    Re: Would these rifles make it for FTR/F-class? In Open class you would compete against the bench rest type rifles on bench rests, not bipods as in TR class. TR class is limited to .223 and .308 target rifles. In strict definition they have to be repeaters, not single shots. Not all clubs...

    6.5x50 jap build

    How would you build a .300 H&H?

    Re: How would you build a .300 H&H? I have one, a hunting rifle. I would not build a target rifle in that caliber. As mentioned above brass does not last, it is not 'hard to find', but it is not abundant and the choices are limited. If you are stock on that cartridge, by a factory rifle...

    Re: Remington Bronze Point bullets They are 1950's technology, not used much anymore. They reportedly open up quickly. Look at some hunting books by O'Conner and other big game hunters written in the 1960's, that is where you'll find them described. Good luck Jerry
