    338 Edge - 300gr VLD - Not grouping

    Re: 338 Edge - 300gr VLD - Not grouping VLD are not my problem. Every VLD I have shot in other rifles have grouped great. Hybrids are my problem. These 300gr 338 hybrids are much more picky than the VLDs. Many people have said they can't get them to shoot and ended up selling theirs. I...

    338 Edge - 300gr VLD - Not grouping

    I have been trying to work up an accurate load for my edge with the 300gr vlds and H1000. I loaded up 88.0, 88.4, 88.8 and 89.2 and shot 2 sets of each at 600yds to see what they would do. 7 of 8 were within 2" of vertical with one flier 6 inches low. This gun shoots SMK300s great, but they...

    Re: Can anyone Identify this Stock??? The color just didn't look right for a B&C. It looks like black web on gray, which I didn't think they offered.

    Gunsmithing Can anyone Identify this Stock???

    I found a guy with a stock for sale but couldn't find any markings. The comb looks different than other stocks I have seen. It does have a packmeyer decelerator pad on it. Also, the front action screw hole looks like the Ruger 77mk2 type, not a rem 700 la like he says. Thanks guys. What is it????

    Gunsmithing Savage 7mm Problems with pics - Help!

    Re: Savage 7mm Problems with pics - Help! Still did the same thing! We then took out his savage 111 270wsm and it shot worse as it got hotter. Shots were all over the place. Again, off a bipod and rear bag. All shots were at 200yds with very light winds. No excuses to be making such...

    Re: Do Not Damage Your Fusions!!! They were on a coat hook and a little kid(not mine)ran by and knocked them off. That is why I think they are not very durable.
