I need to raise some money for other custom projects, so I am selling one of my 300 Win Mags. Here are the details: - Blueprinted/Trued RH Rem 700 action - Tuned factory trigger - McMillan Classic stock - Black - 13.5" LOP (pillar and glass bedded) - Badger recoil lug - 24" Broughton 5C barrel...

.270 WSM in 22\" barrel I was just curious as to how efficient a .270 WSM would be in a 22" barrel. Most factory rifles that I have seen chambered for .270 WSM have a 23"-24" barrel. Would there be a lot of performance loss between a 22" and 24" barrel (all other things being equal)? Thanks...

I was considering getting some of the Talley lightweight one-piece mounts for a new rifle. I was curious if anyone here has tried them, and if so, what their thoughts were on them. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the help! I was just using the Bullet Path information and determining the yardage for the specific load I was shooting. For example, for the Burris Ballistic Plex the second line down represents -18.0" with a 200 yard zero (they label this 400 yds). I just used the ballistics...

I now nothing about Mil-Dot reticles and was wondering if someone could help with a question. I have a Burris scope with the Ballistic Plex reticle. With the scope, Burris provided information telling how low each of the lines were if the gun were sighted in at 100 or 200 yards. Using one of...

I was looking at my February sales flyer from Midway USA and saw a crosshair leveling tool by Wheeler Engineering. I looks like it has a level for both the rifle and the scope. Has anyone used one of these when mounting a scope? Are they any good? Thanks!

Kirby, I would guess the groups are 1" - 1.5" depending on how close the first 2 shots are. I have never really fired more than 3 shots in a row. Usually I fire 3 shot with a rifle (with about 30-45 seconds between shots) and the I switch to another rifle. The barrel is .657" muzzle OD, so...

Fiftydriver, I was just curious as I have a Rem 700 LVSF in 7mm08 that I would like to make a little more accurate. It always puts the 1st couple shots really close, but the 3rd shot always seems to be about 1/2 - 3/4 inch from them. The barrel only has about 40 rds through it so far (and I...

I am going to have a rifle re-crowned, and I was just curious how much a barrel is shortened when you have it re-crowned. Thanks!

I am getting ready to send my .30-06 rifle off to be rebarreled to a .25-06. I plan on using 110 - 120 grain bullets, and I was wondering if anyone had input on the following questions: 1) What barrel length would you recommend? I was planning on going with a 23" or 24" barrel. 2) What...

I am considering buying an older model 700 ADL in 6mm Remington. I do not know much about the 6mm Remington (and I can not find a lot of info on it). I was wondering if these were a short-action cartridge. My friend has a H-S precision sporter stock that he had on a .308 Win. Would this...
