What state(s) do you hunt big game in most often? Texas What is your primary long range hunting cartridge? 300 Jarrett -------------------------------------- Regarding your primary long range hunting cartridge choice above: Do you use factory ammunition? No If so, which brand and load do...

I live in the Keller SouthLake area.

I have always just used a 700 action. That price sounds a little high to me as well. I am currently having another gun built by Dave Tooley and was unaware that he builds his own custom actions. That being said they are 725.00, and I am going to try one out. Should be able to report...

I have only had one rifle with a muzzle break, and removed my brake when cleaning the barrel. As far as accuracy goes it should not have any effect. Take Care SC

Thanks for the help, I'll let you know what I finally decide to go with. Take Care SC

I have never owned a NF, nor for that matter have I even seen one in person. The closest dealer to the Dallas Fort Worth area is 78 miles away. I have always used Leopold’s for my guns. After reading several posts here on this site, doing some searches, and talking to my gun smith I have...

I found a source in the Dallas Fort Worth area that still has some Federal 215 large magnum rifle primers. I just picked some up this morning, they have 2 bricks left...that is all they have in regards to primers. If anyone is interested I am more than willing to give them the name and...

Just curious, I did a search for Talley quick release rings and found very little. I have been told that they were one of the best in the business. I do own a set and so far I have to say they have preformed as advertised. Am I correct in assuming since I found very little that no one uses...

Thanks for the response. Now I'm going to stick my neck out again. In looking at some of the "long range" shoting vedios it looks to me like no one is wearing ear muffs. So i guess its safe to asume in hunting situations its better to use standard ear plugs for protection. The reason I ask...

Guys, Great thread. I have a 300 Jarrett that I was thinking of putting a break on; seems the older I get the less i like recoil. The question\concern I have in regards to adding a break is the noise level. Granted I understand you can't always have your cake & eat it too. I also do not...

If anyone wants CCI large rilfe I can give them the name of the shop I talked too, they have 2 bricks (2000). I would be happy with 200 Federal 215's right now. You can bet when I get a chance I will stock up on them.gun)

I've tried as well to find Federal 215 large mag rifles primers and had no luck. I thought I was home free yesturday when after spending more than and hour and a half calling all over the state of Texas, I found 2000 large rifle mag primers in Waco. I asked the guy a couple of times if they...

I have a 300 Jarrett, built by Dave Tooley. I had another one that I sold to a buddy of mine last year. I have just started working on the load for the one built by Tooley. I' do not remember the twist, I told Tooley I was shooting 165 grain bullets, plan on using Nosler AccuBonds. The...
