    How long can I go without cleaning my rifle?

    Re: How long can I go without cleaning my rifle? What the first guy said was spot on. I usually go about 200 rounds before cleaning unless I know I'm not gonna get to shoot for a long time. I know a gun maker that went over 500 before he had to clean.

    savage predator group isue in 6.5 creadmoor

    Re: savage predator group isue in 6.5 creadmoor Oh BTW WE did put it on steel at 600 but my target needs fresh paint. He could hit well enough at that range but. 75 just don't seem good enough. I have heard that sometimes VLDs won't wake up till about 300 yards but my rifle stacks them just...

    savage predator group isue in 6.5 creadmoor

    Re: savage predator group isue in 6.5 creadmoor Ill try it out at 300 and 600 but I'm pretty positive I didn't pull any of my shots. I know its not impossible but you generally know when you pull one I have been shooting. My rifle a lot here lately and I always practice flinch control and...

    What the heck is going on with my wife's Howa?

    Re: What the heck is going on with my wife's Howa? 35 rounds is just getting going most of the guys I know only clean the bore about every 200 rounds. I do the same. I have not lost accuracy yet before a cleaning unless the barrel is starting to go. I also don't think you have a...

    savage predator group isue in 6.5 creadmoor

    A friend of mine just bought a savage predator in 6.5 creadmore. I am already confused because there are no lands to set depth off of. There is a smooth ring you can get up against but no lands. We started with 42.5 grn of 4350 and worked up to 43 grn. .75 is the best we could get for a group...

    Remington XM2010 on the civilian market?

    Re: Remington XM2010 on the civilian market? I'm thinking a Rem 700 custom build and an xlr stock and you have the same rifle for $3000 or less. I think $18k is shameful. Just MHO..

    remington 700 factory accuracy

    Re: remington 700 factory accuracy I think 1 to 1.5 MOA is a good estimate on what it will do.. You may get better but don't expect it. If you want one that will shoot sub 1/2MOA out of the box try a Savage Model 10 I only say this because they have proved to me over and over to out shoot the...

    new bolt gun for wife

    Re: new bolt gun for wife Oh and I will add that the 1 in 9 twist will turn the 75 grain and 77 grain just fine. I shoot the A-Max over all the others because the high BC I had 1500 of the 75gr Hornady BTHPM and they just dont hang with the 75gr. A-Max. I put 24gr of varget behind it. I have...

    new bolt gun for wife

    Re: new bolt gun for wife You may want to take a look at a savage Model 10 predator in 6.5 creedmoor. they are great and I would place a bet that it will out shoot the Remington out of the box.. If you don't want the 6.5 CM that would be a great round for a female then look at the same rifle...

    Is .308 outclassed as a tactical match caliber?

    Re: Is .308 outclassed as a tactical match caliber? Okay I did not mean to step on any .308 guys toes. I am just stating the obvious about them. And I am also saying that this guy wants one for Tactical Match shooting. for these reasons I believe that a 6 or 6.5X47 or a 6.5 creadmoor 7mm08 or...

    What am I doing wrong

    Re: What am I doing wrong Either your speed is not what you think or your scope height is wrong in your program.. at 400 yards your program if its any good at all will be dead on.. I dont like to use a crony to get my speed rather use the program to find it with what you are actually...
