Re: Is a Savage Worth the time to customize I'm curious about the changing barrels idea, sending you an PM!

Re: Blackberry Ballistic Software???? I put gridmagic on mine and imported a ballistics excell program, I found the links somewhere on here, it works good theoretically and matches up with other programs on the internet. I haven't gotten any real world shooting with it yet though. Search on...

Re: whats the good .223 match factory ammo?? I've had good luck with Hornady 75gr tap. I haven't shot any yet but I hear black hills is the shit too!

Re: Long Range Ar15? I shot a 1/4" internet commando (3 round) group with my WOA at 100yds w/factory ammo, they are fantastic barrels. Definately don't skimp on the barrel if you looking for something accurate at 600 yds. A chrome lined delton or standard GI will not compare to a nice...

Re: Is a Savage Worth the time to customize Second time out with my model 12 and shot under 2" group at 300yds, I was very happy, I have under $1400 in mine total and very happy.

Re: 204 long range I was shooting 3" groups with little wind out to 450 with my stock rem sps in .204. I sold it however and went 223 so I could shoot something heavier at that range. Mine is for coyotes so I felt 75gr would be better. Accuracy was not a problem with the .204 at that...

I just went out this weekend, I have some 75gr TAP ammo from my last AR build which was 1/7 twist and it shot fantastic. I thought I'd try it through my new savage 1/9 twist 26" barrel. I wasn't sure if it would even stabilize through a 1/9 after reading a few articles. Anyway it shot pretty...

Re: Leopard Attack vid. I'm with you!!!

Re: hunting flat grassy terrain Sneak in to within a couple hundred yards downwind of where you think they will be at. Start calling with a mouse squeaker and gradually get louder with your normal calls. Setup about 60 yards from the edge of the cover you think they'll appear from (Downwind...

Re: TPC* Recent Coyote Nice shot! Lets see some more pics of that rifle too!

Re: Department issued me an M-14!! We were told ours could be modified however we like but they go back to uncle sam when we're done and can not be sold.

Re: hunter busted for bolting antlers on dead doe Well I guess it's better than leaving it lying where he shot it when he realized it was a doe. It doesn't sound like he was trying to win a buck pole contest or anything. Although I don't feel sorry for him, I can respect the fact he was...

Re: Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down? I already have an AR that I shot a nice fox with this winter. The AR is definately light enough but I have access to several farm fields where the shots get longer and we've had a lot of success over the last few years in the fields. That's why I...

Re: Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down? My other thought is find a shorter 1/7 barrel and buy it then sell off the 26" to recoup some money?

I came upon a great deal on a brand new savage model 12 and I'm turning it into my coyote gun. I'll try and get some pics up, it's a .223 1/9 twist 26" fluted stainless barrel. I have it in a B&C medalist stock w/Nikon 3-12 monarch scope. My last rig (SPS .204) I was easily shooting out to...
