If you want to improve the .308 get a 300 WSM.

I've had pretty good luck using gunbot.net. It is a web crawler that searches various supplier websites for ammo, components, etc., and complies what it finds into a searchable list. Hit it early in the morning because stuff moves fast.

I have a lazy eye. The optic nerves on my right eye didn't fully develop. I can see out of the eye but not very well. The brain just turns it off and uses the left eye. I shoot rifles left-handed and own mostly auto-loaders or pumps as they are easier for me to shoot. A few years ago I...

Looks like you’re an inch right at 100, that will be 4 inches at 400.

You can try looking here: www.gunbot.net. Ther site surveys different suppliers and compiles lists you can search, sort on age or price. If you see a new listing you have to act fast. They don't do unicorns pink or otherwise

This is my go to website to find ammo when there is a run on it: http://www.gunbot.net/ammo/rifle/223/

Does anyone make a 20 round detachable box magazine kit for a 300WSM BAR?

I have bifocals and shoot much better with a scope. I can still shoot pretty well with iron sights provided the rear one is a peep sight. I can’t focus on it but I can find the center of it. I focus on the front post and put it on the target.

Thoughts on rifle weight and hunting? Rifle heavy. Hunting hard, Beer good. Camp far.

43.5grs. of IMR-4064 between a CCI 200 primer and an 168gr. AMAX. I consider this my benchmark load as it gives me MOA or better in all of my rifles, 18 to 22". Easy Peasy. If this doesn't work for you I'd start looking at the rifle as the cause.

The 308 will never die. It will just live on as the 7.6 Creedmore.

you need to get out and shoot at 17, 65 & 100 degrees. When the relative humidity is 20%, 90% or in between. When the wind is 10 knots in your face or 3 knots coming from the your right. When it’s snowing or when it’s raining. If you’re above or below your target. All the while writing it...

Me too, top of page 6.

I use a 460 Rowland kit on my 1911 with hard cast bullets. It’s pretty close to 44Mag power. Should be more than enough for black bear and the cougars we have in western Oregon.
