7mm STW has been around for awhile. Great performer. So popular with the long range hunters, the Long range hunting forum has its own 7mm STW forum heading. Comes in between 7 mm rem mag and 7mm rum. Something to think about with the 7mm magnums is coal. 180 g/ vld type bullets make for...

Thank you for your insight. While value is one thing, the larger consideration is trying to identify and date these firearms. They have surely been in her family for a very long time. To learn about them would be learn more about her ancestors. Were they used for hunting only, or were they...

My wife has just inherited a very old fire arm. It is one of the two below - I don't know which one. Both firearms are in Norway, so I can't look at them. They have have hung on a wall of my wife's Grandmother for decades. I would like to know something about them, but I can't imagine where...

This rifle isn't for most of us. There is some cool technology. Tagging and trigger control would worry a bit especially for a heard situation. I have nothing against this company, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't show the dang-ly front leg shot, if there was one, in their marketing video...

Try dialing you power down to 10x. Don't spot your shot or have spotter to record without telling you POI. You could be inadvertently 'chasing' the first hole to make teeny-tiny groups. Five independent shots all with the same POA. Focus your vision on the reticle and not on the target.

I'm not sure I completely understand the system. It seems like the system fires when it's is happy - not the shooter - within constraints, I guess. The game warden might not be understanding when you tell him about when the cow walks in front of the bull just a fraction before the system goes...

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

Very cool to watch.

Well you are right. But I think most of the advice now is to mitigate the damage when the OP doesn't take Proneshooter's advice!

This scope isn't big jump in improvement over their 2.5-10x 32mm offering.

Some people believe in 5R rifling, others including at least one high end barrel maker think it's bunk. *However*, the 5R barrel is a from Benchmark and will be better than a factory barrel. Personally, if I were in your shoes any extra money would go into better glass. I would also consider...

Whoa, thinking outside the box. This really might be worth considering. On a similar idea I just had a barreled action made by Shilen. It was based on their DGR, floating bolt head/barrel nut action, which is made by Stiller. Along with a new trigger the cost was $1700 to my door, higher...

Re: Savage action for a 338 Norma mag You might want to take a look at this article over at Longrangehuning. 338 Edge Savage build in XLR Chassis On the positive side, they were able to make it a repeater. A potential problem is that the build was based on a 7mm ultra magnum. Savage...
