    Range Report Fastest barrel

    Sorry to hear the delay in your tests. Jedi, I just want to know, what does shooting 3023 w/123s do that 2923 will not do? I believe you said you do not shoot steel, but not sure what exactly your use is w/this carbine. You said 100fps is a HUGE deal, and that you use a 20", and in a 47, both...

    Before and after blueprinting action: Results?

    I ALWAYS choose 8 twist for ANY/ALL 6mm and 6.5mm.......a 9 will work sometimes or most of the time, thru 142s - depending on variables, an 8.5 is common and usually does well, but the 8 is clear cut never marginal for any reason.

    Anybody running 6.5 CM in a long action?

    If you want to stretch out a 6.5 in an LA, go with a 6.5x55/AI, or the x284

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Sir, I would go to Either Graybeard outdoors where there is a good TC following and ask, or to Speciality Pistols forum, also many TC fans. Surely some of the aftermarket TC barrel companies can do it or recommend. Loved my old Contenders back in college with adjustable hair triggers. No...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Nice set up, so I assume it was chopped? In 308? What kind of accuracy are you seeing and have you done any mods to trigger or pin?

    The Latest GRADOUS Kill Stick has ARRIVED!! 16.5" 6.5x47L

    So will that Brake give much more blast to the shooter or not? Reduce rise and recoil?

    Steve, what bbl length 6x47 ?

    Help me pick my barrel contour!

    A fluted Varmint would be my pick, but a round would be fine in 30, in 6-7mm it would be a Light Palma for me. Extra weight will cut recoil. Should shoot bugholes. Twist accordingly.

    22 Creedmoor

    No doubt speed and little bullets are great on yotes, alot of folks go to the 17s and 20s with great results. Never gone that route myself, but not a hardcore varmint hunter who keeps pelts. Hear the 75 amax is known to do a number on deer. I do see a niche for an 8 twist 22 and 6mm Short...

    22 Creedmoor

    I suggested this round on another forum, posing it to gunwriters if Hornady might do a 22 and 6 CM. Personally, it's hard for me to justify a build of a barrel eater due to costs. If I want 2k bore life, I will buy a 243 or 22-250 factory, if I build I want a 6BR for bore life, but if a...
