    Range finder to replace Kilo2000

    Lost my range finder today on an antelope hunt....killed a buck but lost the RF between the shot and getting to the animal, I looked for it for an hour but no luck. Really liked that range finder it was simple and I had the RRS arca mount on it. It was starting to have trouble hitting more...

    SOLD Proof SS 6.5CM Accuracy International Barrel 27mm

    This came with a rifle I bought from Mile High, as far as I can tell it has zero rounds through it. There is no evidence of carbon, copper, or wear, minor superficial scratches on the exterior, breech threads are perfect. I sent the bore scope through it and it looks new. Has an Area 419...

    Trued MV not even close to Chrono?

    Is it common to have a very large difference in trued MV and Chronoed velocity when you really push velocity? I have been shooting 122gr Cayuga's from my 6.5 SS at 3390fps average from 20 shots measured with my labradar. I shot data verification out to 750 and to get my curve to match my...

    Sav 12 LRP DBM Long Range Precision 6.5?

    Thinking about picking one up for a medium range target (800-1000) rifle and an antelope rifle for a retirement gift for my dad. My brother and I were going to build him a rifle but the LR Precision has what we were going to build anyways. If we go with the Savage we will have it dipped, and...

    325 WSM necked to 300 WSM?

    Shooters Pro Shop is giving free shipping today and they have 325 WSM Nosler brass for $35 per 25. I ordered 50 pieces so I could neck it down for my 300wsm target rifle. I would just buy Norma or Nosler 300wsm brass but they are pretty proud of it. Winchester has worked well for me in the...

    Hunting & Fishing P-dogs with the 6mm AI

    Went out p-dog shooting one night after work this passed week, took my 6mm AI and 222 Rem Mag AI. The 6mm AI was the only rifle to see any action. Loaded with 87gr Hornady HP's moving about 3400fps I killed dogs from 150-800+ yards. I JFK'ed this one at 178 with a cold bore....truck in...

    Time of Flight 4.05 seconds.....

    4.05 seconds, according "Shooter" my ballistics app, for the 208gr A-max to travel the <span style="font-weight: bold">2163 YARDS</span> to hit my steel plate. This is the furthest I have ever accurately shot....I use accurately as a loose term. I only landed 50% of my shots once I "found"...

    Eberlestock Gunrunner or LoDrag

    Im looking at these two packs and Im not sure which way to go. Primary use will be hunting. I set up a camp and hike in deep most days so I will be using it for a day pack. My normal day pack is a Camelback Mule, which is small but keeps me from over loading with extra stuff that I dont need...

    270 WSM to 300 WSM?

    Im not sure why but Norma 270wsm is 1/2 the price of Norma 300wsm. Is it a simple neck up? I have been having pretty good luck with Winchester brass but its on its 7th loading and even after annealing im getting split necks.

    Range Report Poor mans Lapua?

    Any thoughts on using a 338 win mag with a longer barrel for long range shooting? Im thinking about setting up a 28" 338 win mag barrel on my Times Precision right bolt left port action, which currently has a Kreiger 300wsm barrel on it. The port is long enough that I can get an empty 338 win...

    Aftermarket Remington 700 Trigger?

    I have a couple Remington 700s an older 1970's ish and one I bought new in 2010. The trigger on the older rifle is amazing and consistant breaking at 2 pounds 10 ounces. The trigger on the new 700 is junk, the mark x (I thought) is suppose to be fully adjustable but I cant get it lower than 5...

    26.0gr of BL-C(2), wolf small rifle magnum primer, 32gr Nosler Ballistic, working on fire forming LC 08 brass, I have to snap the barrel shut a couple times with some force because I have to much of a crush fit for fireforming but it works. The wife went with me to the desert to look for...

    300wsm and 208s?

    Im looking for some high velocity loads for my 300 WSM using the 208's and would really like input. 2900-2950fps from my 24" barrel would be great. My current go to load is a 200gr SMK at 2840fps. Im using H4831sc but I know I will have to go with a different powder to get that velocity. Any...
