JD, what about the 6.5-06 AI? It looks pretty impressive in the reloading charts. Wouldn´t that work pretty well with 24" barrel?

Thanks for the replies guys, really apreciate them. JD, I haven´t read much about the 284 win. Do you know what velocities I can get with it in 24” barrel and how is it recoil wise? I must admit that I´m not much into the ballistics of the various cartridges so I would like to know what...

Hi, I´m considering rebarreling a Rem 700 in 30-06 into a 6.5x284. The rifle will be used for hunting and practice. My weight aim is around 7 ¾ lbs, similar to Rem 700 CDL. Anyhow I´m not sure on how long the barrel should be. I think I´m not willing to go for any longer than 24” sporter...

Charles you are probably right, I looked back on their website and there it says the Lazzeroni is available for Remington STYLE actions. Must admit though I dont know if the Savage action is classed as a Remington style action or not Anyone care to educate me...

Yep, the Lazzeroni does indeed look very nice. Only problem is that it´s not available for Savage actions

Hello gents, I was wondering if you could share your opinions on what´s your favorite/most comfortable stock for a light weight hunting rifle. I want to replace the factory stock of a Savage rifle in 7mm-08. It will be used for both deer and fox hunting in open landscape so most shoots will...

Thanks for the reply. I´m a bit of a greenhorn in these matters so I would like to know which you recommend 1 or 2 piece base and also which is superior mounting system dual dovetail or weaver type and if both systems would work on a LH Rem 700 short action? Thanks

Hello gents, I´m getting an Left handed Remington 700 VSF in .308Win in the nex few days. I already have a Swarovski PH 6-24x50 with 30mm tube that will go on top of it. Since I would like to get into long range shooting and the scope has limited internal MOA I was thinking about getting a...

Was doing a bit more ranging today with my Leica LRF 900 and the longest distance I managed to range was 999 meters that is 1092 yards and the Leica 900 is supposed to have a maximum range of 874 yards!!!

I have a Leica LRF 900 scan that is supposed to have maximum range 874 Yds. I have it set to meters. When I was ranging the other day it ranged a white house at 977m!!!! which is 1068 yards!!! I swear this is the truth. Once it even ranged other part of the same building at somewhere between...

Hello jimm and thanks for the answer. I had pretty much decided to get the .270 win but just wanted to get the opinion of others more experienced shooters. After reading your post I´ll definatly go for it. Thanks again. jonj

Hello guys I´m a left handed shooter from Iceland. After searching for a long time I´ve managed to find three left handed Tikka Whitetail hunters: a .270 win, a 25-06 and a 7mm-08. The rifle will mostly be used for paper punching from 100 to 500m, if I manage to hit anything at that range...

Gents, I want to buy a used left handed Tikka or Sako action, or the whole rifle if you prefer to sell it that way. I don´t care about what condition the stock and barrel are in. 6.5x55 is my preferred caliber, but will consider anything. My email is: [email protected]
