Re: 4x4 Side-by-side I went from big muddin' quads with all the bells and whistles rev box, over size radiators, elk suspension, snorkels to a teryx last year so the kids could ride with us more. 1 riding partner-neighbor- runs a rhino, 1 runs a can am commander. the guy with the commander...

Re: Millette Scopes i have one on a 24" heavy barrelled AR and find it works fine. off bags out to 200yds it shoots hornady V-max bullets to 2 1/4" which is all i expect out the that particular set up. the reticle is satisfactory but i think lacking in low light conditions. i think it's an...

Re: Roscoe Pic Thread did the virgin trip to the range yesterday with the new 7-300wsm that william put together for me. Couldn't be happier with the build and William is a stand up guy that i'd highly recommend to anyone that asks.

Re: 5 calibers everyone should own Mine... 22LR 12 ga 5.56 on some sort of AR frame 9.3x62 (personal favorite thumper) 45 (sub-compact, single stack for concealablity) I know i didn't include a long range round but IF i could only have 5 this would cover any scenario i can come up with.

Re: Terrible news from La Precision Rifles apologies for killing off william in the title, i'll be more careful in the future. On the upside-William was great to work with, updated me from time to time to let me know everything was on track and it sure looks like he put together exactly what...

Re: Terrible news from La Precision Rifles now that is what i call a good looking rifle. i guess that'll get me through the next couple weeks. Looks great william-thanks for putting up the pics

Re: Terrible news from La Precision Rifles rem 700 donor action, after market bolt. mcmillan stock in woodland camo, bolt knob, vais brake. 20 minute rail, fluted 24" barrel, metals all dura coated green and chambered in 7-300wsm. should be a good one

William sent a note and says the new gun is done except the for rail and rings, and i'm still at work out of the country for another 2 weeks. So now how am i supposed to get anything done? Only thing to make this worse is if william posted a pic for me (a little gun porn). Can't wait to see...

Re: neck sizing question new lapua and remington brass being necked down for a 7-300wsm. Using RCBS case lube-used it for years with all my other reloading. Always used full length dies in the past but tried to get out of having a custom die made for the 7-300.

re-sizing some 300wsm brass down to 7 wsm using a .314 bushing in a redding die. I have the bushing depth screw dialed all the way in until it hits the bushing and then backed off 1/2-3/4 turn to let the bushing float. seem to be getting a slight bell at the case mouth. first time using...

Re: Swarovski Ballistic Turret? don't know if this helps you or not but the turrets on a swarovski can be changed out by the factory for $190. Maybe a cheaper swarovski (oxy-moron) and then have the ballistic turrets retro-fitted.

if you found the right deal on a swarovski 6x18x50 would non-target turrets be a deal breaker-it does have the ballistic plex reticle? would standard turrets rule out the scope for you for a long range hunter/target gun and why. Thanks Boomer

Re: mcmillan stock/bedding question no-i intended to bed and mount the stock. stock was ordered to fit that rifle though-had the info i sent them taped to the stock when it arrived.

Re: mcmillan stock/bedding question thanks everyone-appreciate the help

waited 8 months for a mcmillan stock to come in for CZ550FS. Problem is that the pocket/recess for the lug doens't fit. going to have to dremel the stock to move the recess back towards the action about 3/8". Just want to make sure this isn't going to be an issue once i get it all bedded...
