I guess I'm a collector of sorts I want this one then that one then something in between then we all know where that leads...now there is something in between each of them... It's a never ending cycle but I don't have anything between the 300 wby and 50 bmg so that's the niche I'm looking to...

Ok guys I'm having a really hard time deciding on my next rifle build I shot a weatherby mk v action and want to use it or an xbolt for the short throw I like a heavy gun so weight is at the bottom of the list (carried a 338 lapua weighing 17.1lbs elk hunting) I want ultra long-range ability not...

This is still in the idea stage but you guys got me thinking what about a 408/378 weatherby mag??? Built similar to a 50bmg(brake big barrel and heavy chassis)

Lol true this fits into my "hair brained ideas" category

I was thinking that the 458 barrel would live longer

The b.c. Of the Lehigh 528grain bullet is listed at .828

I currently have just the bare action sitting there and Shilen said it was not a problem to make me a 33" blank in a 14 twist and on lehighs website they state that a 15 twist is sufficient at 2800 now I won't make 2800 but at a 14 twist I would think it would stabilize that bullet and if I...

I'm toying with a new build and was trying to think outside the box ...Lehigh bullets has a 458-528 grain long range bore rider bullet is there something I'm missing or does this have some real potential.... The only reason I got to weatherby is that I have a mk v action sitting there in the...

Same jar of powder same lot of bullets same brass

Yes that helps I was just blown away at how much the groups shrank In a .1 increment

So I've been shooting 140 amax's in my 260 rem ar platform 24" benchmark barrel timney 3.5lb trigger, anyways, I was grouping about 5"@500yds with 40.4 grains of aa4350 wlr primers and col of 2.785 @2650 fps I've been shooting that load a while and it was the only consistent load I had found and...

This is a great site thanks for all the help guys and gals

I looked into the swfa but they were back ordered and I don't want to wait a month so I made the decision and ordered the nightforce shv in 5-20x56 with a moar reticle I think I'll be happy with that I know it's a second focal plane but being honest with myself I'll hardly ever be under 20x and...

OK so now I'm considering the night force SHV series and I also kind of liked the Leopoldo Mark 4 8.5 x 25 with the M5 turrets or am I spending way too much because the vortex Viper PST will do everything these two will for a chunk less

Well that complicates things lol
