    What am I doing wrong??

    So I was finally able to get back to the range and although i cannot single out what the culprit was, I was able to get a very decent group and sight in my rifle. I do not know if it was mental, physical or my rifle and components but I tried a little of everything suggested. I reloaded some...

    What am I doing wrong??

    I was actually thinking the exact same thing today, I haven't shot more than 20 rounds through it so never even considered it but I don't have much to lose giving it a try.

    What am I doing wrong??

    This is not the same load they used when testing and is the only one I have tried. I will be trying to replicate the load they used with the loads I will be building soon. I was trying to sight in the rifle so this is what I did, the first three round were to get on paper at 100 yards, the...

    What am I doing wrong??

    Im thinking this might be the problem. I did let it cool a couple of minutes between shots but being 90 degrees outside when I shot I don't think it was enough. I am going to pick up a torque wrench within the next couple of days and go over all the screws to make sure they are all set up...

    What am I doing wrong??

    I am thinking of getting a lead sled to try to take out the human factor as much as possible. Hopefully I can diagnose the problem as soon as possible. On a side note can anybody point me in the right direction to some basic marksmanship articles maybe I can see through reading them if I am...

    What am I doing wrong??

    The rifle is a Remington model 700, it does have a break. The scope is a Vortex Viper PST with vortex precision rings and a EGW base. I set it up about three weeks ago and made sure all the screws were tight. I bought the rifle a couple of years ago but never shot it, I have a hunting trip...

    What am I doing wrong??

    The last couple of weeks I have been trying to sight in/practice with my new 300 RUM but can't seem to get it there. I will shoot a group low and to the right and then correct for it, get one in the center and then the rest end up being high and to the left. What am I doing wrong because I doubt...

    The listing says they are new but are listed as used because they have fired 20 shots for the break in process.

    Seeking advice on custom rifle

    I settled for the 300 RUM because I thought it was a good overall caliber to hunt almost all species I could encounter plus offer good long range ballistics. I put this post to see if you guys thought the "custom" work was worth the extra money. I am however planning on getting a 308 in the...
