Handle a Ruana before you buy one to see whether you like it or not or make sure you can send it back for a refund. For my money they have an awful handle which is far too square and block-like.

At the price you're looking at why don't you phone up Bladegallery.com and chat to Daniel or Drew about what your requirements are. They have a large inventory of nice knives, they are very knowledgable, and you can check out the knives online. Even better, if you don't like it when it arrives...

What kind of price range are you thinking of ? If money is of little concern I'd buy a Bill Burke. His knives are functional works of art and hold an edge like no other. James Rodebaugh also makes a very nice knife at half the price of a Burke.

Three questions need to be answered. Do you want a knife made from stainless or high carbon steel? Do you want a custom or factory knife? Fixed blade or folder? Around the price you quoted I'd choose a Ray Kirk Medicine Blade. He's an ABS Mastersmith, the knife is hand forged 52100 and will do...

I like the Game Kings too as they are super accurate out of my Cooper. What load did u settle on, mine is 44.8gns of H4831sc?

I'm a big fan of handmade knives so my choice would be a Bill Burke Pronghorn. They truly are functional works of art with the emphasis on functional. You will not believe what a knife like this can do. It's a little like when you get your first nice rifle lol! Unfortunately they command a...

Thanks for the info. I didn't expect it to be quite that far so I'm pleasantly suprised by my performance. I'll try to borrow a rangefinger in future just to see how far away I actually was. For further info it was a 24" barrel, a Zeiss scope, I was sighted in for 100yds, and it took 21 clicks...

I'm new to this game so I don't have all the toys yet so I was wondering if one of the ballistics wizards on here could help me out with a spot of range finding. I was shooting yesterday at the furthest distance yet but as I have no rangefinder I'd like to find out just how far it was. I was...

If you go on over to www.6mmbr.com, look down the left of the homepage for the barrel heading and then click on that. There is a lot more info on there than you could ever want from top shooters and barrel makers. It seems as though opinions differ greatly and there is no definitive answer.

You're quite right Sam, as I stated I have very little experience of PD's having come to the US from across the pond. Unfortunately I am disappointed but not suprised by your attitude. I suspect you may well be one of those types who'd like to wipe out every other predator just so we have more...

Let me preface this reply by saying I am not a native of the US (originally from the UK) but now I live in Boise, Idaho. I am a keen hunter and definitely to the right of center in my politics. My first experience of PD shooting was in Montana where a rancher friend has a booming 60 acre town on...

What kind of accuracy are you getting from the 300wsm?

What caliber is the second rifle, is it .308 like the first? How many rounds down the tube?

That's the sorta idea I get as well Gene as some top shooters do it and some don't. Shooting is a very mental game though and we've got to do what we can to give ourselves that extra confidence. Which tool do you use to trim?

Does anybody on here do it? The only reason I ask is that I have some 6mm 95gr Matchkings that look really uneven and I'm wondering whether there'd be an argument for evening everything up. I haven't loaded any yet and I'm sure they'll be more accurate than me but I just thought I'd ask. It'd be...
