Honestly, Drop the 300wsm, go with a custom built 30-06 with a match grade barrel no less then 24" i would recommend 25" if weight is a concern, get it fluted and put a choate tactical stock, its aluminum bedded and light. and only costs 250 or so, if ur military its cheaper. Looks alot like a...

well noted...thank you for ur comment. I think im learning that with precision rifles, perhaps i would want him to take his time, build it nice and slow, without stress to give me back a true rifle...gun)

ok thanks... Im sure if i did mention for it to be done now then he would have, just took me back that he said 3-4 days.. is this the usual in rebuilding fire arms? barrels, stocks, etc. I currently have a 7x57 interarms mark x that i would like rebarrelled and chambered in something...

yeah, he probably is busy, but even so, four holes? he doesnt rebarrel guns either?? but it says "gunsmith"? anyway, just a small shop i stumbled upon and i wanted to give it some business..finally its not windy, and where im from its windy ALL THE TIME, 40 plus.. so, i just wish it wouldnt take...

So, when I got my rifle rebarraled i didnt get my old barrel back...My buddy got his rifle rebarreled as well, requested it back, and never got it back, I needed a cheek piece put on, only four holes needed to be drilled then finished, he asked how soon i wanted it back, i told him asap (meaning...

I have the mark4 steel base mount 20 moa.. I am zero'd at 100 and im using a 30-06 with 208 Amax w/ 53 grains of RL-19. MV is not super fast, but most accurate. I also shoot the 178 Amax's same load of 53 grains of RL-19. MV is 2600 give or take a few fps. I use those bullets because it closely...

Hey man, thanks a lot...appreciate it...:)

Well, thank you for answering my questions. I personally didn't notice the spelling of "reticule" a few buddies did and they passed on the idea of us all purchasing one. I, however am still interested because i can punch out to a grand and stay on 1 rotation, from what it seems i cant really...

I get also that the word "reticule" come from Reticle as u explained... but if clearly, reticle is in fact, with the first definition a measuring tool for optics or aiming purposes, why on this green earth would a company choose "reticule" when it has a secondary definition with the meaning...

they both are not correct..and "i did research it" not extensively, just common dictionary. Reticule is a noun, meaning..small net, or mesh bag..example..a womans draw string bag used as a carryall. Reticle is also a noun. used to describe a scale on transparent material (as in an optical...

So, I've never of heard of IOR Valdada Scopes. I recently stumbled upon one when looking for FFP scopes. I posted the listing on facebook asking if anyone knows anything about them; one of my buddies said, "they misspelled reticle, pass.." i looked up both meanings and indeed they are wrong! Do...

WOW, nice groups.. I was referring to the 30-06 with mag primers? This is my set up.. Remington 700 30-06 Rebarreled with a 24" shilen stainless steel match grade bull barrel, blue printed etc. 1,10 twist fitted for a suppressor. aluminum & glass bedded. stock trigger toned down to 2.75...

Good Morning everyone. I have a shilen Stainless Steel Match grade BBL 24" I was curious to know what coating(S) I can apply to the barrel so that I can spray paint it without the paint running off? gun)

Use a mag primer? why exactly? Is pressure going to be an issue with it? Sounds like an interesting idea... lightbulb

Absolutely, thank you for your help:)
