    Help choosing Large 30 cal.

    Re: Help choosing Large 30 cal. 300 WM for reasons in previous post ... or look to the 7mm family of magnums. The ballistics will be better for paper punching without going really big ... as in 338's. Compromise is down range impact. Do you reload? The big calibers are expensive to shoot...

    My one of a kind long range rig.

    Re: My one of a kind long range rig. I was psyched with your rifle and enthusiasm right up until you turned your rifle into a purse. Enjoy! Great project.

    Gunsmithing What is the longest time a gunsmith took?

    Re: What is the longest time a gunsmith took? Kimberyote - I'm guessing the main reason you haven't fired your smith yet is because if you do, the clock will start again with someone else. Ask the hide the question: "Which excellent gunsmith also a quick turn around time?" If you get a...

    A serious caliber choice question!!....

    Re: A serious caliber choice question!!.... Precision is only one variable in the equation. Cost? Weight of ammo? Terminal ballistics? Barrel life? Recoil? How finicky is it? Versatility? Does it have to perform well short of 600 m? Longer than 2000m? A 308 shooting 175 SMK can...

    Gunsmithing Open ended request - most accurate 1000yd rifle.

    Re: Blank check build - most accurate 1000yd rifle. High MV, big BC overcomes many mistakes in reading wind at long distance. The shooter needs some skills (shooting, reading wind) before the virtues of a hyperaccurate rifle will be seen. But, a high BC and MV pay dividends regardless of...

    What ammo to buy for .308 Remington 700 5R

    Re: What ammo to buy for .308 Remington 700 5R I find 168 gr FGMM on the shelves locally all the time, but never the 175s. Don't know why. I hand load, so it doesn't matter to me. However, if you are trying to learn your rifle and dope, you'll want one type/brand of ammo and stick with it...

    Building a do it all rifle.

    Re: Building a do it all rifle. That is a bad ass rifle. You know what you want - go build it. ALL of the suggested calibers would fit the bill. It would be nirvana to shoot the barrel out of a custom build like that in the photo. IMHO, without going to a real barrel burner, pick...

    Building a do it all rifle.

    Re: Building a do it all rifle. You have plenty of options for the caliber (7 RM, 300 wm, 30-06, 7-08, etc.) of rifle that will satisfy target and hunting. IMHO you should spend more time thinking about stock, barrel contour, and optics. Frankly, I would start with the stock. (With your...

    Savage Accutrigger worth anything used?

    Re: Savage Accutrigger worth anything used? I don't recall every seeing one for sale, but I haven't looked. I doubt you would get much for it. But if you've decided to swap triggers regardless, you have nothing to lose.

    Rifle Scopes March F Scopes

    Re: March F Scopes I can't offer the direct comparison between the two scopes you mention. However, I can say that I am satisfied with my March 3-24 x 42 mm. Turrets are 10 mil per rotation (convenient), solid click, and wide grip. Glass is crystal clear. Image IS darker at 24 than at...

    Gunsmithing Manners/McMillan Durability...?

    Re: Manners/McMillan Durability...? The foam core started to break apart for me in a Manners stock inletted for a SA (.308) Savage with pillars. This happened right at the rear pillar. This was after perhaps 100 rounds. I can understand how this might happen with a Savage action which has...
