    Best all round .308 barrel length?

    I was using a 20" with a 1-12 twist but couldn't get the velocity and range I wanted, so I had it rebarreled with a Bartlein 24" 1-11.25 I get better velocity and its easier to hit those 1K targets.

    want to duplicate m118lr load.

    I'm getting 2650 FPS with the M118LR clone. Also getting consistent hits at 1K with a 24" Rem 700/Bartlein 1-11.25 barrel. Still not happy I think the rifle it capable of doing better, just got to find the right load for her.

    .300 Win. Mag

    It shoots flatter and you'll get out further than a 308. Its also cheaper to shoot that a 338 lapua and will get you close to the same performance with a 220 gr bullet, if loaded right. There just fun.

    Rifle Scopes What power scope for 338 to 1 mile?

    I have a Mark 4 ERT 6.5x20 with the H58 and love it. I have no place to shoot 1 mile but its works good to 1200 yards so i'll bet the 8.5 x 25 work great. Are you active Military or LEO? if so Leupold will offer some awesome discounts.

    recommendation for a 338 lapua

    Might think about 300 wim mag, a lot less money too shoot.

    6.5 creedmoor vs .308

    308, because when the poop hits the fan you can still get ammo.

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 Bolt Face Replacement

    It happened to me too, Winchester primers were blowing out and pitted the bolt face, I have to pull down about 500 round of stuff I had loaded this last winter and reprime. I sent an email to Winchester but never got a reply, bet I never will.
