    What is it with the 6.5CM conspiracy theories...Don't get it.

    What would be the best length barrel for creedmoor hunting rifle build

    I am having a light weight hunting rifle built by LRI in 6.5 CM. My thought was 22" but they suggested 20". Great to 400 yards and you have to question the ethics of shooting animals with 6.5CM much past that. Not that it can't be done, but who wants cripples.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell DMR II 3.5-21 50mm

    Anyone have experience with the latest model? Looks like an intriguing option for a long range hunting scope...small form factor and all.

    Maggie’s Smoking Meat and Drinking Beer

    Ok here goes. First, I cook Texas style, which means low and slow with just dry rub. Salt and pepper are all that is required, but do not overdo the salt. Dries out the outer portion and gets too salty (obvious). You can also add some chili powder or cayenne to kick it up a notch, or some brown...

    Bullet weight is the key I believe 230 grain is good medicine.

    Hunting & Fishing Nilgai in Texas

    On the King Ranch, they require a .30 Mag minimum. I shot one a couple of years ago at a lasered 375 yards with my 300 Weatherby mag. Saw dust puff, animal rear up on hind legs (it was a brisket shot) guide heard bullet hit and not a hair or drop of blood. Guide looked long and hard because one...

    Hunting & Fishing Nilgai in Texas

    I considered both of those rounds but I guess I am a glutton for punishment and chose 33 Nosler. I also considered 35 Whelen in that 3.34 inch cartridge class.

    Maggie’s Smoking Meat and Drinking Beer

    That's what I did this weekend. I have achieved world fame for my pork ribs. Only downside was I could not shoot the deer in my front yard (smack in the middle of San Antonio Texas) Anyone want my secret to smoking ribs jus ask.

    What would be the best length barrel for creedmoor hunting rifle build

    I say 20" Insignificant loss in velocity from 22" and plenty to kill at 400 yards and a little beyond.

    McMillan Lead Times...AAARGH

    Just got off the phone with McMillan. Placed order 6/4 for 3 stocks, unaltered in any way...no inletting color. Said might be 8 weeks. Now saying 8 ore weeks. 4 months to get an un-inletted stock. Glad I did not order a camo drop-in. Might be next Christmas before that would be ready.

    Hunting & Fishing Nilgai in Texas

    Weight x Velocity x Diameter / 7000. I agree. Better measure of lethality than just muzzle energy. Diameter matters even in deer sized game.

    EuroOptic Messing With Me

    I agree...coating process can really affect light transmission. Probably harder to control this process than the actual lense grinding.

    33 Nosler

    Anyone have experience with the newest Nosler round? I am going to start off shooting Nosler 275 grain ABLR factory ammo, but since there are few options, I will be reloading soon enough. I will mainly be hunting, but will get in some competition stuff as well with maybe the 300 grain bullets...
