I am hoping for some info on your opinion concerning the use of a 700 rem long action to build a new 300 norma. Some say u really need 338 lapua based action to protect yourself because of pressures. Others say the 300 ultra action opend up with a sako style extractor is just fine. Looking or...

I love pigman, my kids and i watch him every week, i too have been trying to get some info on that gun. i think he has both a 300 and a 338 version, he shoots 208 grain hornady amax. i think the advantage is that you can use a lapua action instead of the cheytac action and get similar...

A friend of mine just received some new 300 norma mag brass. and it got us thinking, we are both in the middle a 7mm build. i was wondering what you folks think the velocity difference would be between the 7 dakota and a 7-300 norma mag. shooting the new 195 grain bergers with a 26 inch...

Folks, i am currenlty having a .338 cheytac gun built, and i keep going back and forth in trying to decide between the two scopes listed above. do you have any advice on which way to go. The total MOA adjustment in the scope is not critical, i will not shoot past 1800 yards. some say you...

I shoot 300 rum also. if you get a pass through at 86 yards your bullet is to hard. we shot a mule deer last week at 300 yards with a 230 grain berger and both shoulders were mush, with know exit wound. i am a believer in no exit wound on game, i also tried the barnes, the copper is to hard...

i would love to see you shoot a 3 inch group at 700 yards off your backpack with a barnes bullet. let me know what state you are in and i will make the drive. barnes do not shoot, i am also a 300 rum shooter, and have never seen those bullets fly under .5moa in any 300 rum. try the 210 grain...

Shot our first mule deer with this bullet last week at 300 yards. my load is 90 grains of retumbo 15thousands of the lans. 3055fps out of a 28 inch barrel. the bullet performed perfectly.

Shooting 28 inch shilens with 1in9 twists, originally built for 240 matchking, but when i had one not open on a buck at 650 yards without expanding i started looking elsewhere. when i saw the GS posting by LTLR back in nov. i looked into the 177 because i have the right twist. i know i can push...

Long time, and Montana, we have shot the 177's out of two ultra's so far, and definatley on the lands seems to be the ticket, i couldn;t be any closer than 0.080 on one gun so i am having .125 taken off barrel. i also shot 104 grains of retumbo on the 177 and it was to much powder in case...

Here is some additional results of the GS 177. 104 grains of h1000 is giving me 3650fps in a 28 inch barrel. sounds way over max, but the bearing surface as you may know is ultra short plus those drive bands?? i am concerned about long range performance and expansion of this bullet. another...

MTRIFLEMAN, I JUST RECIEVED MY SHIPMENT OF GS 177, i too love the velocity and the ballistics. however, this bullet only shoots well against the lans, we have not had good luck off the lans. my gunsmith is shortening throat for me currently. also the 338 bullet i think will be in the 250 grain...

Does anyone know if Hornady is going to release a 225 A-max, and second when do we expect that the 230-235 grain berger will .30 cal will be released. thanks, Chris

Bryan, what is the form factor of the 210 berger as compared to the jlk210lbt. thanks, chris

what case is this 375 tejas built off of and what type of velocity are you getting on the 260 accubond and how long of barrel on gun. thanks,

LR3, i hope to have a 375 snipe tac built in 2011, in regards to the 240 matchking out of my ultra at 3100 fps, they do not open on animals past 400 yards. i pencil pierced a mule deer in and out with one, and watched this big buck walk off. the jacket is to thick on the 240. hope this...
