    Re: .260 rem vs 6.5 x 47 Lapua what do you have? I'm going with the 47 for my build. The brass is more exspensive but it is suppose to be superior and last much longer.

    If you were building a match rifle ......?

    Re: If you were building a match rifle ......? My understanding about F class is there are Tactical and Open divisions. Tactical means .308 and competetive open class shooters use flat shooting rounds like 6.5x.284 and 7mm magnums of various sorts(short magnums, ultra magnums etc.).

    New here

    Re: New here You didn't mention what caliber you are interested in. If you don't already know, the .308 was mentioned because there is a large selection of quality ammo to choose from, thus a very popular round.

    Range Report .308....which rds should I use?

    Re: .308....which rds should I use? Not sure if you are reloading. If not, Federal Gold Metal Match, Southwest and Blackhills are the most common recommendations in that order. If reloading, it's heavy(175-208) vs. the lights(155's). Both shoot well. The sky is the limit when it comes to...
