    .300 Win Mag or ??? for a Savage LA Build

    Re: .300 Win Mag or ??? for a Savage LA Build It is a magnum action, I don't <span style="text-decoration: underline">need</span> a magnum but the action was free and a good winter project is always fun! So it will be a useful addition to the family, I hope! .260 Rem is the best...

    .300 Win Mag or ??? for a Savage LA Build

    Re: .300 Win Mag or ??? for a Savage LA Build That is an interesting article, plus it wouldn't be just another .300 WM . Got any other cartridge suggestions, it will be used for the range and hunting. Someone had suggested 6.5-284, but I am not sure about that one. I like it but am not...

    .300 Win Mag or ??? for a Savage LA Build

    I have searched and searched and still decided to ask one more question! I just received a freebie Savage LA no barrel (everything looks good on it) so here's the question: I have two Savage .260 Rem(s)that will do everything I will probably want for quite a while. (still new to the LR game)...

    Two Berger 6.5 130 VLD's?

    If this has been explained I missed it while searching (trying not to ask questions that have already been answered). Berger has two 130 VLD's in 6.5 listed on their site one is a Match Hunting VLD and one is a Match Target VLD, except for the name and Berger part # what is the difference in...

    Fieldcraft EMP: Worth worrying about?

    Re: EMP: Worth worrying about? Read Bill Forstchen's One Second After it will give a little more insight to the everyday things you might not think about. (Newt Gingrich wrote the forward to it) It's a post-apocalyptic (post EMP) book but not far-fetched at all like most books along that...

    .260 barrel length and heavy 6.5's

    Re: .260 barrel length and heavy 6.5's My main goal is to have something a little handier than my other .260 which is 27"+ with the brake on. I am not up to the 1k mark yet because I am trying to be consistent at shorter distances then work my way up. But if I can have a rig that is handy...

    .260 barrel length and heavy 6.5's

    Re: .260 barrel length and heavy 6.5's Sorry for the delayed response, The reason I asked was because I have always been intrigued by the shorty rifles. This rifle is a former paper puncher and the perfect candidate for some customization. I think what I am going to do is rebarrel with an...

    .260 barrel length and heavy 6.5's

    Guys, Santa brought a used .260 this year and I am thinking of cutting the barrel down from 26" to something shorter (I have another 26" gun) anybody had any luck with a 1:8 twist in shorter barrel lengths? (Shorter meaning less than 22") Is less than 22" just too short for 139 + gr 6.5's...
