    Tikka, Howa, Remington, Savage?

    If you want the best out of the box long-range precision rifle in .300 Win Mag, just buy a Remington 700 5R in .300 Win Mag. Excellent stock and 5R barrel (for a factory rifle) and they run around $1,200. When you can afford to upgrade, send your rifle off to have the action trued and bedded...

    Which big bore for AR?

    I've seen an AR-10 built in 338 RCM. It was a hell of a rifle, combining an excellent cartridge with an excellent platform. But finding an AR-10 expert (not an AR-15 expert) to build one is next to impossible.

    Complete Chassis Reference Guide!pics,prices,links

    Has anyone actually handled one of these yet? I'm interested to see what sort of machining they have done for the action inlet. Is it the flat surfaces of a typical "V" block? Or is it rounded to better mate with the curved surfaces of the action?

    1903-A4 Rat Rifle

    I love that idea! Didn't someone on here have a K98 re-chambered in 6mm Remington?

    1903-A4 Rat Rifle

    for what it's worth, (according to QuickLoad) 64 (not 74) grains of reloader 22 with a 168 grain SMK, looks like a perfect load giving you the speeds you quoted before.

    1903-A4 Rat Rifle

    That is a death load there. "Guaranteed" to blow up in your face. Well over 100,000 psi chamber pressure. I think maybe a typo?

    Building a spec rifle, what caliber would you want?

    Add .243 Winchester, 6XC and 7mm-08 and they will all be great calibers to choose from.

    what calibres are good for short barrels

    A general rule of thumb is the less the bottle neck, and the shorter the brass overall, the better the cartridge does in short barrels. Example is a .45 ACP vs .223 WSSM. The .45 shoots fine out of a three or four inch barrel, the WSSM cartridges shoot best out of long, 24 inch barrels. .45...

    20" barrel deer, blk bear, elk < 700 yard chambering?

    I totally forgot about the .376 Steyr. No neck sizing required. Just load and shoot.

    20" barrel deer, blk bear, elk < 700 yard chambering?

    Jim, Because I like re-inventing the wheel, I'd go with a short magnum in a long action. In particular, I'd take the tried and true .350 Remington Magnum and neck it up to .375 caliber (.375-.350 Remington Magnum). This has been done for decades and is known for being a potent hunting...

    .338 Snipe-Tac Build

    Correct. Not to mention how ludicrous the .338 SnipeTac is for 99.99999% of all the shooting ever done.
