    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    I do like the capabilities of the 8.6 with supers and subs while being able to switch around pretty easily in a bolt gun.

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    Honestly curious on the 338 ARC idea and your thoughts of it. I’ve got mixed feelings between it and the 8.6 Blackout, mostly based on availability and popularity of the round and components. I thought that either would have been more established at this point but it seems to be fairly even...

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    Love it. I’ve been jones’ing for @sgtsmmiii shorty posted a few years back. Love the concept in his photos here. Have even thought about chopping a couple of Ruger Americans (in 300blk/223) to test the shorty bolt waters more.

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    How do you like the stubby .223? I’ve been thinking about setting up a truck gun using a short 700 in a McMillan Hunter stock or Manners CS1 with 9-10.5” barrel and a can.

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    DISCLAIMER : EVERY FIREARM IS DIFFERENT. USE THIS INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK. THIS LOAD WAS DEVELOPED IN A BOLT ACTION WITH 16.5” BARREL. This was using CCI large pistol magnum primers, Makers 500 grain T-Rex and 16.0 grains of Lil Gun powder. Starline brass. I have tested H110 as well, but...

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    Preferred should be able to get you fixed up for that 450 BM. They will go down to 8”. Just had a 22 creed spun up for my son’s first rifle. It shot ¾ MOA within the first 5 rounds with factory hornady ammo.

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    It’s easy enough. I went with a Tromix barrel shortly before they stopped production. Believe it’s a 1/10 twist. Shoots sub minute with sub sonic loads. I can’t ask it for more throwing that much lead down range.

    Rem 700 SA based SBR

    I have a 16” 458 socom on a REM 700 action. Would love to get it cut down to around 10” since it is strictly for subsonic use. Currently running 500 grain Makers at 975 FPS. Left a blood trail this last season that Helen Keller could have seen the blood from. 85 yard shot and 50 yard track. Pic...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    That’s awesome. Thanks for the feedback. Excited to get by barrel in and spun on my action. May have to hit you up for some load suggestions. Thank you!

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    How are these doing for you? I have a 16.5” 22 creed ordered from PBB. Curious about velocities and muzzle blast (and powder burn rate). I’ll only run this one suppressed since it’s going to be a go-to rifle around the farm.

    .458 Socom Builder

    I’ll throw my 16” .458 bolt into the thread. This is using a Tromix 1:10 twist exclusively for 500 grain maker bullets. She will absolutely smoke a deer! Left a blood trail last month that Helen Keller could follow.
