Member Link Up SHWW Group
Re: SHWW Group Howdy west-siders! I'm looking for more opptys to shoot steel to 1K+. I have steel (yay) and recently submitted membership paperwork and fees to both Rattlesnake and Douglas Ridge, but they are a bit of a drive. I've been doing some google mapping to see if I can find...- TwentyFiveTwenty

which caliber would you choose for long range?
Re: which caliber would you choose for long range? +1 on 260 - easy to shoot, accurate as hell (well under 1/2 MOA) and easy to reload - which you'll need to do as there isn't much factory ammo. Here's video of hitting 6 inch reactive targets at 700 yards with a 260. <object width="425"...- TwentyFiveTwenty

260 Remington 120 vs 140
Re: 260 Remington 120 vs 140 I'm shooting Berger 140s and I love 'em. No donuts yet, but I'm still working through a big batch of Remi brass (which I don't do jacks worth of prep to, BTW). At HART last year once I got settled in I was consistently on the steel up to 1200 yards. 1500 I had...- TwentyFiveTwenty

Savage 260 Remington Build
Re: my Savage 260 Remington Took the rifle to the Thunder Ranch HART class. Worked super well, excepting the fact that my rounds seem to be pushing the hairy edge of too hot - I blew my ejector on day two and after that about every 75 shots or so I'd blow a primer. I used the mil std 300...- TwentyFiveTwenty

Savage 260 Remington Build
Re: my Savage 260 Remington After a few (very) frustrating days at the range (why do I forget that new load development can be a PITA?), I finally seem to be getting somewhere: Hey Hank - Good to hear about those mags. I may try them as well. Are you going to leave the barrel on there, or...- TwentyFiveTwenty

Savage 260 Remington Build
Re: Savage 260 Remington Build I just popped for a Vortex HD to go on this rifle (thank you Scott). Most expensive glass I've ever bought by, well, a whole lot, but I want to shoot Smallish Things, Quite Far Away. So I'm sure it's worth it! (right? RIGHT?)- TwentyFiveTwenty

Savage Build Questions
Re: Savage Build Questions You may have a large shank barrel - Savage uses those on the WSM barrels, not sure about the 7MM. Jim (Northland) or Fred (Savage) can likely tell you what you've got, and they are both great guys who can help you out. I've used both for builds.- TwentyFiveTwenty

Savage 260 Remington Build
This is my most recent build, which I'm putting together specifically for the upcoming HERT class at Thunder Ranch, and because I wanted something that could go out to 1000 yards + but that I can carry around more easily than my 300 WSM. It's nearly done: I built and installed the comb...- TwentyFiveTwenty
