I've had an early release of the 110BA in 338LM for a few years. I load my own using Lapua cases, and shoot 300 SMKs. Shooting from bags on a rest at a 1000 yard target put 5 round in a 7" circle first time shooting at that range. The rifle is awesome, very accurate, and the recoil is less...

I have a Savage 110BA also. Extremely accurate with 300 SMK's, 91 gr N570, and OAL 3.720", 2.8545" to the ogive. Winchester LRM primers. 100 yard group .38", but was a little gusty, managed to hit 4" clay pigeon on 3rd shot at 1000 yds. Other two shots really close. Good glass helps - 5-25...

I talked to one guy on the phone, and he didn't think they had any, but the boss came on and said they had 2 bricks. I'd check with them tomorrow if I were you. Can't believe they sold both bricks between 1300 and 1700, though it's certainly possible. A little deeper digging might help. Good...

The phone number is 276-628-6249. I think the place is called Maloney's. He's not open on Sunday. I'd call him first thing tomorrow. I'm in Morgantown, WV, and Abingdon is just a skosh too far to drive, even for the 215Ms. Chip

A guy in Abingdon, VA has 2000 215M's as of 1300 today. Unfortunately, that's too far for me, and he won't ship them. His number is 276-628-6249. If you buy them, please consider selling me a couple hundred. Thanks, Chip

My local dealer just called me to tell me that he'd finally gotten a new 110BA from the distributor. He's about a month late for me. I found one already. He's got the rifle available, and he's looking for about $1700. That is a better deal than I got on mine by a good bit. If you're...

Re: Rem 700 LSS .338 RUM Would you sell without the scope and rings? What's the recoil like in that light a rifle? Thanks

Likewise...I'd like pictures of the 338 LI. Don't need a scope. What kind of base? Thanks.

The iPhone, believe it, or not, has some terrific ballistics programs available. I'd recommend the full-fledged Bullet Flight program. It does the whole 9 yards. It provides milrad data, or MOA, and you can calibrate it to the bullet so that the proper number of clicks, depending on the...

the right hand twist of the barrel imparts, to the bullet, a slight drift to the right. A left twist does the opposite. the greater the twist rate, the more drift. Coriolus, which is the result of the earth moving under the bullet as it flies, will also cause a bullet to drift to the right...

Offsets northern hemisphere coriolus.

Good thought. Thanks, and Semper Fi. Chip

Greetings all, I'm shopping for a good long-range tactical/hunting scope. I like the scaling benefits of a FFP scope, and that took me in the direction of Premier Heritage. However, they are bigtime steeply priced. If a fellow is going to drop that kind of cash, the scope would have to be...
