    Which scope for 1000 yard rifle

    Well, I guess I’m into the seven PRC game now and I’d like to do a little hunting with it. PRC I have a local F class range, but I don’t think I would get to shoot there very often as it’s kind of an invitation only thing which is a shame to be in West Texas with so much real estate and no...

    Updated advice on optics at or under $1500

    I’m just curious why MOA is so bad. Why are you saying it’s an rad world?

    Which scope for 1000 yard rifle

    I’ve seen a couple of threads on here recommending this and that for getting into the thousand yard game. I’ve noticed a lot of the links are not working anymore or the scopes have been discontinued. I want a Leupold mark five so bad I can taste it but just can’t turn loose 2000+ bucks. Right...

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    It does have several thousand run through it. I figure If im going to go with a new barrel might as well go all the way. Wished I could find some good within driving Distance. I have Speedy in San Antonio do a 280AI few years back but cant get him to answer the phone lately. He would be my...

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    I’d really like to do a 7mm-08 variant with a Carbon wrapped barrel @ 20”. I’m a Reloader exclusively and know what bullet and powder I want to shoot. I expect .25 MOA accuracy. This will be a 500yd hunting gun.

    Custom action with 3 - position safety?

    I do love a model 70 with the control feed and that 3 safety for hunting. It’s a shame more people don’t build on that platform.

    Long Range for beginners

    I don’t think I would wanna try to do long range with an 06 or a 7mag. Your shoulder gonna be killing you at the end of the day I think I just go buy me a 24-26”6.5 Creedmoor and send it. Them suckers will shoot a long way and they don’t have a whole lot of recoil.

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    Yeah, I’m pretty sure I’m gonna just pull the trigger for lack of a better phrase. I’ll buy that barrel next week and start the process. Now to just find a Gun Smith to do it.

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    I probably wouldn’t shoot 162s I really like that 140 grain Sierra boattail Hollow point game King that bullet shoots lights out and kills deer and hogs like a lightning bolt with RL- 16 or H4350 in every and I stress every 7/08 I’ve had and I’ve had a bunch of them in the last 10 years...

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    It’s funny you mention the 7 mm saw that dude that came up with that design is sorta close to me in the Texas panhandle not too far from West Texas where I live. I could just drive up there and drop it off and I seriously consider that but I’ve not 100% sold on it. I do want a 20 inch barrel...

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    I never heard of anyone doing barrel swaps on CA actions. I know its not a high end action but I already own it. Not being cheap but frugal if people have had good luck with them.

    Anybody ever build on a Christensen action?

    I believe I finally shot out my 243 Win. It is a Ridge line with the factory carbon barrel. I found a proof research .284 barrel locally cheap ($699) and thought about swapping barrels. After 3000+ hot rounds down the pipe on the 243. groups have gone from 1/2" to 3" of late. I really hate to...

    New to the 7mmPRC

    That the same exact book and data I’m using. I went and shot some H 1000 with those 197 just a few minutes ago and the speed is dismal in my opinion but I keep telling myself that’s almost a 200 grain bullet.
