I am shooting the Nosler Varmageddon 55gr with 38 grains of Varget.

First time out with my new 22-250 Ackley and I was able to put a dog in the dirt. The gun was built by Kampfeld Custom. Cartridge: 22-250 Ackley Barrel: Krieger 1-12 twist with a #17 Heavy Varmint Contour Stock: H-S Precision Tactical in Grassland Camo Trigger: Jewell Scope: Nightforce NXS...

I am building a 22-250 AI and I was going to use the H-S Precision detachable magazine bottom metal and I was wondering what kind of COAL I will be able to achieve? Do these magazines severely limit my COAL over a standard Remington bottom metal? Thanks, Eric

I have run both H380 and Varget in my current 22-250 however, I have had huge problems with H380 and temperature swings.

I am building my first custom rifle on the Model 700 platform and I was looking for some opinions on the 22-250 Ackley. I am going to admit, I like the cartridge mainly because of its cool factor and the extra velocity. This gun will be a predator gun so quick follow up shots will be...

After how much I enjoyed my first AR-15 build I decided to build another that is a little more manageable and something I can shoot for fun. My first AR-15 build had a specific job and that job was to kill predators. What I wanted was a long, heavy, and accurate machine that would make staying...

After getting the itch to build a custom rifle I decided that rather than building a bolt action rifle, I would add a completely unique semi-auto weapon to my arsenal. I am a stickler for accurate rifles so of course I had my doubts about a semi-auto. I assumed there was no way you could...

We rarely get a coyote to come in past first light but this one decided to show up on the second setup of the morning. Luckily, she decided to cooperate and present a shot even with two panicked hunters flinging guns and cameras around. Enjoy...! Article on the build can be found HERE

It's a rare occurrence in the East, but on this morning we got to enjoy a "textbook hunt." One that is effortless. One where everything falls into place, everything works. The coyotes do their part. They come into the call, and they go down after the shot! The type of hunt which always...

We always struggle with trying to figure out how long we should stay on a stand and this time we prove to be "dead" wrong. It took a little over 45 minutes for these dogs to show up. We usually only call a stand for 25-30 minutes but this was just one of those stands that just looked too good...
