Yeah unfortunately I own a couple boxes of the ABLR but do not own any Bergers...at this time. ;)

Any of you guys with the .308 210 LRAB's know what lot #'s you had that were successful and those that were not? Might save some of us some time, frustration, and barrel life.

For ballistic and terminal performance I really like the 115gr Nosler Ballistic Tip. I back it up with Retumbo now but H1000 had produced some really fine results as well. Both powders are great, I just seemed to see slightly less pressure signs with the Retumbo at comparable velocities.

I put a box through my .25-06. 1.5-2 moa groups. Hornady Custom with 117gr SST would shoot 1 moa. Now I reload with the same Berger VLDs and also Nosler Ballistic Tips and they'll shoot sub-moa all day. I'm a firm believer if you are wanting better than 1 moa of accuracy you should save your...

Exactly what the title says...Does anyone know where I can buy a Left Hand Bolt for a Savage Long Action with a Magnum Bolt Head? I have a left hand Savage 111 in .25-06 and want to get a 338 Edge barrel and a bolt to go with it to make a quick swap back and forth between calibers. Having a hard...

Awesome, thats good to know. And good question curtis.

Great articles guys! Keep the info coming!

I'm sorry can you explain what you mean by CRF? Thank you all for the suggestions, insight, and help thus far. I really appreciate all of your guys' comments.

Thanks for the info! So I went shopping for a new bolt and ran into what may be a bit of an issue...I'm left-handed (and so is my rifle) and I'm wanting to build a 338 Edge (338-300 RUM). I can't seem to find a Left Handed RUM bolt assembly. They have them in right hand. and they have other left...

The Roedale is actually where I got a little bit of "inspiration". Haha and I know its a little ugly but theres just something about it I like...and no my wife is not a fat chick and no she doesn't ride a moped. :D

I recently bought some round stock and turned it on a lathe to make sure it was truly round (round bar stock will more often than not have flat spots) and threaded it for a handle. So while I was at it I made a set of alignment rods as well. I don't know if you have access to a lathe, but if you...

I have a savage 111 topped with decent glass and would like to get another barrel to make it a switch barrel rifle. I'd like to get a 30" 338 Edge barrel + Muscle Brake. What all does it entail to have the barrel threaded and muzzle brake "timed"? I'm probably going to have a smith do the work...

So I've been doing a little work on my stock Savage 111 .25-06 to squeeze some more accuracy out of it. Finally got some decent optics on it (Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50mm Mil-dot) and decided I'd like to try a brake. The recoil is easily manageable without it, but I had the opportunity to do some...

I am a huge proponent of the .25-06. It is my current all around gun for deer sized game and smaller. When I first bought it, I ran the Hornady Light Mags with 117 BTSP and they shot well, but shortly after I switched to the Hornady Custom 117 SST. Started shooting much tighter groups and put...

Yup definitely available. I see them everytime I'm at Bass Pro and Cabelas. I would love to have it both in an AR platform and the FN FiveSeven pistol. Sweet little round.
