I understand that certain guns like certain bullets more than other, but its logical that by design, certain bullets will travel down the bore, exit the crown, and most of all fly through the air more consistently than others, and therefore be more accurate. Im curious to see what makes and...

I recently got a model 70 coyote (crpf action) in .270 WSM. I really like it. So far it shoots about 1/2" with my handloads, i did have the barrel floated and the trigger lightened. Only criticism of the action is the safety isnt as smooth as the classic actions. Its especially stiff going...

I also would reccomend something besides the game king. I have shot 3 texas hill country whitetail bucks(relatively small deer) with 150 gr. game kinds relatively slowly from a 30-06. They werefrom 50 to 150 yards and all pretty much broadside shots which were behind the shoulder in all cases...

Nothing that I know of is even close in BC to Lost River Ballistic Technoligies. I believe they offer a J-36 hunting bullet 100 gr over .5(maybe .54 something) amd a 90 gr close to or over .5 . They are solid copper. The problem with them is they are really expensive and Ive heard mixed...

After i shoot a box of new win 270 WSM brass in my model 70 they chamber with very little resistance(just alittle bit more than new). I can just barely feel the fired cases contact the inside of the chamber when i close the bolt. After I neck size them, even if ijust go about halfway down the...

First of all, what has been the normal barrel life of factory .270 WSM barrels? I have a win model 70 coyote with the factory heavy stainnless barrel, and I am shooting fairly hot non coated handloads and i want to know about how many rounds to expect out of this barrel. I never shoot it when...

That is probably possible for the price youre talking about. You can send the rifle to a custom barrel manufacturer and have a match grade stainless barrel installed and have the action trued(square receiver, lap lugs, ect.). Hart and Pac Nor are both reputible button rifled barrel...

I just got a Winchester Model 70 Coyote in .270 WSM and its a good all around long range hunting rig. Shoots really accurately especially for a pretty much factory rifle, and was reasonably priced. Its built on the Winchester model 70 CRPF action(matte blued), has a heavy stainless 24" barrel...

I know alot of yall hunt at long range, and alot of yall own extremely accurate rifles, but i just wanted to see what kind of accuacy yall felt was really necesary for a LR hunting rifle. To me, a solid 1 MOA rifle that will always put shots in an inch at 100 yards is pretty dang good. That...

Thanks for the responses, i hope my rep is as helpful as yours. My dad has sent this same pair of binoculars to them a couple years back due to the diopter adjustment broke and they gave some bullcrap that they had been dropped, which they had definately not, and charges us for the repairs and...

If its fun for him and he can do it alright, dont quit lettin him shoot big stuff, just dont have him sit down and shoot it a whole bunch, and probably dont put him in his own rifle that he needs to shoot a whole bunch and get really comfy with and have it be a big rifle. Good choice with the...

I shot and hunted with a 30-06 for several years, and have shot my dads 7mm STW quite a bit and can tell you for certain from experience that in guns of similar weight and no brakes(actually my dads STW is considerably heavier than my '06 was), the STW kicks ALOT more. Youre experience might be...

Re: I\'m pulling my hair out Are you trying to find a one peice or two peice base? When i bought my m70 coyote in 270 WSM, i bought a one peice leupold base for short action m70, but it was obviously too short and i just took it back. I bought regular 2 peice leupold bases for m70 and mounted...

This weekend i was riding around at night rabbit hunting and stoped to check out some deer in the headlights with my binoculars. Then I saw a jackrabbit and grabbed my .22. I guess i had put my binocs in the seat next to me and when i stepped out to shoot the rabbit i knocked them out. When i...
