    6.5 creedmoor 22" 1-7 twist barrel, any opinion, experience or data?

    Hi guys, I'm planning about my next barrel, I'm going to always use direct thread Omega 300 for this gun. So wanna cut down the length and weight of the whole gun. (MDT ESS + Origin) Heard the new 150s heavy bullets are awesome, but need higher twist. So if I only use high BC bullets...

    Gunsmithing M700 switch barrel setup?

    Looking for advice for those who have switch barrel setups with their M700s. I know there are other actions that are easier to do this with, but I've already got the rifle. I really hate waiting on builds/re-barrelings. So, next rebarrelling, I'm going to have several barrels threaded...

    How should I have my Lawton Action/Barrel setup?

    So I'm in contact with Lawton to get it built the way I want it. But I want to run it past you guys to see if there's any changes you would make. So far I'm looking at the following: 7500(probably going to change) series SA Right Hand shooter, Stainless, with a 20 MOA base. With a 18" or 20"...

    Accuracy Loss - Bipod vs BenchRest Setup

    I am constructing an AR15, and am looking for top accuracy at 100 and 200 yards. I would expect shooting off a bipod is less accurate than shooting off a heavy benchrest arrangement, but how much difference might there be (shooting off a bench)? Is it possible to shoot tiny groups (.25 MOA)...

    Gunsmithing my solution to one set-up bolt truing

    i saw a discussion here the other day about bolt truing and hating to use the steady rest. i came up with a simple solution that allows all operations to be done in one setup, and no steady rest. it was so obvious, once i thought of it, it was one of those "why didn't i think of that before"...

    Advanced Marksmanship Moving Target setup?

    Does anyone have any pics plans etc. of a moving target rig. I've seen some elaborate setups with railroad tracks and winches but nothing simple or portable which you could setup at the range in a few minutes. Thanks
