Yea I'm hoping I get lucky and can make this thing shoot. I hadn't heard of this round but assumed someone had done it already but I guess not. That kinda makes me feel good inside lol. Now I'm sure someone will say they have done it but thats alright to. It will be awhile beforeits done I...

I was going with a krieger barrel and the fastest twist is 1-12 which I guess is what I will go with. Yea it is deffinatley overkill but so is the 416 it is already chambered for. I thought it would be a cool project. I seen somewhere that seirra had a 350 grain smk but havent heard much bout...

I have a ruger number 1 in 416 rigby and for my final project at gunsmith school I was thinking of rebarreling it to 375 lapua. It would just be a 338 lapua improved necked up to 375 I think it would duplicate 378 weatherby ballistics without the belt and you could use lapua brass. This wouldnt...

how much of the case needs to be holding on to the bullet in a bolt action repeater the caliber is 338-284 if that matters should it be the full length of the neck or is there an excepted minimum. thanks

I want to stick with 22 caliber but what I meant by variant is there is a k-hornet with a 35 degree shoulder, one with a 40 degree shoulder, and there might even be another one I was just wonderin which one has the most oomph. also thanks fir the replys

I have a savage model 40 in 22 hornet and want to rechamber to some form of k-hornet or a different variant I just want to know which variant of the regular hornet provides the most increase in performance. bsicaly which one shoots fastest and I already know if I want more velocity get a bigger...

this is were I got a little of my info from Kailua Custom Guns I guess I was impressed by the ballistics but maybe there exaggerated I guess I don't know

thats just what I have been reading thats why I asked on here I leave for gunsmithing school in 2 weeks and still don't know what type of rifle I want to build and what caliber to make it

I am planning on building a short action cartridge on a long action to seat bullets out further. I have settled on .338cal but not what case. I want the one with the best ballistics now I thought 338wsm was a sure winner but according to all the searches I've done you can barely get 2700 out...

from the little bit I have found on it, it seems to geerate decent velocites especially withh 200 and 225 grain bullets

338-284 I have to build a custom rifle for school and was thinking of chambering it for 338-284. it is a winchester long action and I know why not just 338-06 but what fun is that I was planning on a 26 in. barrel cause you can always cut it shorter. But my thought was I could load the bullets...

Just looking for something that needs a little work and is fairly cheap don't want to spend 4 or 5 hundred on something i have to fix up. someone has to have an old mauser or something or know were I can get one. thanks
