    Seekins HAVAK Precision Rifle

    Too the 300 out again today. 175 Barnes LRX. It’s a start I fired this group free recoil. Out of curiosity anybody seeing better results with a heavier hold vs free recoil with this weapon? My sendero likes to be loaded into the bipod so I’ll try that technique next time.

    We shall see! I actually hope that load works out bc it’s what I use in my sako finnlight. It’s a hammer on elk.

    Gunsmithing Timney 510 adjustment

    1. If I loosen the trigger tension down too far will the little screw come out or does it have a stop? 2. Everybody says don’t jack with the other two screws. But if drop the trigger weight to 1.5 lbs from 3, will that create a situation where the over travel and /or the sear engagement will be...

    The 510 trigger was crisp but I sure wish it came at 2lbs as standard. 3 lbs just seems really heavy when you're trying to shoot tight groups. Gonna pull mine and adjust it. Might get a 2 stage later.

    Weather was 30 degrees with 20 mph winds. 200 grain accubonds. Should be at 2900 FPS with a 26 inch barrel. That's a lot of oomph. I will get out on a better day with more time. Pretty optimistic.

    Got my 300 rigged out. Here’s a tidbit I was not aware of. The long action only takes the Carbon fiber magazine unless you completely swap the bottom metal and fit a different one for it. I was rather hoping to use the Pmag 5L Magnums as well in the current configuration. Oh well, it...

    So you guys are saying that your brass only grows .003 or .004 on firing b/c you have a very tight chamber? Is that not good. When it comes to reloading I always full length resize and trim anyway so I have never worried about such nuances. So I am completely ignorant of the point you make...

    Enough said. Send it back! I had to have a brand new sako finnlight sent back for similar performance. They just gave me a new one. I get my Havak tomorrow. Praying now...

    Might try a load in either extreme like the Barnes 175 LRX and maybe a Hornady 212 ELD-X load before it goes back. Sometimes they just don’t like a load. I couldn’t get the Hornady loads to group anywhere near what I wanted in my sendero, but 175 LRX did dandy.

    Jeez Louise! I’m pleased they fixed you up which shows great (followup) service, but worried about that list being an indicator of the initial QC, as apparently a boatload of stuff needed to be redone. Again, for this price, all weapons should be test fired and none should leave the shop if the...

    I just got a shipping notice for my 300WM. Mine has a delivery of next Monday. Guess I will see what it will do and report shortly thereafter. Have Minox ZP5-25 scope and seekins rings already in hand.

    Rifle Scopes UPS will not ship a scope

    Can’t you have UPS (the real one and not the little franchisee) do a pick up at your house?

    I have had good luck with OP. Got a smoking deal on a very expensive scope with a 20% off military coupon- arrived within a week. I tried a couple of other vendors and nobody would match it which I understand and is just dandy but I’m not gonna turn down an extra $350 discount on a high...

    Rifle Scopes Dropped my rifle, turret completely CAME OFF!

    1. Find a damn good diner. Half the fun of a hunting trip is the other moments. While others are pushing paper or getting shat upon this very morning, you can be spreading butter and honey on biscuits. 2. Buy a Ruger super Blackhawk and you can leave it in your trunk as a backup weapon during...

    Actually, I’m kind of disappointed they are not sending proof targets. For $2,200 you think they could test their product to ensure it shoots better than a $500 Remington before it goes out the door. It’s not just an accuracy issue either as the fellow with the loose barrel nut illustrated...

    Are they sending proof targets stating the load they shot at the factory.

    Of course a better solution is just having a bolt lock in the first place. ;-)
