    Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle *PICS*

    Re: Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle Yes he did. I'm extremely pleased with his work. Pick his brain & experience and tell him what your application is going to be for the rifle and he'll make the barrel length, chamber & twist to work best. I had him set this up for SMK 175's...

    Rem700 action in AICS 2.0

    Re: Rem700 action in AICS 2.0 Well the rifle started life as a custom build. McMillan A5, Obermeyer barrel, it was built it as a competition rig with all the latest goodies at the time. I never liked the way it shot or felt. Sent it off to get the barrel shortened and threaded for my...

    77/22 Group Stock Buy?

    Re: 77/22 Group Stock Buy? After butting my head up against a wall looking for a stock for my 77/22 to replicate a M40 type training rifle I'm just going to order a VQ 77/22 stock from Midway and a .920 Shilen barrel and maybe in the future go with a bolt knob conversion. Thanks for all the...

    Rem700 action in AICS 2.0

    Re: Rem700 action in AICS 2.0 I'm taking it to the range today and will shoot and re-torque. Does the fact that you can shine light between the recoil lug and chassis face bother anyone other than me??

    Another SPS Package..love/hate relationship, Pics!

    Re: Another SPS Package..love/hate relationship, Pics! Mark - you can whine about those packages from sun up to sundown if they shoot like that. Nice work! Sounds like the Shoemaker's kids when it comes to your gear.

    Rem700 action in AICS 2.0

    Re: Rem700 action in AICS 2.0 Barreled action (21" Obermyer 11.25 twist .308) has an oversized recoil lug so the front area where the recoil lug fits into had to be machined out to allow it to fit. After dropping it into place you could hold a flashlight on each side of the recoil lug and you...

    Photos Remington 700P 300 Win Mag

    Re: Remington 700P 300 Win Mag I've got a 5.5-22 NF NXS on my 300 RUM and usually run it around 16 power due to mirage. Early in the morning I can use 22 power but that goes away when the heating up begins. That 12-24 is too much for that rifle. Leupold 4.5-14 or a NF 5.5-22 would do the trick.

    Re: Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle Ha! That worked. Thanks. Pics are ultra grainy and I'll update them next week when I get ahold of my wife's laptop and can upload quality closeups. But for now here it is. What I like about the receiver: - Thicker rear tang - Longer threaded...

    Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle *PICS*

    Re: Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle Well - today wasn't what I expected. My SD & ES's were all over the place as compared to yesterday. It would shoot the occasional 3-4 on top/touching each other then toss one off into never neverland. Groups were mostly .7's but had a couple in...

    What are the pros and cons of 300RUM

    Re: What are the pros and cons of 300RUM 800-1000 rounds period. Even less if you don't let the barrel cool down between strings. It makes HEAT and it's easy to kill your barrel fast! Love my 30ORUM - it's a laser beam on trajectory but hell on barrels. I'd probably prefer a 300 SAUM at this...

    Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle *PICS*

    Re: Just picked up my new BigHorn action rifle Shot the rifle the last couple of days. I do the barrel break-in procedure more from the standpoint of how well it cleans later on. 1 shot & clean for 4 rounds, 2 shots & clean, 2 shots & clean is all it took. Pretty much NO copper fouling now...

    Stepping into beginner long range: Help Needed

    Re: Stepping into beginner long range: Help Needed Eventually you'll want a 20 MOA tapered base and quality 30mm rings. I like the NF 20 moa base & rings. Badger or Leupold MkIV are good choices as well. For now go get some Fed GMM 168 to test in your new rig and I bet it will respond well...
