advice or expertise

Howdy yall, I am looking for a 300WM rifle to get into long range shooting (paper and steel), as well as a good big game gun (elk etc). I want to be able to reach out to 1000 and also use it hunting. I already have acquired nightforce glass, so that isn't a factor in my budgeting. Weight also...

Hi all, Based in SW Florida and just getting into long range marksmanship. Been shooting pistol and carbine for 15 years now, so familiar with firearms and the community. I enjoy bolting together carbines and just built my first precision rifle. At this stage I'm struggling a bit getting tight...

Just got a barrel with the index pin measuring .12480 Colt TDP spec calls for .1255 +0.000/ -.0005 so .0002 undersized I have another barrel from the same company measuring .12505 should this be concerning at all? The .1248 index pin is not sloppy in my upper receiver mouse hole/index pin slot...

Hi all, I have a Seekins Havak Hit in 6.5 cm and am cleaning it thoroughly for the first time. I have put about 380 rounds through the barrel and can't get the sucker clean. Under the borescope I found these weird "spots or patches". What are they and should I be concerned? Almost looks like a...

Good afternoon, I had posted on another thread about wanting to do a M40 platform tribute build. I say tribute because its going to be left handed, and in 6.5 Creedmoor. I have had ZERO proper training in the use of optics. So whatever I get will be going with me to training and classes. I'm...

G'day fellas, need some thoughts and help. *Be gentle please, first time poster long time lurker* I have recently bought a Remington 700 in 7mm RUM (<40 rnds fired unsure as to the mag installed but pushing 3.8") Need help identifying the rifle and what has been done to it as the shop cant tell...

Good evening everybody. I had a couple of quick questions as I am newer to reloading and only have experience with my 6.5 cm. I had a perfect load set up for .2 moa at 600 yards but as we all know with recent demands, I had to switch up my load. Before I was shooting 140 eld-m’s, hornady brass...

I don’t mean to beat around a dead horse, but I am needing some opinions on the best quality suppressor for a 6.5 creedmoor. I have talked with many different local shooters and they all seem to give different answers. Weight isn’t really a big deal as this specific rifle will be used for bench...

Hi there! Looking to get the communities recommendations on optics for my new ruger American ranch right I just picked up in 300. I will mainly be using this rifle for hunting within 150 yards and will be shooting probably half super half subs. Have considered just sighting rifle in for...

Hi there! I have recently been looking at grabbing a 16” Daniel Defense or Larue in .308. I have been running an 18” gas 308, but wanted to shave some pounds and a couple inches off the barrel for Stalk hunting. something I was curious about however was how much worse does the recoil get in...
