    338 lm @ 1 mile.

    I've posted a few times about elr with my 338. Today was by far the most gratifying day with this rifle. I've been striving to achieve a first round hit at a mile and that happened today. Luck is always welcome. But I'd did follow with 2 consecutive hits with an average 3 shot group of 20...

    Advice on replacement stock for modle 54 anschutz..

    Have a very nice older model 54. Has the original bench rest stock and shoots very well. I'm not an avid .22 shooter but do shoot long range more tactical style guns. I'm asking for advice on how to convert this rifle to a trainer so to speak. I like the aics style chassis or along those...

    Range Report Barrel temp????

    Just wanted opinions on how hot is to hot. I'm a little over protective especially on larger caliber guns. I usually shoot a group 3 to 5 shots and stop for 5 or 10 min to let the barrel cool. I've never actually been told to do this I just do. So anyone know? Thanks Natesguns.

    Range Report 338 at 1100 yards

    I've been trying to take 3 shots at 1100 yards about once or twice a week. I'm trying to learn how to read wind just by feel not using anything other than what's around. Weeds, leafs, dust, mirage (if any). I must say this is a lesson of patients. For me it's hard but I'm gaining. Here's my 3...

    Bulit weight variance question?

    I'm shooting a .338 lapua to 1000 yards and am looking to take this rifle out to around 1800.

    Range Report New to the .338 lapua. First crack at loading

    Due to the super high demands on every powder that I would even think about using. I'm currently forced to use some old IMR 4893 I've had for some time. It's producing some decent groups but I'm sure with other powders I'll get a bit better results. Or more temp stable results Rifle. Badger...

    155 gr scenar question?

    I've had good luck shooting 175 gr sierras out of my ar-10. When I tried using the 155gr scenars I had some load issues, but they performed great otherwise. Actually they shot better than the 175s. Anyone have suggestion on why they don't feed as well as the 175s or anyone else ran into this...

    Rifle Scopes Quality optics vs overall expense

    I'm not a pro, I don't claim to be the best shot or have the best equipment. I do understand that you must own quality equipment if you expect quality. I'm a sport class tactical shooter. I enjoy shooting long rang out to 1,300 yards when I get the chace and doing this takes somewhat expensve...

    Rifle Scopes What to put on my Anschutz 54

    Purchased a super match Anschutz to try my luck with target 22 shooting. The rifle acts like it's going to do just fine, but the scope that's on it must go. Don't want to spend a fortune but I know it's going to take a few bucks. Give me some recommendations.
