    Should I go magnum?

    It's a bit more than 150fps, in my case. 26" 6.5creed, 140eldm @2840. 25" 6.5prc, 140eldm@3060.

    Should I go magnum?

    6.5prc is about the biggest "magnum" that works in a short action. Sure, there is 300wsm and 7rsaum, but they turn into single feed or eat up case capacity(mag fed) with the interesting bc bullets. 3000+ is doable with 147gr and 6.5prc, leaning on it a little. It will have similar life as a...

    Yeah, I'm afraid the super 700 will be priced like their mounts and handguards. I expect to see a 400+ price tag on the super 700, it was 275-300. At that price I think it's good, I have 2 still. At 350+, it's outclassed by a bix tacsport pro x in top sear height options, trigger shoe...

    Inherited a Rem 700 5R Milspec

    The 5r rifle was just a marketing deal. There is nothing about it and the m40 that are similar except the action, and the m40 action is gone over by smiths at Quantico. The barrel on a 5r shares same rifling profile and tw of the m24, but it's not the same barrel blank or quality of blank that...

    8tw in a 6creed will handle everything except 110smk and 112 Barnes. Ive used 8tw with 105hybrids, 108 bergers and 107smk in a 6br with zero stability issue or reduced bc. Tack another 150+fps to the 6br speed and i think the 6creed will be OK with 8, unless the 110 or 112 bullet is what you want.

    .308 mtu or m24?

    I guess it depends on stock and where balance point is wanted. I'm not crazy about crazy heavy rifles, not a prs shooter, and will use all my rifles in the field. Ive walked miles in snow with a 14lb bolt gun, not gonna do that with a 22lb rifle.

    .308 mtu or m24?

    Anymore, I'm a real big fan of med and hvy palma. The mtu/comp contours are great for bench guns and gamer guns, but to get balance right, requires adding weight to rear of gun, and I'm not big on 20+lb rifles. My 7prc is close, bought very lightly used here, cdg+a5+pva 26"m24+razor 2= a...

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    This is where I'm at. I really like my solus and pva barrel, and I don't need 20 of every small part for an action, but ot sure would be nice to be able to talk to them or order a small part. The origin i have is just as nice and zermatt understands CS.

    It's neat, I guess, but there's plenty of guys that fuck up the standard reloading process. The "follow strict lab process to reload" is gonna be interesting. And as another poster mentioned, then you are this close to a proof load, it don't take much to have a real bad day. And while the...

    Off topic, but did you try calling them to order bullets? I tried to order a couple boxes of different bergers, online, it wouldn't let me ship to Illinois. I called and they said it was no problem and took my order on the phone.

    NEW- Geissele King Hunter

    So pretty much like 99% of manufacturers of any good. The 6.8western was a cash grab centered on long range hunters, it pretty much fizzled. It didn't do much over a 6.5prc and was eclipsed by other already established cartridges. This 7mm brokeback can be almost matched(looking at their...

    Thanks, guess I didn't know giessele branched into bolt actions.

    What action are they using? It would be a pretty nice rifle in 7prc.

    Rust and BT Eliminator/Carbon Remover

    After cleaning with boretech, I always spray non chlorinated brake parts cleaner down bore and chamber, then 2 dry patches, then 1 oiled patch. Been using boretech for 15ish yrs and haven't had a problem. I live in so-il, so humidity is somewhat a concern.

    Aero precision shipping times

    Yeah, what i said I'd do and did(pva). Unless it's a special "available only at aero", I'd order somewhere with real-time inventory and shipping department.

    Aero precision shipping times

    Maybe try decaf. What part of my comment that you posted is bullshit? It's pretty factual, unless you want a 223 rifle/pistol/bolthead or a exclusive color option, there are other vendors that carry same part that will ship a day after buying. Couple things I've noticed on aero over last 6mo...

    Aero precision shipping times

    Well that is cool and thanks, I can see wanting that option, and it is bs with there notification/in stock/shipping times. I wasn't trying to poke the baer, just wandered, I've heard of shitty comms from aero for 6-8mo. In the big aero thread, there is several mentions of it. Why I went pva...

    Aero precision shipping times

    Oh I get it, it would burn my ass to. I just wandered what the allure was in ordering from aero, outside of 223 solus stuff? I'm not gonna wait in line for a BA barrel, then wander "why my rig don't shoot". Monte, James at nss has solus actions in hand, unless you want a 223(idk if that was...

    Aero precision shipping times

    I mean, if it's only available from them, and they take forever to ship, why would I care to order from them? I really couldn't care less, honestly, just wandered what the allure was to the fde receiver that demanded putting up with ordering directly from them. I assume you know but dont want...
