    Dose a 700 pss .308 have muzzle flip

    Re: Dose a 700 pss .308 have muzzle flip Shooting heavy fast .308 loads will give a bit of muzzle flip, this is especially true if your technique is not perfect. IMHO it can be difficult to watch a bullet going in through the scope without a can or a brake.

    NOOB INTRODUCTION AND QUESTION

    Re: NOOB INTRODUCTION AND QUESTION Definate split in opinion about breaking in barrels. I always have done as I have came from a benchrest type background so would all my guns have shot as well without the break in?

    Need feedback on my groups

    Re: Need feedback on my groups The gun probably will shoot amaxs when you get the load right. Also nobody has asked yet but are you a sub minute shooter? I see loads of guys at my range shooting awesome gear who couldnt hit water if they fell outta a boat. You maybe have to get used to the...

    Noob, Am I on the right track?

    Re: Noob, Am I on the right track? Dont worry about the 26'' barrel, if its a range gun who gives a crap you will get a bit more velocity than the ninja next to you with his 16'' cut down .308. 168 smk's the way to go.

    butch's bore shine

    Re: butch's bore shine Kroil is a penetrating oil, not a copper solvent, doubt it will clean out copper. Butches is very good for copper, but I have never used it in a chrome barrel so cant comment

    Need feedback on my groups

    Re: Need feedback on my groups This is very confusing. Do some homework, find 1, I repeat 1 bullet that has good results out of your rifle. Buy some of these bullets, now do some more homework and find a decent powder that works well with the chosen bullet and your rifle. Now work up a load...

    Not too shabby for a factory 700

    Re: Not too shabby for a factory 700 Whats the rule everybody. Its dosent count unless its 5 rds and even then you need about 30 of them on the same sheet. Under 1" @ 300 is good stuff in my book.

    Recommend me some sniper books.

    Re: Recommend me some sniper books. The best by a long long shot (excuse the pun) Out Of Nowhere - A History of the Military Sniper. Pegler Great interesting read, i have loads of sniper books but this the most thorough and dosent just deal with a single branch like US marine snipers.

    Day at the range with new Sako Trg22

    Re: Day at the range with new Sako Trg22 Good luck with the TRG. It dosent really get any better than this, I havent seen 1 yet that does not shoot as you describe with a competant driver. If you are going to shoot F class with it try the 155 scenars, they work very well out of the standard...

    Poll: Do you shoot cheap/fmj/surplus .308 ammo???

    Re: Poll: Do you shoot cheap/fmj/surplus .308 ammo??? I havent shot factory match or cheap crap surplus since I learned to load for my rifles and pistols. Dunno about USA but here in UK we can always load cheaper than we can buy and better more accurate rds too.

    Considering selling my 5R and buying a TRG or AIAE

    Re: Considering selling my R5 and buying a TRG or AIAE Both great, peas in a pod. TRG stock fits me better, AI stock fits my shooting buddy better, pay your money and take your choice. You will NOT outshoot either rifle. Go .308, more shooting for the money and none of that nasty flinch...
