol.

    It’s not the same, completely different trigger unfortunately. They should’ve just kept the A1 trigger with a straight shoe.

    This is really cool, I’m excited to see what you come up with. You really think you can make AICS mags work? I would also buy but I’m in Canada, not sure is stock skins would be an ITAR item or not.

    It’s a Innorel ST384C off Amazon with a sunwayfoto IB-30 inverted ball head. The tripod is awesome, the head is a great light weight option for a fraction of the cost of the real RRS unit but it has some flex even when locked up. When I bought this setup RRS stuff was almost impossible to get in...

    Haven’t shot this thing in months, finally got out to brush off the rust and get in some tripod practice for whitetail season next month. Quick re-zero and a 3 round group then onto steel at 300 and 500 today.

    Thanks a bunch, I'll start at 80 and work my way up. I'll report back so there's some data on here.

    338 Lapua Magnum

    Has anyone here loaded the 270gr ELD-X with N565? doesn't seem to be any data online for this combo. Vihtavouri website has data for 250 and 300gr but no 270. Vihtavouri has min 80.4grs to max 90.3grs for the 250 scenar and min 77.2grs to max 84.9grs for the 300 scenar. Should I just split...

    30-06 build for long range!

    Yes you would need a new bolt with a .473” bolt face. If you build either one, use a good brake like the APA and it will recoil nice and easy, just not for the people beside you. Nothing wrong with a 7rem mag but the 30-06 with good hand loads will give damn near similar performance with...

    That’s too bad, I was going to buy one until I saw that. Going custom now.
