Has it been re-finished? Factory buttpad?

Whats the barrel length? Weight?

I shot a cow last year in late muzzle loader season. It started out with a foot of snow on the ground and made for easy stalking. I shot her a mile from the truck around noon. When I shot it, it was snowing real good and then turned to rain as I began to dress it out on the side of the hill...

You say we only need to pack it 800 yards? I'd have a 33XC in a chassis!

20" 7 rem mag. 180 hybrid @ 2940

Are you wanting to buy off the shelf ammo or are you reloading with the 175 partition? I haven't heard of that combo yet and as someone else stated, the PRC wasn't built for a bullet like that. If that's the bullet you must have then I'd pick up a rem mag and call it good. Rem mag brass is...

Here's a clear picture of what's going on. Now what are your thoughts? Can this be fixed by re-chambering?

I couldn't roll with it. Now that I know there's an imperfection, I'm not even going to continue load development. It's never under 3/4 min, now I know why.

Hi there- I was cleaning my 300Rum today and used a teslong to see how it was looking. That's when I discovered partial rifling grooves that travels all the way through the freebore to the neck. These grooves are at 10oclock and 3 o'clock. The rest of the freebore is without the rifling and...
