A 220 swift and 22-250 are great varmint choices. I know they probably don’t have the energy you want, but they are laser and the 22 creedmoor is pretty popular also. It’s owning the field right now

What do you plan on doing with the rifle?

I ordered a bat m action for a 33xc that's gonna be awhile before it's finished. I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on a repeating action that a can build a 6.5 saum for a trainer rifle until my big bore rifle is completed? I was looking at terminus Zeus action stiller tac300 and zermatt...

I’m in the process of starting an ELR build and I’m unsure of barrel contour? Heavy Palma or MTU? Or any recommendations on contour. I’m looking to get a finished length at 30 to 31 inches. For cartridges I’m looking at 30 Sherman magnum or 300 Norman mag. I’m not sure I want to jump into...

Howdy, I have a proof research shouldered prefit for a defiance receiver. Would it make a difference in trying to find the lands while the barrel isn’t tied to the receiver? Or should I wait? I like the idea of not having the receiver in my way, anyone have any thoughts on this?

What do y’all think about the lapua 139 scenars?

Ooray The length is 26” and the contour is a proof research competition. I have some lapua small rifle primer brass an some cci 450s. I’m kinda leaning 140 eldms or Berger 130s. Do .264s have a problem dropping subsonic and transonic?

I would like to achieve at least .5 moa at 1000. I want the gun to be some what heavy. I have Peterson brass and plenty of h4350. I did a good bit of shooting in the corps that I can’t decide between a composite stock or a chassis system. A lot of the shooting I would be doing is prone 1000...

Howdy I was wondering what the best bullet and powder would be for pushing a 6.5 creedmoor out past 1000 with extreme accuracy? The barrels got an 1-8 twist. Also what’s y’all’s thoughts on stocks and chassis’s? I’m thinking McMillan A6 or mdt Acc or something along that line. The barrel channel...

I wish I had more varget, I only have about 2 pounds left. I’ll probably try hornady’s 168s and Bergers. I have heard the Sierras 168s are a little flaky. Does anyone have an idea where to get some varget? And does anyone have any thoughts on IMR 4895. I’ve read a lot about that for M1A1s. What...

I live it pretty cool weather 6 months out of the year. Do you think that would effect small primers with sd and es

Howdy, so I’m trying to get the most accurate load for a 308 win out to a 1000 yards. I’m looking for suggestions on bullet weight and powder. The barrel is a proof research all steel 26” with a 10 twist. Any experience would be appreciated
