    I'm ready to make the next jump and have decided on the 6mm BRA as it seems to be the better of many options. Brass is easier to obtain, longer barrel life, less powder, and a good magazine options. So, can anyone help with the reamer options and best machining options - ie freebore?? Plan...

    Which Rear Bag Would You Recommend (PRS)?

    I'd vote for the Game changer as an all around bag.... works as a barricade bag and can be utilized as a rear bag as well. Other bag I'd add... Armageddon Python. This is similar to the Str8Laced. But I like Armageddon better. Andrew

    New Vectronix Terrapin X

    And when does the 3 year warranty start?? In the original Terrapins.... It started when the unit hit the distributors shelf and not when it arrived to the end user. So if it sat on the shelf for 6 months, the user got a 2.5 year warranty.... Not the stated 3 year warranty. That's CRAP...

    Any reason not to go 6.5 creedmoor over .308?

    Another quick idea... save up a few more $$$ and get the AI AW then you can have barrels for both 308 and 6.5. Just another thought.... My AIAE 308 pretty much lives in the safe now and used for required 308 matches or as a training rifle for newer shooters. My 6.5CM AIAX is my go to tack...

    7-300WSM or 300WM for fun between 800 and 1.2k?

    Get both!!! I recently had one of my 700 long actions pinned and had it set up as a switch barrel...7mm RM and 300 WM. I love shooting the 7mm all day long but the 300 WM is not the caliber to take for a high round count all day class. In my experience, the differences become more apparent...
