I have a good friend that killed his first 8-10 bulls with a 25-06 because it's all he had. It's certainly not ideal . . . he now shoots a 300 RUM and Berger 210's. Bang . . . Flop. I'd also vote for the .270, provided that it's a shooter. If you can't trust its accuracy, it's a spear...

Awesome Replies everyone. It's going to be a very fun process.

I have a Rem 700 Long Action that I'm considering cannibalizing and building off of. This will be a long process, acquiring parts as funds become available, I'm thinking 2 years, maybe more, we are building a house. This will be for my Wife and Kids (when they get old enough). I want your...

Disclaimer: I have zero experience with this action, and I don't know anyone that does. For a company as large as Remington and with as much to lose, I don't think they'd just throw something out there and hope for the best. If they didn't learn from the humongous recall that they went...

When will the 264 WM be done? When do we get to see range reports and pics for both?

I missed it . . . what caliber is it? Very cool, that's a lot of brass and projectiles to load. :-) Get to it, so we can see range results!!! :-)

Thanks Bryan, that's a perfect Cliff's Notes for me. I appreciate it.

Thanks guys, I'll read Bryan's article. I appreciate the replies.

Can someone please give me the Cliff's Notes for the two different variations of Ballistic Coefficient (G1 vs. G7)? What's the deal, why two different measures? Advantage to one over the other? Thanks Guys.

Nice, looks like a winner!

Thanks Guys, I've actually not seen one of those before, looks much better than what I Have seen. I'll do some more research to make sure, but I think I could live with a Triad.

Do you guys have any preferred cheek weld options (to raise up from stock)? I don't think that I want to use a sleeve unless you all know of a really good one. What do you guys use? Links and/or pics would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hunting obviously, but also Dirt Biking, Mtn Biking and Camping.

Some really good replies here. Thanks Everyone. I'm going to shoot my new toy tomorrow, I'll post results. :-)
