    Anyone actually shooting Nosler 6.5 Creedmoor brass?

    I am thinking about buying some Nosler 6.5 Creedmoor brass, and I just can't find any reviews by people actually using it. Everyone seems to be talking about it, but is anyone actually running it in their guns. Wondering if it is a lot better than the Hornady brass? I read somewhere that the...

    Anyone built a 338 Norma Mag on a Savage action?

    I just bought a 116 Brush Hunter in 375 Ruger (large shank action) to use for a 338 edge build. Well I have been thinking about a 338 NM as it is more mag friendly with 300gr Berger hybrids. If I do this am I running into the same issues as doing a 338 LM on a non LM action? What say you on...

    Savage 110 action vs. Rem 700 for 338 Edge build

    The Savage will be just fine for your edge build, however I would recommend doing it on a large shank. I just bought the Savage 116 Alaskan Brush Hunter in 375 Ruger, so I could have the stainless large shank action out of it for a 338 Edge build I have planned. Just to clarify on the Savage...

    230gr Hybrid Target

    Bigwheel, will you COL allow you to magazine feed? I have an action, bottom metal, and AICS mags that I could use, but I think I can only get like 3.625" COL in the mag.

    230gr Hybrid Target

    Bigwheels, what did your COL end up at? I'm trying to decide if I want my next build to be a 300WM based on this bullet or go with a 338LM and the 300gr Bergers. If I can get the kind of speed you are, with great accuracy, no real reason to do a 338, as its only about .3 mils (about 19")...

    Rifle Scopes ATACR glass worth the $$$ difference over the SS HD 5-20?

    As the title says, is the ATACR's glass worth the extra grand over the SS HD? I know one is FFP and the other SFP, I don't really care much about that as the gun it will be going on is going to be way to heavy to carry around and hunt with, so yardage will for the most part always be known. My...

    .338 Winchester Mag vs .300 Win Mag vs .338 Laupa

    338 WM is not going to shoot the ultra high BC 300gr bullets with enough velocity to be very effective at ELR like the Lapua. If you are only interested in shooting the light 220gr to 230gr 338 bullets then you would be better off shooting the much higher BC 230gr .308 billets out of the 300Wm.

    I like the looks of the Tactical better, which isn't a huge factor, but it does count.

    bottom metal options for savage short action

    They have a kind of half ass fix for the trigger guard bolt release. You have to jb weld a little lever on to the release that protrudes up were they use to. It works, just wish they would come up with something better.
