    Sako A7

    My daughter (24yrs old) came for a visit yesterday. She opened a gun case and it had a Sako A7 longrange roughneck pro in 7mm mag, topped with a VX-3 4.5-14 leupold....Needless to say, I was shocked. I asked if she would give it to me, she said "No", I asked her to sell it to me, she said...

    264 Win Mag Model 70 XTR?

    I will be looking at a Winchester Model 70 XTR in 264 Win Mag this weekend. Not too familiar with the gun (I've never been a Winchester guy), but most Winchesters i've been around h.ave been great functioning rifles (yes, even the model 670). I have never owned a 264 win mag before either. So...

    6mm remington

    As far as I can tell it was made in 1980. It is the first ADL that i've seen in 6mm. I see a lot of BDL's, 788's and Ruger 77's in 6mm, but this it the first ADL.

    240 weatherby

    OK....I put a Vortex Viper on the Vanguard last night. Mounted it into Burris Tactical rings. I will be shooting some factory 100 grain sp ammo out of it. Weatherby lists it at 3400 fps, soo it should be interesting. When I had the Pentax on it, it shot the ammo into .52-.97 3 shot groups...

    240 weatherby

    Thank You....I will check out the Bushnell Elite Tactical. It is refreshing to actually have your question answered on a forum instead of people going off on a tangent on what you are "supposed" to have. I am looking at a Vortex Viper that a friend has, so that is within the realm of...

    What are the advantages of a .25-06?

    Yes it will do it...But the 300 wsm will do it better. I don't know what rifle your 25-06 is, but the heavier bullets that you can use with the 300 will hold better downrange. Now I am not as experience at shooting those kinds of ranges as some of these people on this forum are, but a good...
