    New .260 is finally done - update

    Re: My new .260 is finally done. That sure looks nice. Sure wish they'd gone with 7x57 or 6.5x57 instead of 7.62x51 Nato fifty-five years ago. From the 1980's and early 1990's, I have enough 308 brass and projectiles to last me the rest of my life. Oh well.

    Bobby Hart LTR Laminated Heavy Barrel Riflestocks

    Re: Bobby Hart LTR Laminated Heavy Barrel Riflestocks I've been wondering about this myself. Pillar bedded. Have you or anyone else done anything about this? It would even be possible to put an adjustable cheekpiece on it. And the wood is there to carve out a butt hook if desired...

    Beacause I'm cheap.

    Re: Beacause I'm cheap. At 500 yards, the bullets will be descending some instead of traveling horizontally. For what that is worth. If they are lead or lead core instead of solids, I wouldn't expect them to bounce back. Of course, one which hits the edge or the support might do something...

    .308 Custom Barrel Recomendation

    Re: .308 Custom Barrel Recomendation For what it is worth, the "revolutions per minute" (RPM) of the projectile is a result of muzzle velocity and twist. Muzzle velocity is partially a result of barrel length. So a slower twist that might work with a given bullet in a 30 inch barrel might...

    Savage F/TR or Rem 700P

    Re: Savage F/TR or Rem 700P I just bought a Remington 5R for hunting and F/TR. I wanted the 24" barrel for use in a hunting blind and the 1:11.25 for stabilization of up to 180 gr bullets out of the 24 inch barrel. And I want my F/TR to provide practice for my hunting. Also, for a given...

    Rebarrel options for a long action 270

    Re: Rebarrel options for a long action 270 The 30-06 will probably be the cheapest to reload for, but that may not be the highest priority for you. If you are wanting a shorter barrel, then something like the 6.5x55 or 260 remington (almost the same cartridge as the 6.5x55) would be a better...

    Unexpected markings on rem 700 5R

    Re: Unexplained markings on rem 700 5R I guess it is something that Remington has started doing recently, maybe just on certain production lines. Or maybe at different times on different production lines. Not a big deal, I think. Just a curiosity.

    making a laminate stock.

    Re: making a laminate stock. Short answer is no, I haven't. But, since we have decided to assist our grandkids with college (long story on their parents' priorities), something like this may be in my future rather than the olive drab AICS 1.5 I was planning for my R5 a week ago. Here are...
