    Can 308 do everything you need a rifle to do under 600 yards?

    If I had to pick a "do it all" round it would be my 300wm, and there wouldn't even be a close 2nd. That said, and while by no means my favorite round, the 308 is capable of taking any north American animal. 600yrd though, I'm my opinion, is pushing it for anything larger than a mule deer. I...

    Savage 110 Reliable? Weaknesses?

    I've had a few Savage rifles, from 22 mag to 7rum, currently have 3 in my safe. I wouldn't hesitate to take any of them anywhere in the world.

    What rifle to get.

    Thanks for sharing your story, I am also a quad. Car accident almost 30 years ago. Luckily, I am an incomplete and have very good use of my upper body and am able to load my own ammo. I came up with a small bracket mounted under my seat where I can mount a slightly modified Bogshot Treepod...

    Bullet puller? What do you have?

    I have a Hornady press mounted collet puller. I tried a kinetic one once; never again. And I don't have enough strength in my hands anymore to use a grip and pull.

    Looking for a New Gun

    With you given budget, Bergara in 6.5PRC or 7Rem would be my choice.

    Record are based off of net scores. The one exception was the Buckmasters scoring system. No deductions, and no spread was added in. It was nothing official, and never caught on. I believe it's obsolete now.

    The 168gr Berger is more than capable of putting a muley down at 600yds.

    7/08 AI

    I have a Rem. model 7 in 7/08 that I would like to re-barrel to an AI. This will be predominantly a hunting rifle, with possibly an occasional trip to the range. I was thinking a 20" standard barrel will a break. I live a couple of hours from Bartlein, so I was thinking of going through then...

    New bullet/load for 300WM?

    I am planning a WY muley hunt next fall and thought about working up a new load combo for my Savage110fp 24" heavy barrel. For WI whitetail I've been using 165g Serria GK's over 73.5g of H4831 the last few seasons and am more than pleased this load. As long as I've done my part it's hit...
