Is that a recommended rebarrel? I have heard on here that a lot of people prefer an intermediate or long action to do the rebarrel from a standard cartridge to a magnum, even if they are both short actions. Now is that because they can put longer bullets in, or due to the increased pounding of...

If he doesn't I will!!!

Yes MPBR is exactly what I am using. I have used this method of shooting for the past 20yrs using standard reticle scopes and MPBR has been a pretty good way of putting meat in the freezer. I just don't trust myself to judge holdover at longer distances for fear of a wounding shot, and so I...

Yes definitely, at 200yds I'm right around 3" high and at 300yds I am right around 3" low - It's a 7mmRM - On the BALLISTIC apps, after it gives you the data, what figures are you using to change the scope? Below is a screen shot for the app. Take the red line for instance showing trajectory...

For both yourself and Midwesthunter (who's already shown how well this gun can perform stock) here is a review done on sniper central of a stock SPS Varmint. And they also swapped our the factory stock and picked up 30% increase in accuracy with no other work. This is a solid platform...

Hello everyone, thank you for your time. I've been a long-time lurker here, trying to learn as much as possible. Now that I want to start longer range shooting (I've rarely needed to shoot at distances past 300yds). My hunting scopes have always been "set & forget" and I'd use hold-over and...
