    Looks like Amex has gone WOKE

    It all comes down to costumer service. Sometimes local banks just don’t have the man power to take care of their costumers afterhours.

    NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

    Just did a barrel swap on my Rim-x. I took off the proof carbon fiber and installed a 19” SS proof competition. I tried SK standard + and Lapua Long Range. Surprisingly the SK gave me better results, but I’m still not thrilled with them. About 0.6”@50m Lapua was closer to 1”@50m. The CF barrel...

    NEW From Zermatt Arms - RimX Actions

    I came across a decently priced RimX rifle and couldn’t let it pass. It was equipped with an MPA Matrix, Vortex Razor Gen 2 and a 20” Proof Carbon barrel. My first impression was that it was way out of balance with the barrel being so light so I swapped the chassis for a Manners EH1 I had lying...

    Who has built a "do it all" rifle?

    It´s a little slimmer on the forend area, easier to handle IMO. the T2 might ride the sandbags better with the wider frond, but for all around use I find the EH1 a little better

    6.5x47L vs 6.5cm question

    I have a 18.5" barrel on one and had awesome results using IMR4166. I'm getting 2770fps with 143 hornady ELD-X´s using hornady brass. You might wanna take look at that powder. I was using the same load of RL17 as in my 26" barrel and was getting around 2680fps. I believe the slower burning RL17...
