    Rifle Scopes SWFA Samplelist and Trade in information requested

    Re: SWFA Samplelist and Trade in information requested I've bought an aim point T1 and a bushnell elite tactical off their sample list. Both were nicer than I would have anticipated. They ship fast too. I would highly reccomend them.

    How accurate is your AAC-SD?

    Re: How accurate is your AAC-SD? Mine has averaged about .6" at 100 yards using Varget, Winchester cases, br2 primers and 178 amaxs. I just bought a keg of Varget and the rifle seems to like this lot a little better. I'm seeing groups drop just a little bit so far. The only group I've shot...

    remington 700 w/sendero barrel vs tikka t3

    Re: remington 700 w/sendero barrel vs tikka t3 I've got a sendero sf 2 in .264 win mag and I'm seriously considering buying a 7 mag version some time soon for when I need more power. My .264 is a tack driver and has to be one of the least picky rifles I own. It shoots well with every...

    Manners molded in od green

    Re: Manners molded in od green I've got one of their stocks on order and they talked me into going with a solid molded in finish too. Seeing the pics posted above just confirms Manners steered me to exactly what I wanted out of my stock. Now if I can just manage to be patient for a while...

    Remington 700 AAC-SD 308

    Re: Remington 700 AAC-SD 308 I dropped mine in an HS-precision stock not long after I got it and it has been a great little rifle. I have stretched it out beyond 300 yards yet but it has held sub .75 moa out to that distance. I shot a .960" center to center group at 200 yards the last time...

    Zen Ray Dealer?

    Re: Zen Ray Dealer? From when I've been looking for them, SWFA has had the best pricing by a good margin. Not sure if that's still the case, but regardless, SWFA is great to deal with

    Has Varget Settled Down???

    Re: Has Varget Settled Down??? 44.5 grains of Varget with 178 amaxs has shot the same way out of my .308 across three different lots of Varget. I have been shooting Varget for only a couple of years, but so far it has been very consistent for me.

    Longest shot you've made with an AR-15

    Re: Longest shot you've made with an AR-15 535 yards is as far as I've shot my 6920, it performed just fine and using expanding bullets terminal performance was still sufficient to kill anything I'd shoot with 5.56 ammo. Ballistic testing was done using a wet phone book. The only times I...

    Rifle Scopes Nikon monarch

    Re: Nikon monarch I've been shooting Nikons for a long time and have been happy with them. My first scope was a 3-9x40 (pre-monarch) I bought when I was some where around your age, maybe even a little younger. I have several Monarchs now and they're all on rifles that are primarily hunting...

    Pressure Signs from what should be a moderate load

    Re: Pressure Signs from what should be a moderate load I've shot Winchester and LC brass through my AAC-SD and saw very little difference in pressure signs between the two cases. My final loads were usually identical powder charges. For example, 44.5 grains of Varget behind a 178 grain AMAX...

    Best 50-55gr. bullets for 22-250

    Re: Best 50-55gr. bullets for 22-250 I learned to reload on my .22-250 and have run a bunch of different bullets and powders through it. I've had good to great results with the 50 grain Nosler ballistic tips using imr 4895 and benchmark. A friend of mine's pet load with this bullet uses the...

    BAR 300 win mag

    Re: BAR 300 win mag I have a 7mm mag BAR and it shoots a variety of reloads well to supeisingly well. I did have to get a small base die for it, but that was kin of expected on my end. Also, I can't think of any loads where it didn't show pressure signs before book max so be sure and load...

    .264 win mag loads

    Re: .264 win mag loads 63.5 grains of retumbo behind a 140 grain amax is my go to load for my sendero. Hunting load is the max charge for 130 grain bullets (130 grain Nosler accubond) using winchester supreme 780. Can't remember the charge weight offhand, but it's book max. That load...

    Deer Hunting .308 Round

    Re: Deer Hunting .308 Round I like Hornady's 150 grain SST a lot for .308 hunting loads, but I only handload it and haven't shot it with factory ammo. I have shot the 150 grain Hornady soft points in factory ammo and have had good luck with them. For unknown distance shooting, especially...

    Re: Starting with a fresh Remington 700 AAC-SD .308 ^^^ nice shooting. I havent gotten to take mine out past 100 yet. I'm kind of following the same philosophy you are with my AAC-SD build. New stock (hs precision vertical grip), and a monarch scope for the time being. I've found the...

    Mk 12 SPR 77 Gr Sierra King Match

    Re: Mk 12 SPR 77 Gr Sierra King Match I've run everything down to 50 grain ballistic tips in my 1:7 AR (colt 6920) with excellent results. The 52 grain amax is the single most accurate bullet I have shot through that rifle too. Ive also had recent excellent results with the newer 53 grain...

    Same old problem 7mm RM or 300 WM

    Re: Same old problem 7mm RM or 300 WM I've got a .264 win mag and love it, but I'm debating the same question as the OP for one of my next rifle purchases. Those two calibers carry more energy than .264 at long range which is why I'm looking at them.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns GRAPHIC - Charging bore with 1911

    Re: GRAPHIC - Charging bore with 1911 I have killed a bunch of hogs deer and coyotes and they all react differently to being hit with a bullet. From my experience, how they react depends on a couple of things. First, it depends on the animal, second it depends on shot placement and bullet...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns IWB Holster

    Re: IWB Holster I'll second that whole heartedly. I've got a CTAC that I've had for 7 years or so. It gets carried almost everywhere. Great holster and great service.
