    Boots for competition?

    See that is my problem, my local supply is crap. Along with every "high quality" brand is ridiculously priced. I will definitely try out some lowas before making my final decision.

    Matching turrets and reticle just means if you have a mildot reticle make sure you have mil value turrets. And vise versa with MOA. And with a 20" barrel you could stay under 11.5-12lbs. Which is really light in my opinion.

    Did you go with the mid or high zephyrs?

    Boots for competition?

    So you are saying that lowas run .5 size small? Or you usually wear 11s?

    Boots for competition?

    That's for the advice! So I wear an 11 in every other boot I've ever owned, would I still need to go try some on when the link that another posted they had the asolo hikers at $103 with free shipping?

    Barrel length for my Remington 700 .308

    Just off the top of my head.... Longer supersonic range Less time of flight(so less external factor effect on bullets) Meaning less effect by the wind Flatter shooting so more likely to hit if slightly off on range estimation on UKD target stages More time for powder to fully burn behind the...

    Barrel length for my Remington 700 .308

    If you plan on shooting 175smks 20" is perfectly fine to right at 1000 especially if you reload. If you want to scream 155gr lapua senars and send the .308 to a much higher level ballistically then 24-26" is a distinct advantage. Most do prefer the shorter barreled .308s for the portability and...

    Looking at a Remington

    Here is my current rig built on a remington 700 sps varmint action. And here is a 5 shot group with one cold clean bore shot(that is the one not in the group). There are 5 shots all touching and I have had great success with 168 SMKs, 175smks, but my best groups came with the 155gr lapua...

    Boots for competition?

    I am aspiring to compete in the extreme tough man division of mammoth next year and wondering about what boots everyone used in the comp last year? I've camped and hiked A LOT in my life in extreme colds but never hiked as far and at such a quick pase that the challenge will require me to, so I...

    Any news on AI 223 mags?

    I use my accurate mags 99% of the time with my Rock Solid chassis and have yet to have any problems with feeding or anything for that matter.

    Need help with 178gr A-Max load

    Thanks everyone! I am getting 2-4 pounds of imr 4064 for my amaxes! So please feel free to post up those loads. Anyone use 4064 behind the 175gr matchkings? I am aware that 4064 is the powder used in FGMM. But what charge do you use in winchester and lapua brass?

    Need help with 178gr A-Max load

    I saw you post in another thread about how a .308 bullet wouldn't be stabilized at 100 yards or something along those lines. Could you explain the reasoning behind that?

    Hornaday .223 brass

    Blasphemy! It's not lapua brass? Then it's not good enough. Lol I'm glad your brass turned out good for you. I myself had a bad experience with hornady .223 brass weights being everywhere, but I'm glad you found a good batch!

    Need help with 178gr A-Max load

    Interesting. And to the below poster. Yes I've heard that the amax and varget is an amazing load but I'm down to my last 3 pounds and who the hell knows when my 8lbs back order will come in. So I am trying desperately to conserve lol.

    Need help with 178gr A-Max load

    Can I ask why it would work better with the 155gr lapua senars and not the 178's? The 155s are just about as long as the 178's( I can get exact measurements if needed). When considering load density?

    Need help with 178gr A-Max load

    I picked up 200 178gr amaxes for my .308 and I have 5+ pounds of accurate 2460 to load up. Accurate powders nifty little load data PDF doesn't include a load for the 178gr. So I was curious as to what people have ran the 178grs with to get good accuracy. I have varget but I want to keep it for...

    Rock solid chassis!!!!!!

    Sounds great, And I agree about the chassis. I will probably get another for my next build. I will probably try to pick one up used when I can and avoid the hassle all together, but honestly I think this is one of the top competition chassis systems made.
