    Blaser R93 HHS (375 H&H and 308 Winchester) specialty pistol

    The 375 is going to have a load developed (248 Hammer Hunter's), and then used for some big game hunting. The HHS had less than 50 rounds through it. The 375 barrel will see limited use. The 308 will be used the most, and for big game hunting. I appreciate your insight and sharing information...

    Blaser R93 HHS (375 H&H and 308 Winchester) specialty pistol

    I was able to purchase what is a unicorn specialty pistol for me. Blaser R93 HHS with two 14" barrels (375 H&H and 308 Winchester). I remember seeing an article or two about these years ago. Since that time I have looked off and on to no avail. The 375 H&H barrel has one of Holland's older...

    Burris xtriii for hunting

    Yes, I use the 3.3-18 XTR-III for hunting. Reliable, good glass, good reticle, good turrets. I have the 5.5-30 too, but I prefer the 3.3-18 for a do everything scope (including hunting) over the 5.5-30.

    A short barrel 7mm rem mag?

    Let this answer the powder burn question, since the 7mm Dakota (Similar to a 7mm STW) uses more powder than a 7mmRM. 1000 yards, doing first time drop confirmations. I mentioned I was going to come down at my first shot at a grand, but changed my mind to confirm with a second shot. Then, I...

    A short barrel 7mm rem mag?

    I run a 18" 7mm Dakota (175's and 180's) and a 17" 7mm Rem Mag Improved with 180's. They both shoot fine (no problem with stabilization) past a grand. It will easily kill way past your 200 yard line. What bullet weight do you typically use?

    Short Barrel 300 PRC

    I have had a 15.75 7.82 Patriot (short action Lazeroni case) that ran 180's at around 2750 fps or 150's at 3001 fps. 20" 300 RUM with 230's at 2825 fps I do NOT have a 300 PRC I do have a 18" 7mm-300 PRC (300 PRC necked down to 7mm) and I run the 190 Hybrid at 2753 fps

    Short Barrel 300 PRC

    You could always chop the Seekins 2"... It is always good to have reason to build a new toy. You can guesstimate around 30-35 fps per inch. Twist rates will be the same for the short barrels as they are for longer ones. I typically run 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 inch barrels, and I run the same...

    Best hunting caliber for barrel length 16.5-20"

    If you go with a 308 Winchester, Hornady TAP (168's) work great. My 15.75" 308 Win XP-100 shooting the 168 grain Hornady TAP Ammo

    Best hunting caliber for barrel length 16.5-20"

    I can give you actual MV's for barrel lengths, that are accurate at 100 and downrange. These will primarily be 15.75, 17", and 18" barrel lengths, with both factory and reloads. With Aoudad in mind with a shorter barrel, I would lean toward the 6.5 PRC for a 6.5 caliber, especially if you want...

    Hunting/Competition Rifle Selection

    The 6.5 Creed will work for plains game of the size you are talking about and it will work fine for the PRS/NRL game as well. Encourage you to use a bonded bullet like the Accubond or bullets like the Barnes LRX or Hammer's for SA game. The PRC is going to give you more horsepower than the...
