    What types of groups are good shooters getting with .308 winchester at 100 yards?

    I am sorry, but this made me laugh pretty hard. Choked on my coffee. I'll second everything Morgan said. 3 rounds at 100 to confirm and the rest to practice beyond that distance. I will stick to my .22lr for shooting groups. "I'll be fine, don't worry" Too funny!

    Tubb Adaptive Target Rifle

    You never listed anything in your post that indicates your rifle can do everything the new DT rifle can. As you said, "Apples to Apples" Anyone can throw a list of components together with some ballpark prices next to it. However, that is not what David did with this rifle and it seems you have...

    Getting into ELR

    https://thunderbeastarms.com/products/ultra-7 Based off this and your criteria your biggest option is the 300 RUM which is a very close second to the 300 Norma. Just make sure you do a build around CIP length mags or plan on single feeding. After reading all these replies it seems clear you had...

    Getting into ELR

    I think you should begin by calling your suppressor manufacture and finding out exactly what your .30 cal suppressor is rated for. If only 300wm then that will limit your options greatly. If not you could look at the 300 Norma (not standard mag bolt face) or you could look into something like...

    Help Finding A Specific Custom Action

    Just as the title says, I saw an action and believe the name of it started with a T. This action look pretty nice with a unique fluted bolt with the flutes getting tighter as they progressed and the ejection port was slightly skewed to kind of go along with the fluting.

    Rifle Scopes Anyone have a atacr 7-35 Tremor 3?

    I have been using a 5-25 T3 for going on 18 months now and can tell you I see no reason to upgrade to the 35x scope with this reticle unless for stages where you need lots of magnification and will be dialing your dope. The Tremor 3 reticle is best used on lower mag IMO and I usually run mine...

    Tubb Adaptive Target Rifle

    I am not sure if you can pre order one or not, and pretty sure they are not yet available. However, David would be the one to ask on that. I can get you in touch with my friend who knows quite a bit about the new rifle coming out. Though I can tell you he is very biased and about the same as...

    Tubb Adaptive Target Rifle

    Have a friend that has been playing with David's rifle over the years and really likes it. Once he gets his I will be looking forward to put rounds through it. The TUB 2000 was a nice rifle, this one seems much better. Best advice would be to call David and talk to him if he doesn't comment here.

    Loading belted magnums

    Forming a false shoulder helps to eliminate brass growth in the "Web" area. It does this by ensuring a tight fit on the case between the neck of the chamber and your bolt face. This tight lockup helps the brass grow at the shoulder neck area and should prevent premature case head separation...

    What 7mm for a mile

    With all of you 7mm shooters here, has anyone had a chance to shoot the 180 ELD-M to distance yet? I am curious about the listed BC and your real world experiences?

    Loading belted magnums

    Form a false shoulder on virgin brass and as you have found don't bump the shoulders further than required.

    Traininer Stocks?

    Like posted above, you would be best served with something similar to your primary setup if you are trying to mimic that.

    My CZ 455 Progress *Updated with working pics*

    If the Fedderson barrel works for you then I am glad to hear it! Having said that I always take what I read and hear with a grain of salt, I hope to be satisfied with this barrel. I just need a bit more testing at longer ranges with better ammo to be sure. Also I have been torn between...

    My CZ 455 Progress *Updated with working pics*

    I hope to have good weather this weekend to test some Lapua Center X at 100 yards. If I can keep the rifle consistently under 1" vertical I will be happy. If not I may try a few more ammo types or a custom cut benchmark barrel.

    Range time with my Sako TRG

    Hope you find a place to shoot. I find private land to be much safer than public ranges. Depending on how serious you are and the prices in your area you could always lease a property.

    Magnetospeed Adapter

    I believe there has been one for about a year or so now. I know of several others that have been tested and are currently still being perfected. One of which would work for barrels suppressed and unsuppressed SBR - 40+ in total barrel length. Like I said though, several companies have had...

    My CZ 455 Progress *Updated with working pics*

    Sorry guys, working on it now. Photobucket isn't letting me download the 10 years worth of pictures I have on it either... Kinda pissed about that situation.
