A buddy and I have had pretty good luck with Zero Delta.

I bet it would work just fine. I have shot 230lb mulie with the 140eldm in the 6.5cm. Watched my brother in law roll over a couple mulies and whitetail with them. One was about 260lbs, bullet didn’t exit but was under the skin on the opposite side and it’s vitals were jello. I have shot some...

I bought one in 7 mm mag when Gander Mountain was going out of business. After the sale and the rebate I got the gun for about $400. I bought it planning to use it to resell or as the base for a new build. I decided to sell it but before I did I bedded the recoil lug and put a few boxes of...

I don’t hang or skin or gut. I lay them on the tailgate cut the from neck down the spine to the back side of the hind quarter and peel hid over the hind quarter and over the front shoulder. Take out the shoulders, hindquarters, blackstraps, and tenderloins. Then I will leave them on ice 1-2...

I have read and seen enough reviews now I am pretty confident that the bergara b-14 will fit Rem 700 stocks.

Nice

Well pretty much as the tittle states. Which barrel contour would be the smallest you would have fluted? #5, #4, #3? I want a lightweight 24”-26” barrel but I don’t want to lose to much rigidity and accuracy. I am not looking for a rifle/barrel to take to the range and shoot all the time so...

Is it a Rem 700 action clone?

Does anyone know if anybody makes aftermarket stocks for the bergara b-14 hunter rifles? I can’t seem to come up with much online.

I bought one in 223 about 7 years ago. It is a sub MOA rifle all day. I have ran it pretty hard prairie dog hunting a couple times in New Mexico at least 300 rounds in an afternoon. It held up and stayed accurate. I wanna say the furthest I have shot it was 400 yds and it’s sub MOA at that range...

Thanks for the input. Anybody have one in 7mm rem mag?

I have the action but it is not trued yet. My neighbor is a retired gunsmith/machinists/gunsmith school instructor. So my gunsmithing bills are pretty cheap.

Isn’t the Tikka t3 superlite and lite models 6-6.5 from the factory anyhow?

I was looking for under 7lbs and close to 6lbs action/barrel/stock. I don’t mind have to let the barrel cool. I don’t plan on it being and everyday shooter or range queen. It will be one for spot and stalk hunts and that’s probably it.

I was looking at getting a Browning Xbolt Western Hunter or Hells Canyons Speed. I was wondering if any of you guys here had one or spent some time behind one and could give me some good insight on them. Thanks!!
