    338 dilemma

    When I first got mine I bought 3 boxes of factory Hornady to start with. Nope, not cheap. Luckily I reload and right now I'm probably on my 8th reloading of that brass. I'm not loading hot so the brass is holding up well. No loose primer pockets and I've trimmed it once so far. So the cost is...

    338 dilemma

    Hell, I'm inherently inaccurate. It's still fun shooting!

    338 dilemma

    OP wants a .338 I say go for it. 6.5/.308 is certainly more cost effective and easier to shoot. But I'm having the time of my life shooting my .338! A big dog was always on my bucket list but the older I get the more recoil sensitive I get too. The RPR came along and I can manage it. But, the...

    338 dilemma

    True, the 6.5 will shoot 1000+ easily. A lot more comfortably. A lot cheaper. But damn it's fun! Kind of expensive on a retired income, but I have to admit I haven't shot any of my other rifles since I got my .338 in May. I can shoot 800 all day at my range, kinda boring, and have stretched it...

    338 dilemma

    I've owned/own Savages (so no prejudice there) and I've got the RPR in both 6.5CM and .338LM. Absolutely love the RPR's. Especially the .338 big dog! I'm having a ball shooting it and very happy I went with it. I bought the 6.5 first and after shooting mine a friend bought one in .338. The...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 380 for wife to carry.

    Talk about worst trigger ever...I have a S&W 442. Crimson Trace grips. Horrible trigger, the first time my adult daughter shot it I didn't think she was going to get the trigger pulled! No, nothing wrong with it, it's just that the hammerless DAO has a helluva pull if you aren't used to it. If...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I'll stick with and recommend those cheap, POS RPR's anytime! Both of mine will shoot a lot better than my old, retired ass can do. I'm having a ball...and NOT spending 12 grand in the process on a custom rifle. Spend 15% of that 12 grand on an RPR and you can afford to buy a LOT of ammo and...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 380 for wife to carry.

    I've got the Glock 42. I'm probably not the biggest proponent of .380's, but I doubt this thing will ever get sold. Of course I use the extended grip mags too. That said, as far as size, and if she would want to step up to a 9mm, I've 2 Sig 365's (and an XL too). And there really isn't a lot of...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I've got a Gen II 6.5, love it. I just went to pull my bolt and when I folded the stock over, a couple of pieces flew! Luckily the plug had just come loose and it and the allen wrench flipped out. Had me worried for a second!. I've also got one in a 338LM. I'm not real big and the thing kind of...

    Rifle Scopes Burris xtr ii dissapointment... What now?

    I've got the 3-15 and the 5-25, just checked them and neither one worked. New batteries fixed them right up. Not surprised they were dead, I never use it! But if it isn't as simple as a battery, kind of hard to fault their CS. I just "broke" a Burris 4.5-14 by dropping my calling rifle on the...

    Suppressors QuietBore 22LR Titanium Suppressor Build Review -***Approved Form 1 Required***

    I believe you said before that these have nothing to do with QB? So do you have an O.D. measurement on the cups/spacers so we can match fit to another manufacturer's tube if we want to with Ti? By the way, your work and information is much appreciated!

    Suppressors Form 1

    Has anyone tried one of the kits on a .338? I'd like to try one on my RPR. Of course it's threaded 3/4x24 and nobody lists a cap that size so I'd have to see if they'd do it special order (I suppose they would?). But If DM doesn't talk to you it's kind of hard to check on that with them. Also...

    6.5 Creedmoor Hornady 153 gr A-Tip

    I might have to try some of these. Live just down the road from Hornady Manf. and stop in there frequently to check their reject offerings. They've got a cabinet with about a dozen large drawers in it where they keep boxes of rejects. I've shot a LOT of reject bullets over the years and feel...

    Suppressors Silencer Central Rant.........

    I sent a rifle to them to be threaded first of the year. Sent it back with one of their gunshow people set up at our local gunshow. Couple weeks later got an email that it was done. That was it, nothing else. Figured I'd get another email in a day or two telling me that it had shipped. Nope...

    Suppressors Form 1 big bore kits?

    Are there any form 1 kits that are stout enough for a 338 LM? I see people building kits and running up to 300 WM, but never larger. Not worried about putting my eye out, just blowing my face off.

    Suppressors Omega 300, 300 PRC rated?

    So I assume "He" filled out the app and did the fingerprints, etc., and you just gifted him the money, LOL. I kinda did a double take when I read it. OK, wasn't sure the way it was posted.

    Rifle Scopes Hunting/Target Dual Purpose Scope <$1000

    Possibly a SFP rather than FFP would be better. If you're shooting in the short distances and timber that you mentioned, you're going to need the lower powers and when you turn the power down it's going to be a bitch to see the reticle at times in timber. Depending on the reticle AND if it's...
