    1st bolt gun. Savage precision elite or Christensen MRP (300 prc)

    Sorry for not replying earlier. As far as distance, it would be in the 1300-1700 range. Why 300 prc... good question. I'm wanting to get more into 30 cal stuff. I was looking at 300wm for the longest time, but I like the idea of not having to worry about the belt on the wm when...

    1st bolt gun. Savage precision elite or Christensen MRP (300 prc)

    As the title says, I'm looking for my 1st bolt gun. I shoot plenty of precision AR stuff but want to go alittle further range, hence preferring to go with 300 prc. That's being said, any reason to go with 1 over another? I've shot plenty of savage rifles but only one christensen. Both shot...

    pros/cons on the Savage Elite Precision? looking at one in 300WM

    I won't be selling it. Rebarrel sure. But I'll buy another guy vs selling it. Lol. im use to savage actions (243 and 7mm) but those r just cheap hunting rifles.

    pros/cons on the Savage Elite Precision? looking at one in 300WM

    As the title says, I am looking for a precision bolt gun. I have played in the AR small and large frame world of precision shooting and looking to dab into the bolt action world. I, or i should say my wife, has a savage in 243 and 7mm. Both bolt guns are your very affordable, more of a hunting...

    Larue MBT-2s Trigger

    I Have a few of them. They are a nice fill in till I can find a HSNM used. For under $100, it's very tough to beat.

    Best adjustable gas block?

    I like my JPs but I have 2 POF versions too. Both are great. Funny thing is on my "cheap" 7.5 sbr build, I threw on a Joe Bob adj gas block ($25) and it's doing just as good.

    JP 224V upper VS Larue 224V upper

    I have a LaRue 20 inch and it shoots well. I have 3 JP barrlers and at the time of the 224V, they had to redo barrels and wouldnt have any for sale till Jan/Feb, so I went with the LaRue. I've found some great hand loads for it and it shoots well. That being said, I'm sure if I find a good...

    My 224 Valkyrie build / reloading progress

    I decided since I had somewhat of a bad time out last time I was going to redo some of the 80 ELD's. I also realized that whlie my max chamber / lands length for the 88s are 2.325, for the 80 ELD's, its 2.300 kinda surprising. ive been told/seen that the 80s prefer a .035-.040 jump (88s are hit...

    My 224 Valkyrie build / reloading progress

    Went out today around 11am. Overall it was a good day. I started off really well, then it kinda just went down hill. only there for about 3 hours, so i definitely wasnt rushing myself. I had the chrono out and was getting great #s, but around the time the chrono started acting up and giving...

    .224 Valkyrie

    I'm going to load up some 80 and 88 elds today. After looking over all the data ive found for these rounds, it seems there is more info out there for the 80s. For the 88s Im going to load 5 rounds with varget. Going to see how it does at 23.4, 23.6 and 23.8grs go. Going to seat them a...

    Trigger Upgrade

    I've had a few triggers over the years and I've never been a "trigger snob". Usually I rocked the stock trigger....till i got into precision rigs, then all that went out the window. Imo, the LaRue MBT is the "new" RRA 2 stage. The RRA was THE go-to trigger for a quality 2 stage for decades...

    My 224 Valkyrie build / reloading progress

    Figured I'll start doing some basic prep stuff tonight until the SB die comes in tomorrow. Total I have 300 once fired Hornady 224V brass. While I'll prep the whole 300, I'll be only using 50 or 100 brass at a time while doing work ups. This should give me a baseline of how many reloads i can...

    My 224 Valkyrie build / reloading progress

    This past Monday was range day for the 224V with factory ammo Hornady 88 ELD, Fed 90 smk and Fed 75 TMJ I loaded up the 88 ELD's first for sighting in my scope. I first 5 shots @ 50 yards, then 5 @ 100 yards and got it pretty dang close. Next 5 were practice shots. The last 5 shots were my...

    My 224 Valkyrie build / reloading progress

    Mods, if this isn't allowed or you feeling should be in the "semi-auto" forum, please feel free to move. I started a post on another forum but wanted to post here since SH has also been very helpful with this round. So I have had this rifle built for about 6 months now but because AZ summers...

    .224 Valkyrie

    Got my Hornady O.A.L. case today. I did 10 tries to see what #s I got. Highest was 2.341 ( first try and bullet got stuck in barrel). I threw that # out. That being said 7 times I got 2.325, 2 times I got 2.321, and 1 time I got 2.323. So it looks like the LaRue 20" stealth is at 2.325".
