    LR on a Short Action?

    Thanks for the replies, I have been looking at the 6.5x47 Lapua & 260 Rem since they have been brought up. I see that Lapua is now making 260 brass. I am curious why nobody mentioned the 6.5 Creedmoor, seems to be very close to both other rounds. If I was to use this for hunting, long range...

    New XP Project

    Yep bought the barrel off of Ernie, ordered a McMillan stock and then sent it off to Greg Tannel for accurizing. My XP is down right now, I sent the Leupold 2.5x8 off to Spralins to be refinished in Matte Black to match the rest of my XP, that gloss blue just got to me. Like the 7.82 Patriot...

    New XP Project

    The 1-n-10 is a good twist as it will allow you to try some of the longer VLD type bullets. There are a lot of good bullets available in .308 I have been trying several of Bergers VLD's from 155 to 210 and really like them. As hshunter said you might want to check with xphunter concerning the...
