    Sidearms & Scatterguns F3 Holsters, my new favorite.

    I don't post here a bunch, mainly just lurk and read, but I know that holsters can be hard to get in a timely fashion, and thought I might let yall know about a local guy who makes some very nice holsters. I don't have a lot of experience with Kydex holsters, but I have used a few. My main...

    Does this sound right?

    To clarify how much MOA I have available, I can get just over 3 1/2 revolutions. So, 12 MOA per, that's just over 40. Here's a pic of the base.

    Does this sound right?

    I have a Savage 10fp 5R with a 20 inch barrel, and a Vortex PST 4-16 MOA scope. The scope is sitting on a Weaver 20 MOA base, and herin lies the question. I kinda expected with a 20 MOA base that the scope, when zeroed, would be in the bottom half of it's adjustment range. Instead it is...

    Range Report Savage 10fp 5R Range report and question about groups.

    Tried a couple loads of Varget behind some 178 bthp but they wouldn't group well. What load do you use?

    Range Report Savage 10fp 5R Range report and question about groups.

    Pretty happy with the gun, and was hoping yall could help me with something, I shot my new rifle for the first time yesterday, and I liked what I saw. There were a decent amount of inconsistencies and I think they were me. I could not get comfortable behind the bench, and couldn't get prone, so...

    My Savage 10FCP 5R

    Re: My Savage 10FCP 5R Well, I use the term "build" a bit loosely maybe. I meant put together. What barrel length is yours? any loads to suggest?

    My Savage 10FCP 5R

    Finally got it in, and put together. I have right at $1300 into this build and am really happy with it. Rifle is a Savage 10FCP 5R with a 20 inch barrel, the scope is a Vortex PST 4-16 with MOA reticle. Have some Hornady 178 BTHPs to figure out a load on, and a bunch of 168 BTHPs to...

    .308 load question...

    Re: .308 load question... Thanks all, I read all 13 pages of the .308 load info and it seems like that's a common theme.

    .308 load question...

    Re: .308 load question... Thanks. My thoughts on it are, drop is the easy part, wind is the hard part. So, if 178s are less affected by wind, those might be the better beginner bullets.

    .308 load question...

    Re: .308 load question... Knew I left something out. I plan to shoot F class stuff at 600 yards, and eventually do 1000 as well. Most of my shooting will be around 600. That being said, since my range time is limited, I am hoping to find one load to do all this with. Also plan to hunt with...

    .308 load question...

    If you had limited funds, and had to pick a single projectile and powder to get started with, what would it be? My rifle is a Savage 10FCP 5R .308 with a 20 inch barrel. I am leaning towards a 178 grain Amax, and Varget powder. After doing a lot of reading, and searching, it looks like that...

    First precision rifle.... Opinions wanted.

    Re: First precision rifle.... Opinions wanted. My plan for the rifle is hunting and long range shooting mainly out to 600, but out to 1,000 eventually. My main goal is to learn. A buddy of mine with his B4 gets out of the Army in the summer and I want to be set up and know my way around it a...

    First precision rifle.... Opinions wanted.

    Ok, not trying to make a Savage vs Remington thread, but those are the two rifle I am looking at. I was set on the Savage, when someone suggested this Remington. I don't know enough to decide which is "Better" but I am partial to the Savages. Here is what I was planning to get. Savage 308 20 5R...

    Rifle Scopes Scope advice wanted...

    Re: Scope advice wanted... Yeah, I saw that it has a Mil dot, but that might be okay since the trade off is a low end of 5x which makes it better for hunting.

    Rifle Scopes Scope advice wanted...

    Looking for a scope to put on a Savage bolt action .308. Haven't decided exactly what gun to get yet, but it will be a heavy barreled gun, to be used hunting some, but mainly for long range target shooting. I would like to be able to get out to 1,000 with it, but most of my shooting will be done...
