    7mm SLR?

    The SAW does seem to be practical. I’ll take better than 308 performance and use existing brass over pressure on the ragged edge.

    Remington actually did it...

    I looked at one at SWFA. Pretty good package. Retail was just under $1K. They are also doing a 5R model in 6.5 creed. I was pretty tempted. Now if FN would just give us the FN SPR in a 6.5. And BTW FN, make it chrome lined.

    Dumb question of the day >>30 creedmoor

    I'll look into it. Just wondering if the higher BC bullets would outweigh lack of speed.

    Dumb question of the day >>30 creedmoor

    Years ago I bought out a Sierra dealer who was going out of business. I have a pile of Sierra 190s, 200gr spritzer (strangely very high Bc), and I think 220s. I thought I might do a 30/06 or 300 short mag one day and would eventually use them. I am doing a 6.5creedmoor project so I have the...

    New rifle dilema, advice and feedback appreciated

    Currently have an older (probably 7-9 yrs old) Rem 5R in 308 that has been great, still shoots .5 MOA, and has is a good all around rifle. It is time to finally get back into shooting and upgrade to 6.5 Creedmoor. I am debating which route to go. Hopefully you guys can offer some advice and...

    Armalite AR-10 and Armalite AR-10 (Eagle Arms)

    At one time Armalite uppers only came as complete rifles. Eagle arms was a "lesser" line and you could get eagle lowers and eagle complete rifles. Armalite lowers had a better warranty. CL Barrels and certain parts were not used on the eagle rifles. I had a few and they were fine the...

    6.5 creedmoor SPR Build

    I am looking to build a similar 6,5 ?? Upper for my armalite. I have a .308 upper already and I think it will round out the set for multiple purposes while maintaining ammo options. Cool setup!! Nice equipment and good shooting. One thing you might consider is to drag that thing through a...

    Rifle Scopes 10x Horus type reticle

    I have a 10x SS on my AR10. I would like to have an HDMR with the H59 reticle. I like 10x for general use on my 18" AR10. I hunt coyotes, deer, and hogs as well as local competitions. Just a thought. Something with the value and utility of a SS with an H59type reticle would make a...

    Rifle Scopes Swfa scopes, iphone ballistic app?

    I have both and they work fine together. Strelok is also a good app. It has a few features that I like better than the Knights Armament. Another thing to consider is a chronograph. You can estimate FPS and compare app data to actual drop data at various distances to estimate bullet speed...

    Coyote Caliber

    Long shots are rare where i live but My longest coyote shot was at 285 yds. After about 300 guessing a range starts getting hard for me. That's where preRanging landmarks and knowing your reticle and drops comes in handy. Damn things. They never show up where you expect and they never stay...
