    Rifle Cost

    True! But based upon a quote I received in my first post I can believe the prices listed. ;)

    Rifle Cost

    I can understand that. But I bought a rifle on this forum a few months ago. All parts were supplied to the builder. It's a magnum tack driver and a pleasure to shoot. I paid for essentially the parts. There are similar rifles for sale now that are listed at near double what I paid. What...

    Trying to stay away from company names, but his builder is in Oklahoma.

    Rifle Cost

    I know for a fact that my BILs bulider supports his work 100%. From what I know of the other builder, they do as well.

    Relying on them to supply the parts.

    Rifle Cost

    Looking in the classifieds and seeing the "Paid this amount" and "selling for this" makes me wonder.... How much is too much for a precision rifle? Are prices inflated? Are guys/gals paying too much? I went to well known builder for a quote; spec'd out my build and got a price of around...

    22 Creedmoor shooters - any regrets?

    I'm waiting on mine from him. He's working up loads for the 90gr Berger for me.

    224 Valkyrie to 2112 Yards

    I may not have seen it, but what about the 22 Nosler at distance? I know a about a year ago, the 22N seemed to surpass the 224V.

    Finally put together a 300 Norma, almost time to shoot!

    I remember shooting one at SHOT, unbraked, and it felt more like my old RPR 6.5. My custom I run now has a WTO brake on it and it's like a stiff .223. I run 84.5g of H1000 with 225ELDM at ~3025fps. I also have 1-10" twist. Next barrel will be 1-9".

    300 Win Mag bullet choice for 1000-2000 meter long range

    What about Flatline 180s?

    Rifle Scopes Looking for scope recommendations for ELR rig (300 norma mag)

    I don't understand the fuss over the 525 in general. I believe the 624 is cheaper and still fantastic glass and reticles.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for scope recommendations for ELR rig (300 norma mag)

    Kahles. I use the 624 with AMR on a 40moa rail for my 300NM. Speaking to a ELR shooter and instructor he recommended an Ivey mount.

    Nice piece. I love my 300 NM. Did I miss where you said which twist rate you went with?

    Range Report 225 ELD-M vs 230 Hybrid Target

    Wanted to bring this back up. Anyone have data past 2200 yards on the 300nm load? Looking at an ELR class and was told that 1-10 twist (which 8 have) was too slow and I needed 1-9.

    Almost there....

    Got a call from one of my 'smiths today. Finally got my Manners stock in but the action was still MIA. Supposed to a branded Stiller but they're 60 days behind and now he says it would be end of December before it delivered for the build. Had 4 options: Impact Fusion Bighorn Surgeon Opted...

    Saw that. I'm keeping an eye on your thread. Looking forward to it.

    Kelby Actions

    Thanks for the feedback. I met the Kelblys at SHOT and was impressed with them but was curious.

    Kelby Actions

    Got to thinking.... You don't see Kelby mentioned too much for new builds on this forum or elsewhere unless it is a Panda for BR. Why is that? I don't have any experience with them. The few builders I know use Stiller or Defiant. Thoughts?
