RL-15 and the M1A
Gents, found a pile of 168 gr hornady BTHP's and have a jug of RL-15 was thinking about trying. Can someone give me an op rod friendly starting point for 600+ yards? I will work up 200 and 300 yards later with different projs, but figure I can shoot the 168's across the course for the time...- LRANGE50

Sako M995 (TRG-S) .338LM: poor man's base rifle?
Re: Sako M995 (TRG-S) .338LM: poor man's base rifle? Thanks DesertHK, Swamper and Guido. The QB has called a time out. I am getting the obvious sense the barrel is the key here. $800 for a $2500 - 3K project may indeed be the wrong strategy. I am in fact committed to the 338LM though. You...- LRANGE50

After shooting a 50 for 3+ years it is relative....right? gol1 good points. Glock42, wow, very nice. I guess I hadn't...- LRANGE50

Sako M995 (TRG-S) .338LM: poor man's base rifle?
Well guys I found a M995 in .338LM and was wondering if it might be a decent option to consider as an entry rig/build base. From some previous posts it looks like restocking might be an issue. Seems McMillan has figured out the lower metal, so it can be done. Also have a call into McRee's as a...- LRANGE50
