    Re: 155's in your GAP-10 Not sure what others will say but don't load them like you see posted on her for the bolt guns trying to reach 3k with them. Keep it under 2800 or what ever is equivalent to 2650 for 175s. or you may be eating your buffer spring.

    Rem 40X Silhoette Rifle Questions

    Re: Rem 40X Silhoette Rifle Questions Dick thanks for that update on the stock. This gun is the Lapua 6.5x47 not the one on the 222 mag case. So its hits like a 260 Rem. I may check into that bottom safety Jewell makes if I want or need one. Its a sweet rifle overall. Glad I bought it.

    Rem 40X Silhoette Rifle Questions

    Re: Rem 40X Silhoette Rifle Questions SDWhirlwind it has both cuts in the receiver as described. If it was a repeater then they removed the safety for competition purposes then. It could be 67 the bolt knob sure is smaller than a 700 and the handle it longer and sticks out more.
