    25 Creedmoor

    Love the look of those rounds, and the bc on those bullets. Best of luck on the hunt. I look forward to hearing about the terminal performance. ;)

    Winchester M70

    I’m curious, what did it end up weighing as pictured?

    Winchester M70

    That’s a beauty. Makes me want to do something similar with the .270 I have in the safe! Thanks for documenting the build. It’s been very entertaining and informative to watch.

    Hunting & Fishing I've got bitch feet and need new boots

    Two things have helped me a ton, first is moisture management via a combination of antiperspirant and vapor barriers. I wear anitpersperant, a thin liner sock, then believe it or not simple plastic bags, (think checkout thin ones,) then Wigwam or the like thick squishy hiking socks. Companies...

    Surgeon Remedy 338 Lapua for $3000 on Armslist...Too good to be true?

    I've started asking folks that have deals I am interested in to take a photo of the rifle with their drives license next to it. If they are not comfortable sending me a photo to prove who they are, I don't feel inclined to send them large amounts of money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gunsmithing Rem Mag action to standard caliber?

    Apart from the bolt face, (easily solved with a call to PTG,) is there a difference in Remington 700 actions that would prevent good function with a standard cartridge, say a .270? I hav an unused magnum reciever and would like to build a new hunting rifle. I have heard that some internal feed...

    Tikka T3 CTR?

    Not surprising. Considering you can re barrel a T3 and out it in a XRay for not much more I'm not that put out. Would have been a nice option though. I like my older CTR in .223 a lot.

    Tikka T3 CTR?

    Would love a .260. Perfect match to my Scout in .223.

    tikka t3 .223 8 twist 75 amax

    I followed directions on the Hide here to mod the mag. Gained another .3" over stock. Seats darn near anything long enough in my gun. The mod is a bit tedious, but was a great afternoon project and functioned well once tweaked properly. However, if I hadn't planned on buying a KRG I would...

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Looking forward to both the cheek piece and the Poly forend. The alloy is a bit chilly in MN winter, and I do not utilize most of the mounting points now.

    New X-Ray Chassis from KRG-now shipping!

    That looks great. Lighter weight and polymer forend with similar ergonomics would pair nicely with a T3 Lite to match my Scout in a Whiskey!

    My new 1/2 mile coyote whacker

    Hornady 75gr HPBT's seem to be a pretty good alternative. Not as good as the above, but pretty inexpensive and available from several sites. That's my plan for my Tikka. Not perfect, but should get me shooting well and quickly. At 600 and under they run similar according to JBM, and that's the...

    Bought myself a new "trainer" today... Anschutz 1827 (54 action repeater!)

    Saw that one for sale. Heck of a rifle. Looking forward to a range report.

    Untwisted Vortex barrel

    Would love to see a modern build with a straight octagonal barrel in 26" or so. I've always been a sucker for octagonal barrels for no good reason!

    Gunsmithing Sneak Peak at LongRifles Inc LH Tikka T3 Build "more pics"

    Thanks for documenting another great build! The entertainment value of these is great, I love seeing quality rifles come together. Pleased to hear that you are looking into more Tikka services. I'm nearly finished with my first Tikka, and I know it won't be the last.

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I had the same question. Bought a .264 Win years ago I should not have. Would love to use the action on something like this.

    Temp closing of Triad Tactical 5-25-2013

    Recieved my order and I couldn't couldn't be happier with the products. Thanks for great service and quality kit! Hope the recovery goes well for you.

    Anschutz MPR inbound.

    Out of the box there is a huge difference against my CZ Varmint. For me it's worth it. I like both, and will be keeping both. I'm finding I prefer shooting the MPR. It just feels better all around, especially the trigger.

    Father's Day 513T....

    That's about what I've heard. I looked at one when I purchased my 75t. That particular trigger was abysmal. I went with the 75t based on that and other factors. Nice to know they can be improved on. They sure are handsome rifles.
