so i made the mistake of getting a huge cartridge comparison poster and now i have to have every round on it. just looking at the poster the 338-378 weatherby looks pretty similar to the 338 lapua imp. looking at load data and velocity the 338-378 seems to vary a lot. some guys get around 3000...

com in from a man who likes a bit of "tantric thrust" ;) haha some of us are a bit more comfortable with our masculinity i suppose.

all said and done im think near $9k. definitely not going to be a budget build and it'll take near a year just to get money together! ever since I've decided to go big or go home on the action I've just decided to go for it and make myself a rifle that i can really be proud of and will hopefully...

like most of the above guys i too have no doubt that the savage will shoot I'm just trying to find whats best for the money. this rifle will have a TON of money tied up in it but i plan on getting as much fun/cool things i can while I'm young with no super heavy responsibilities and a TINK (Two...

so I've decided to for go my original plan of basing a .338 lapua off of a savage .338 action off of the advice from some of you folks here (there you go making me spend all of my hard earned dollars on something actually worth it again) so i figure i might as well put up what I'm planning on...

hahaha thinkin i might just stick with the tried and true! those are some monster bucks psinclair!

been using solid khaki for a good while and its never done me wrong from mulies to coyote but starting to think about getting some camo. what have y'all found to be a good pattern for out in the plains of southwest wyoming? thinking maybe the desert mar pat or go with a conventional pattern like...

i live in laramie so if any of y'all need a place to crash this coming season give me a holler!! hoping to get a few left over doe tags, ild like to get at least one antelope and one mulie but we'll see how the cards play out! if my residency kicks in before season i oughta see if i can get a...

any gun will do with the right shot placement. a 7mm rem mag is good for anything from speed goat up to elk. I've seen 7mm SAUM drop elk in a hurry at distance. I've been toying with the idea of building one myself. the real key is shot placement. you can shoot an elk in the heart with a .22-250...

i have the same kind of thing sitting in my safe. a winchester model 21 20gauge side by side with a matching set of barrels. $10k plus family heirloom. its in emaculate shape, I'm pretty timid to ever bring it out of its case let alone shoot it. the old gunny that helped teach me to shoot always...

thanks guys! answers my question

I've only very recently started to seriously look into US optics so forgive me for my ignorance! Ive read that US optics used to offer custom tube diameters in 30,34,35 and 40. most of where I've read this is in reviews from a few years ago. Longrangesupply.com allows for custom options and has...

1. y'all always talk me (or help me talk myself) into spending more money. everyone knows that tasco is every bit as good as US optics and that a savage action is just as smooth as a stiller 2. everyone here just knows too much. i spend hours on this site looking at threads and everyone...

hahaha well at least i know I'm getting honest answers! definitely going to start looking into custom actions more seriously.

thanks guys! that answers my questions, i appreciate it!
