    20" Barreled AX338?

    Gentlemen, I have noted a personal preference for shorter rifles rather than their longer and more common brethren through the years. That said I have no experience with 20" barreled .338 Lapua Magnums and wonder if this is not taking a good thing too far? Does anyone have any experience...

    Re: New NF "Beast" scope rumors.... let's hear them fwiw, We shall see. Literally and figuratively... I have said for a number of years that, imho, Schmidt Bender PMIIs offered the best scope for the money. A proven scope. That said I have also said that may not be accurate in 5...

    Rifle Scopes any new S&B 3-20 dates?

    Re: any new S&B 3-20 dates? Jeff, Ordered P4f and Klein Mil/Mils when announced. It took them forever to confirm from Germany. They've been confirmed for awhile and November was listed as ETA. That said 10 years with Schmidt has led me not to bet the farm on delivery dates. Will check...

    Re: .308 Rifle Opinions - LMT vs. Larue fwiw, It is too early to make any categorical statements, however, I am very happy with my 16.1" Larue OBR. Dunno what AAC Can it will ultimately wear, however, my only concern is just how filthy it is going to get with the extra back pressure...

    .308 788?

    Re: .308 788? fwiw, If memory serves they have the lugs in the rear and are known to be accurate. The school however told us the bolt was prone to bending... It is not a 700. Keep shopping if that is what you want. High round count? go with a 700...imho Regards, Matt Garrett 757-581-6270

    300 win mag ??

    Re: 300 win mag ?? fwiw, I agree with Doc. Your own reamer, and an A191 reamer at that, would not be a bad direction to go into... Maybe I've lead a sheltered life, however, I honestly LOVE the .300 WM with a rifle that has a little weight to it... It's rather funny when most of the...
