    Which .308 Bullets for 1,000 yds in a 20 inch AR-10 will work best???????????

    Lapua 155 gr Scenar with G1 BC of .508. But how far will it hold that BC and what does it drop to when it drops? Also, that bullet has a large hollow point cavity, so with such little weight in the nose, I would guess it can get rather twitchy ( sensitive) in the wind at 800-1000 yds compared...

    How light can a .375 CT be and shoot comfy?

    How light can a 375 CT be and still be comfortable to shoot with a muzzle brake and prone position?? I am seeing rifle weights of 16 pounds to 31 pounds for this cartridge. Of course it would be the best of all worlds to maximize "luggability" while maintaining accuracy and relative comfort...

    I am having a 375 CT built and would like to know about rate of twist for the high BC lathe turned monolithic bullets for extended long range. Are you guys using the standard 11.5 inch twist, or are you going tighter? Cheyenne Tactical uses an 11.5 inch twist on their M200, 375CT, but more...

    3 port 3 in or 5 port 4 1/4 in Muzzle Break on 375

    I think the gun will weigh 18-21 pounds, chambered for 375 Chey Tac. I am wondering which is more appropriate muzzle break: a 3 port, 3 inch long muzzle break, or a longer 4 1/4 inch muzzle break with 5 ports. Barrel length will be 29-30 inches, or maybe even 32 max. What I want to do is...

    What actions are best to build a 375CT repeater?

    I have exhausted myself during the last 3-4 days on the computer learning about various actions for the 375 Chey Tac. And I still don't know which ones are machined the best. The BAT Machining and the Barnard Precision seem to be the best for single shot .375CT's. Stiller Precision is said...
