Lapua 155 gr Scenar with G1 BC of .508. But how far will it hold that BC and what does it drop to when it drops? Also, that bullet has a large hollow point cavity, so with such little weight in the nose, I would guess it can get rather twitchy ( sensitive) in the wind at 800-1000 yds compared...

What are the advantages and disadvantages of FFP vs SFP for ELR? I know that both the retical appears to enlarge when the magnification is turned up on a FFP scope and that it's zero doesn't change with magnification. Are there any drawbacks to a FFP scope when shooting long range / extreme...

I am looking hard at the LWRC 7.62 x 51 Nato, in 20 inch barrel with a 1:10 twist. I WOULD LIKE FEEDBACK FROM PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY SHOOT THIS RIFLE, and not just general theorists, as to how adequate/accurate this rifle is ,IN THIS CONFIGURATION, for true long range, 800 yds and further. The...

Re: Top rifle builders in the US for ELR large caliber I do plan on getting a .338 later, but for now I am sticking to the 375 CT.

I have a lot of questions about the 375 Chey Tac, and when I first joined this forum several hours ago, I made the mistake of posting those questions in the "bolt action section" instead of here. So here goes: (1) Best actions for a 375 CT? I prefer a repeating action but have been advised...

Re: Coriolis Effect 3/75, as US 'special operations' snipers my self I'll take you up on that PM. It might not mean a lot to most shooters on this site but I'm tired of the bad rep, our profestional image is becoming tarnished and its coming from both the fakers and some legit dudes that...

Re: 375 CT Shooters Speak Up!! Funny Rich, But being presumptive you are at about 15 MOA, with no decimal point between the 1 and the 5. Not my first custom rifle. And I have owned several bolt guns. But it is my first custom ELR rifle. LOL Also, new to the sight, so I will look for...

Re: Top rifle builders in the US for ELR large caliber Hi Rich, Thanks for raising some good questions about reamer, twist, bullet. I need to find out from people with "hands on successful experience" with the 375 CT to know which bullets work best, and with which rate of twist. I have...

I am asking this question to 375CT shooters: what are the best barrel lengths and tapers to use for Extended Long Range shooting past 2,000 yards using a 375 Chey Tac? I am having a 375 CT built, not a factory gun, and the action and barrel taper are up in the air till I get it all ironed out...

How light can a 375 CT be and still be comfortable to shoot with a muzzle brake and prone position?? I am seeing rifle weights of 16 pounds to 31 pounds for this cartridge. Of course it would be the best of all worlds to maximize "luggability" while maintaining accuracy and relative comfort...

I am having a 375 CT built and would like to know about rate of twist for the high BC lathe turned monolithic bullets for extended long range. Are you guys using the standard 11.5 inch twist, or are you going tighter? Cheyenne Tactical uses an 11.5 inch twist on their M200, 375CT, but more...

I think the gun will weigh 18-21 pounds, chambered for 375 Chey Tac. I am wondering which is more appropriate muzzle break: a 3 port, 3 inch long muzzle break, or a longer 4 1/4 inch muzzle break with 5 ports. Barrel length will be 29-30 inches, or maybe even 32 max. What I want to do is...

Who are the top rifle builders in the US for larger bore ELR rifles like the .375 Chey Tac? I am going to have one built and want to make sure the guy can mate the barrel to the action properly so no accuracy is wasted. No what I mean? Thanks.

I am building a .375 Chey Tac and I have to have, and desire to have a cheekpeice that is adjustable left to right for cast-off. Since I am a right handed shooter, that means I would move the cheekpeice out to the right 2/16-3/16 of an inch to put my eye over the center of the reciever/barrel...
