    X-caliber barrel sale and info......

    I've got an X-Cal 1:8 twist 22-250AI on my Bighorn TL3. I have nothing but great things to say about it! Currently enjoying the 88 gr ELDM and RL-23, but it seems to shoot most projectiles well. Outstanding performance, especially for the price. This was my first time taking it out past the 200...

    6mm creedmoor short barrel

    I'm sending a 18" Bartlein carbon to Deep South Tactical to spin up a 6 CM prefit for my Zeus. Should be an awesome combo.

    Coyote Rifle Builds

    Here’s mine: - Bighorn TL3 - Xcaliber 1:8 22-250 AI @ 22” - Manners PRS-2 w/mini chassis - Triggertech Special flat blade Slings the 88 gr ELDM to 3150 over 40.3 gr of RL-23. Shot this coyote a few weeks back at 600. It’s a great combo!

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Great looking rifles in this thread - I'm acquiring parts at the moment for my own shorty 6 Creed. Longest wait will be the Manners CS2 stock w/ Mini-chassis, but so far I've got the following sitting in my safe: - Terminus Zeus with QC - Bartlein Carbon #13 19" blank (finish length of 18") -...

    Seekins havak bravo barrel replacement

    Unless wanting a different contour or barrel length, I’d go with the Rock Creek from Seekins. My factory Havak barrel shoots awesome and I’d have no problem having them replace with another.

    Tikka vs. Origin

    Huge Tikka fan as well- I’ve got a 20” .223 CTR that hammers with 40-75 gr projectiles. It’s one of my favorite rifles.

    Terminus Actions

    This thread has been awesome. After lots of back and forth between a Zeus and Impact 737, I'm now impatiently waiting for my first Terminus Zeus QC to arrive in a couple days. I have an 18" bartlein 6mm blank ready to have chambered in 6CM. Going to make a great coyote rig!

    22-250 ai

    Thanks! I'm using 40.3 grains of RL-23 with a fed 210 primer. Pretty sure I'm .020" off the lands, but don't have my exact measurements handy. I formed brass with a mix of factory PPU 22-250 ammo and PPU brass loaded with RL-15. Basically loaded near max 22-250 loads and they formed great!

    22-250 ai

    Took my 22-250 AI out for a spin in Wyoming this weekend. It's shooting very well with the 88 gr ELDM over RL-23. Right at 3150 FPS. ES of 25 with SD of 9. It'd be nice to get the ES down a little, but for smacking steel, prairie dogs, and predators, this will work! ETA: Loading 40.3 grains of...

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    Took my TL3 chambered in 22-250 AI out for a spin in WY this weekend - it's shooting very well with the 88 gr ELDMs and RL-23. Smoked a coyote at 600 yards Friday evening and then shot my buck at 315 yards the next morning. The TL3 just continues to impress! Bighorn TL3 X-Caliber 22" 22-250AI...

    88 eldm reliability

    I’m at 3150 out of a 22” 1:8 5r 22-250 AI. They do just fine for me at that speed. Haven’t tried pushing them any harder.

    Savage small shank prefits- cheaper......

    I'd send an email or give them a call to see if they could do a prefit with a 1:7.5 (since they offer it as a blank).

    22 Creedmoor HELP

    I’m a fan of the 88 ELDMs, but the 77 TMK will give you a bit more speed.

    Short Barrel, Short Range Elk Rifle

    I’d go 7 SAUM and be done with it. We kill several elk per year in WY (even with archery equipment) and the 7 SAUM will be plenty. Put a 168-180 gr projectile through the lungs and it’s game over.

    Coyote rifle build.

    Coyote rifle build.

    22 Creedmoor or a 6mm Creedmoor. Both will do the job extremely well at the distances you plan to shoot.
