    Defiance Action - Cerakoted and rough - Need Help

    I have used lapping compound on multiple actions that were running a little bit rough. I had a custom build from GA precision and was initially pretty disappointed. Defiance action. I also was initially only mildly impressed by my DLC coated Mausingfield. I used a little lapping compound on...

    Seekins HAVAK Precision Rifle

    I have a Havak in a 6.5 PRC. I am very pleased with it. Sub ½ MOA with both the 143 ELDX ammo and the 147 ELD-M ammo. Action has gotten considerably smoother with minimal use. I think it is a tremendous value. I have far more expensive custom guns. Makes me question their value a little.

    Range Report 25 cal for comps

    I saw this thread recently. It mentions a 132 gr high BC 25 cal bullet being produced pretty soon. Pretty intriguing. https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/25-284-build.202904/

    6.5 prc

    I agree with above. I have already steered multiple guys looking for a do-all hunting gun towards the 6.5 PRC. That said, I have several rifles in 6.5 SAUM, 6.5-284, 260, 6.5 CM, and recently bought a 6.5 PRC in Seekins Havak which I'm really impressed by at the price point. I admit to...

    6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 PRC in Long Action?

    6.5-284. Runs well in a long action. Factory ammo in a pinch. I am shooting 140's over 3k. Very accurate. Great bullet selection. Barrel life is actually quite good with slower powders (H1000, Retumbo). Lapua brass. Get an 8 twist long barrel, throated for longer bullets to take advantage...

    Range Report New Sierra 150 SMK for 6.5

    Try Retumbo. I shoot just under 58 gr in 6.5-284 for 3030fps. Should be best Hogdon option for 150’s

    264 Win Mag

    I know there are separate threads on nitriding barrels. I am looking at doing a 264 WM currently. If I wanted to nitride, I recall it is generally recommended to break-in to be sure it shoots, nitride, clean the hell out of it, then shoot away. Correct? What barrels would you not recommend...
