Most of the discussion here seems to revolve around the 300 and 338 calibers. Are those the best and most practical calibers for long range hunting. What about 348, 358 and 375? Does there comes a point where you just can't push the really heavy bullets fast enough to be effective out to...

It seems to me that 300 yards is stretching it for a ladder test (just my opinion). The goal is to determine the most accurate load and I feel that at that range, there are too many other variables present. I would shoot the ladder at 100 (what I've always done), pick a load, and then take it...

I will mostly be punching paper with it. I intend to use it in the field for some long range work but not out to 1k. I think a BR action is probably a little over the top, so I'll probably end up with a Stiller Predator. My toy right now is a win model 70 coyote in 243wssm. It's waiting on a...

I'm new here guys, so forgive me if I'm in the wrong spot, but I was wondering what yall's opinions were on a custom action. Specifically, I would like to know if you think that a custom action from one of those fancy action manufacturers is superior to a "trued" factory action (like a remmy or...
