    New POF .308 Issues Advice Needed

    Re: New POF .308 Issues Advice Needed Spoke to Rob at POF today, I asked about the crystals and some general questions. He said that this is a problem that they used to run into as a result of the nitriding process, they solved it now by adding some sort of steam bath on all barrels...

    7mm SAUM with 180 VLD on short action??

    Re: 7mm SAUM with 180 VLD on short action?? how is the accuracy with the N-570? I'm building a 7/300 WSM w/ a 27" rock and I haven't really heard about anyone using this combo for one of these stubby 7 mags. 3100'ish is where I'd want to be, could care less about barrel life any info would help.

    Mega Ma-Ten 260 1k test drive

    Re: Mega Ma-Ten 260 1k test drive looks like the driver's on his A game to get those groups @ 1k. sweet rig, never shot a .260 in a gas gun, any big differences besides ballistics that you've noticed from a .308? I got a JD lower and upper in 308 and this looks like a good way to blow some...

    .416, .338, .50 Cal...Inexpensive Option to shoot?

    Re: .416, .338, .50 Cal...Inexpensive Option to shoot? you're kinda forgetting about some things, the gun and scope. Besides that, the absolute cheapest option that I would go with would be a 7mm mag with the 180 bergers. You get those going @ 2900+ you're getting into the back end of .338...

    1000 yard shot at golf ball with 338LM

    Re: 1000 yard shot at golf ball with 338LM Good shootin for sure, that ammo needs a round of applause as well. As for the golf balls we would beat the crap out of em with 308's at 100-200 and when we would go pull em there was just a bunch of little carbon ringed pinholes. That's also the...

    Re: Kestral 4500NV with Horus ATRAG & Blue Tooth - Int This might be a loaded request but can you could find out any way to check their claim of crosswind accounting. I'm assuming it's a manual entry by the user for speed and requiring the range of the crosswind as well but I have never...
