    Black Rifle Question

    As mentioned, you'll either need a tax stamp to SBR the rifle (if your state allows it) since it's under 16" oal, or you'll need to attach it to a pistol lower (if your state allows it).

    Rate of Twist for 308win

    Whatever your testing tells you it is, and whatever your goal's are. Every rifle, and every bullet will be different, and one person's/brand's load of a certain grain bullet will be different than another. Rem has been using 1:12, with little to no complaints, and Savage has been using 1:10 with...

    Rate of Twist for 308win

    I'm not sure what the heaviest/longest it will take, but I haven't heard any issues with them firing a 178 A Max or M118LR (175gr). On the low end, they'll work fine for a 110gr V Max. And there's this... http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/208-amax-1-12-twist-308win-range-report-26984/

    What magnification do you prefer for 600+ yards on game?

    Out of the choices given, I like the Bushnell 4200 with mil dot and target knobs. I recently sold a Falcon Menace that I picked up from SC, and it was a great scope. Not a complaint with it, I just prefer the Bushnell a little more.

    7mm-08 barrel length

    This I know (I've read the Tac-Ops article numerous times for starters;), I was just curious what the velocities looked like from a 7mm-08 at various barrel lengths. Thanks BTW, do you use this name on all forums? I recognize it from the SC and SAS.

    7mm-08 barrel length

    You wouldn't happen to have a link or matrix regarding the velocity of a 7mm-08 at 20, 22, and 24" would you? Thanks!

    7mm-08 barrel length

    I did a search, but for some reason it doesn't like it when you type things like 7-08 or 7mm-08 or 25-06 in the search block. I'm pretty familiar with barrel lengths for a .308 Winchester, but not on the 7mm-08. I'm wanting to build a Savage light hunting rilfe with a barrel in the 20-24"...

    338 Edge Article

    There was an article on the 338 Edge by Shawn Carlock in May of 2008 (on the Long Range Hunting homepage), but when I click on the link to the article, it takes me to another page with links to other articles, and none of them pertain to the 338. Can anyone post a working link to this article...

    Howdy! I've been cruising here for a while, and I love the articles. I've recognized a few members here from other forums, so I figured I'd jump in. I'll probably be quiet for a while as I dig in the archives and do some more learnin! About me: I'm in the USAF as a C17 Flight Mechanic, and...
