    Hornady outfitter 6.5prc 130 cx

    Hi all, just writing to see if anyone has tried this new ammo from Hornady. I got a hold of 2 boxes recently and tested it out in 2 different rifles, a Tikka ctr and a Howa 1500. The velocity number seemed alright for factory ammo, the Tikka averaged 2912fps with an extreme spread of 36 over 10...

    Thinking of buying a lathe, how hard is it to chamber a rifle?

    New Hornady outfitter 270 wsm

    I recently got a hold of a few boxes of Hornady outfitter with the new 130gr CX bullet for 270wsm and thought I'd share my 2 cents. I tried the original outfitter last year with the 130gr GMX and was less than impressed. In the 3 rifles I had at the time chambered in 270 wsm only one of them...

    CLR and Chrome Moly Barrels

    Howa Carbon

    I talked with a warranty rep at Howa/Legacy about it. He said because I’m in Canada they can’t help me and gave me contact info for the shop that handles their warranty stuff in Canada. I called that shop and had a good chat with the owner. I sent him the pictures while we were on the phone and...

    Howa Carbon

    I received a Howa HS carbon Fiber in 6.5prc a few weeks ago. It took about a year to get it from the time I ordered it (I’m in Canada) From the reviews I’ve watched and read it sounds like Howa is making their own carbon fibre barrels in house. Took it to the range a few days ago. The result...

    Federal Premium Berger Hybrid hunter 270wsm

    Greetings all! I recently bought a box of Federal premium Berger Hybrid hunter 140gr for my 270wsm. I was pretty excited to give it a try as the published ballistics are about as good as you can get for box ammo in 270wsm however the performance at the range was less then steller. 2-2.5 MOA was...
