Debating on a Gun Build?

Re: Debating on a Gun Build?

For that kind of range, stay away from the .22's. Some folks can do it, but it's tough. At about 500 yds, my .223 gets crazy with 75/77gr match bullets.

I've been shooting 300wm and 308. I'm in your shoes and about to get a new rifle. My smith is suggesting 6.5 creedmoor. From what I've read / talking to folks, there probably isn't enough difference between any of the short action 6.5's to worry about.

That 6.5-.284 would probably be a barrel burner, if that makes a difference to you.

Good Luck.

Anyone have any suggestions on a builder for the .260? </div></div>

Lots of good builders who sponsor the site...My choice and can easily recommend Robert Snyder of RWSnyder Gunsmithing
