I thought the same thing, so I contacted Howa through their Facebook page. They said that it is correct and not a typo

I'm looking at getting the rifle mentioned in the title. It comes with a pre-threaded muzzle but its 1/2x28 in 300 win mag. Doing searches all I could find in the real popular brakes was 5/8x24 thread. I asked Howa and they confirmed it is the correct thread pitch and recommended a radial brake...

I'm starting to delve into the larger platform AR's. I figured to start with the barrel as the first piece and found the Rainiet Ultramatch 6.5 Creedmoor 26 inch barrel seen here...

I shot my javelina this year at 204 yards with the 140 gr Accubond that federal is loading. Exit was silver dollar size and everything exited. Hoping to shoot a nice mule deer this year

Botach was at one point going to be considered for the urban dictionary. Botach(verb,adj)- to take advantage of someone, usually in both orifices; to describe an unpleasant situation IE: I placed an order online and they really Botached it up. Had to file a complaint with the credit card...

I have a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 on my 18 inch Grendel. Shot out to 500 yards last weekend and was making repeated hits before the steel stopped swinging. Shooting factory 123 SSTs out of the brownells branded barrel and matching bolt I was getting 3/4 minute groups out to distance. Am very happy...

My buddy and I got drawn for 19A in Arizona this year, which is in my backyard. My first successful big game hunt came in the form of a javelina earlier this year but this is my first deer hunt I've ever gotten to do. Growing up watching hunting shows, I've been dreaming of a nice wide mule deer...

My buddy and I are looking to get a couple radios to keep in the trucks for communication when out in the woods and exploring the various canyons and some small caverns in the area. I started looking on Amazon but this is one area I have zero knowledge in. We have access to radios we use on the...

Yesterday was the opener of javelina season. I was originally scheduled off to hunt, but my boss' wife had to have short term notice heart surgery so I couldn't hunt. Worked out pretty good cuz it snowed yesterday from 1pm to 7pm, which is pretty rare for this area. Take off this morning at 6am...

I've looked at the Warner Flat line bullets and they look amazing, something I definitely want to try. Is there a published BC for the 6.5 bullets yet? I've searched several places and the only graphs I could find had data for all but the 6.5. As far as expectations go, I think that needs to be...

Thank you for the responses so far. I didn't post my rifle because I've mentioned it in a couple of other threads and didn't want to get redundant. I'm currently shooting a Howa 6.5 Creedmoor with the 26 inch barrel in a Bell and Carlson light tactical stock. Same scope i mentioned in OP. It's...

I've always been infatuated with long range shooting for a long time and have recently gotten a good rifle and some gear. This last weekend I pushed my longest shots from 1000 yards previously to 1200 yards with my 6.5 Creedmoor. I was super stoked and still wearing the grin, however I've got...

I bought a Howa 6.5 Creedmoor 26 inch threaded barreled action from Brownells and dropped it into a Bell and Carlson light tactical stock. Talley 1 piece 20 moa base, Vortex rings, Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 scope. Factory trigger, no bedding, just dropped it in the stock, bolted the scope on and...

For the one who mentioned Prescott Valley, there are a couple spots in Paulden to shoot. One of my spots is 1200, the other I found is 1500 at least but I haven't shot there yet. Send me a PM and we can shoot sometime. There's places in Ash fork if you're willing to risk Deliverance

I got my scope back via FedEx today. The repair ticket states that the parallax ring was loose, but no other adjustments or repairs were made. Would a loose parallax ring cause a significant wandering zero? Im talking a 3/4 inch group and then the very next group 2 inches and progressing further...

I sent my Vortex Diamondback scope back to Vortex last Monday. The zero was wandering left worse and worse with every group. I tried 2 sets of rings, made sure the base was tight, action screws were torqued, etc. Shooting ammo that's proven 3/4 out of the rifle. Shipped it Monday, they got it...

Get the packing type paper that comes in long rolls 18 inches wide. Staple in rows to a heavy pallet. Take a t-post and hammer with you. Set your target and then immediately behind it set the t-post. Put pallet over t- post. It'll be tough to see at distance but still shows where you're...

I currently have a Weatherby Vanguard in 30-06 that I have dropped into a Manners stock. It shoots pretty regularly just over 3/4 of an inch groups at 100, and I've used it to shoot 168 grain Bergers to 1000 yards successfully. I want to get a second rifle that I can shoot further, with less...

Got in late tonight, tired, splitting headache from quitting caffeine. Pulled my backpack out of the truck, didn't realize the strap was looped on my Henry 22 lever action. It hit muzzle first on the concrete drive way, then scope,then settled on the wood stock. Swore silently...a lot, got it...
