If it was me. I would go with 7mm08 or 6.5x284. Even the good old 308 will do everything you need it to. As for brand of rifle, in my opinion I would just go with good old remington. Maybe a Christianson arm if I was gonna spend more

I just had a problem with my razor gen 1. I guess the turrets are close to the same. What they told me to do was take the outer cap off. Then on the inner cap on a razor anyway, there are two Philips head screws. Take them out and pull off the inner cap. Then there will be two drums a inner...

When I still had my 6.5 x 284 I was using 140 berger hunters on hybrid 100v powder. i dont really remember the velocity and how much powder I was putting it it but I do know it shot really good for what it was.(savage 111 long range hunter) it might have been running a little slower that what...

So I'm sure I will get a bunch of crap for saying this but I'm going to anyway. I am not a fan of hornady. I went to their factory tour a year ago and right when I walked in the "showroom" I saw Trophies and plaques everywhere and I looked and looked for one that said 1st place. Lots of...

I built a 7mm 08 improved last winter and I don't think I will ever trade it for a creedmoor. I know it's the impoved version and it's a custom but I really like it. Little recoil and hits pretty hard with 160s. Im sure I will get a bunch of crap for saying I'm not a creedmoor fan but I'm not...

Has anyone try or even hear of badlands precision bullets? they might be a alternative to cutting edge. Might be worth looking into

I have a saum currently and had a 6.5x284. The saum was a custom build I did and the 6.5x284 was a factory savage rifle. I reloaded for both. the saum definitely is a really flat shooting round but the 6.5x284 is no slouch either. After I built the saum I sold the 6.5x284 and that should...

the one thing i never understood about custom turrets marked with yardage is the inconsistent variables. sure the constants are easy to account for, like muzzle velocity, ballistic coefficient, bullet type, bullet weight, ect. When you live in a place where one day of hunting season can be a...

i would guess its 5/8 - 24. I just took the brake off my long range hunter in 6.5x284 and it had 9/16-28. but bigger bore size should have a bigger thread size in theory. but i was a little surprised to see 9/16-28 on mine. not a very common thread in the gun world. the brake came off pretty...
