    Different types of hunting rifle setups? Tell me about yours!

    It's a unmodified 20 inch tikka t3x 6.5 Creedmoor barrelled action dropped into a southfort labs carbon stock. It's one of the most accurate rifles I've ever owned and it's now taken quite a lot of game here in Australia. It weighs 7.4lb as pictured & pushes 147gr Eldm's at 2650fps

    I have four of the timney 2 stage - it's an outstanding trigger and better than the Tikka 2-stage's I've tried

    6.5x47 Lapua

    I'm also interested in the charge weight Padom is running. 38.7gr AR2208 (Varget) is my load with 130 JLK's = 2840fps from a 22' barrel. Barrel is throated for 147gr ELD's so I'm loading very long/have heaps of case capacity

    Does custom action make this much difference?

    I have a Surgeon action so I'm well positioned to say conclusively that Tikka's suck ;)

    Manners prs1 on a hunting rifle?

    The comp stocks are all too heavy for any rifle that's going to be toted long ways up steep stuff, but for day hunts or situations that don't require much mobility, they're awesome. ' This is a touch under 14lb as pictured. I could run a carbon barrel or chop the 26' down to 20 to knock some...

    There is absolutely nothing practical about this rifle but man is it a dream to shoot - 6BR

    Rebarrel and true my existing Howa 1500 or start a new build?

    It's a McMillan A3 - It has the highest comb of any of their stocks which is great if you don't want the weight of an adjustable cheek-piece. The contour is the IBI Medium Hunter Profile and the total weight is 9.25lb as pictured. If this was going to be for higher volume shooting I'd opt for a...

    Not a prefit

    Rebarrel and true my existing Howa 1500 or start a new build?

    Howas are underrated actions. I put a cheap ibi barrel on this one and it's a consistent .5moa rifle.

    Can you guess what this is? Throws 286gr pills at 2540fps ;) Quite impressed with the Bushnell 1-6.5x24 SMRS deal from EuroOptics.

    Looking for some caliber ideas.

    A 6.5-284 with 156gr Berger EOL's going 2900 - 3000fps is right with a 7Rem mag and 162gr class of bullet. The 6.5 actually beats it in the wind and requires less powder and recoil to do so. The energy difference is negligible.
