    Rifle Scopes Steiner vs Vortex vs Hensoldt

    If I were to buy a top shelf scope today, it would be a Vortex Razor G2. Its a great scope, I had one for a year. And it comes from a company that will take care of any issue, should you ever have one. I got rid of mine only since I got a new job and treated myself to a Schmidt & Bender PM2...

    300wm, why all the hate?

    Yeah, I pretty much reason the same way. But since my win mag is currently being rebuilt to pretty much reseble a Mk13mod5 I am back to start from scratch with a new barrel anyway. I figured that I will work up a load with the Lapua brass and Hornady ELD-X bullets and run those as far as they...

    300wm, why all the hate?

    I found a deal on a bag of 300 win mag Lapua brass a few months ago. They are at least 15 years old according to the seller, they are brand new and he just had them in his gun vault for all that time. I have found a few sources that state that it was Norma who made the win mag brass for Lapua...

    300wm, why all the hate?

    Some of the top PRS shooters in Sweden did a visit at the Lapua factory this past winter. Word has it that they were well on the way to setting up a production line for 300 win mag and 7mm rem mag brass. Which I think is something we would very much appreciate. I will buy a few hundred as soon...

    300wm, why all the hate?

    I really like my win mag, its getting rebarreled as it is with a Jury barrel with Mk13mod5 profile. Cant wate to get it back from the smith. I have had zero issues with the belted cartridges and frankly, cant understand what the fuzz is about?

    Gunsmithing Question: 300 Win Mag Cases dimpling at the shoulder?

    I have had that happen to me as well. Both times it was with Norma brass that had 6 or 7 reloads with no annealing between. I think that AIAWs diagnosis is correct on this. The brass has become too hard to seal the chamber. This is my first magnum caliber rifle so I cant compare but I would...

    Load data 212gr eld-x 300 win mag?

    I have had good results with Norma brass, H1000 74.6gn, ELD-X 212 at 3.50", Federal magnum primers. Gives me about 845ms from a 26" barrel.

    MDT chassis systems vs AICS

    In my opinion, you would downgrade if you change. AICS is a great chassie. If you are a regular PRS competitor, then maybe the AAC could be something to consider, but only maybe.

    6.5x55 for PRS

    There are a few hundred Nordic PRS and long range shooters that would say that the 6,5x55 Swede is the ONLY way to go. If you ask me, I would say that it is a great round, I shot mine with Lapua 139 grain Scenars and a lot of people around here use the Norma GT or Diamondline bullets with great...

    Need advice...

    I kind of understand your perspective on this, it seems like it boils down to; "personal knowledge is better than others experience" and in some areas I do the same thing. But as a shooter I know that you are making this VERY hard for yourself. And it seems to me and many of the people writing...

    Need advice...

    I have yet to hear any experienced shooter stating that they graduated from anything shooting related. Most of the really good shooters I know, still find challenges in regular long range shooting (max 1500 meters) with calibers in the 6,5-338 range. Even after +20 years of shooting...

    Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

    I do have suppressors but getting a copy of the KAC suppressor made sounds crazy expensive and complicated. My barrel has the standard mk13mod5 profile, not the aardvark dick style. The suppressors I have are direct thread and one of them is pretty similar to the slimmer profile of the KAC can...

    Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

    I just sent my Remington 700 Police along with my MARS rail and other bits and pieces to the smith, where I have a custom Jury barrel with mk13mod5 barrel profile wating for me. Good times a head. Im guessing it will be a few months before its done, but thats ok. It wont be a full on clone...

    300 WIN MAG help/suggestions

    I really like Hornadys ELD-X 212 grain bullets, or Lapua Scenar L 220 grain. Both over a nice dose of H1000 powder. I use Norma brass and CCI or Federal primers with no noticable difference.

    Rifle Scopes I'm brand new to scopes. Does this scope exist?

    Mil-Dot just plain works, I like my 5.5-22x56 Nightforce NXS almost as much as I like my Schmidt PM2. If you can live with SFP then have a look at a classic, like the NXS. They are hard to fault.

    Remington 700 Police missing markings

    As others have allready stated, Remington rifles usually have a LONG freebore, so its all as it usually is. My rifle also has that, even at a 3.502" COL, I am still not tuching the lands. But it shoots great, so it is what it is. A few hundred rounds more and I am rebarreling and rebuilding it...

    PRS Talk How much gear should be allowed?

    Roterjager is on to something. About two years ago I was at a PRS match with no other than Mr.Spuhr as a competition director and RO on some stages. The match had a simple and effective ground rule, you were allowed to have as much gear as you wanted, say 8 bipods, 15 sacks, bags and what not...
