Yeah, I know it's an easy fix, I've changed out several of mine.....maybe just plan on that if that's the route a fellar goes.

Hopped the website and checked out the mesa fft ....I like it...lol. I must have missed it doing my research. I agree, good group here...that's why I asked these guys. They've always been good to help out. Well, I might to take that back, now I've got more decisions to make...maybe I should...

I've heard the Tikkas shoot really well. I handled one at the range a while back I was really surprised how smooth the action felt for a factory rifle. I knew someone would do this! to bring up the ultralight in 280AI....🤣. Seriously though, I've heard alot of people talk about how good they...

Thanks for the input guys! I appreciate it. That Seekins in NIICCEE!!! A little more than I wanting to put in one but....I could wait a little longer ...lol. I hadn't really thought much about the 7prc. Nothing against it, I think it's gonna be a really good round...and I've got 3 7mm cals in...

Hey guys, Im looking to get a new (lighter) rifle for elk hunting, I'll use it for deer too but hiking for elk is my main intention. There's a couple things Im looking for in it. 1) Lighter weight.... 6lb give or take for bare rifle. 2) Threaded to run my can 3) Short(ish) barrel...

Could be the best line I've ever heard....🤣 I usually backpack a couple days a week year round to stay in shape then gradually get heavier with my pack weight a few months before elk season. I'll also do some other workouts too....running, lifting, focusing alot on legs. I'm 43, went on my...

So....I got to the range this week, and my scope is good.....😁 Started with a clean barrel again, just to make sure all was the same as last week. I've got dad a good load worked up with 200gr Accubonds and had a few extras loaded so I tried those. I shot 3 3 shot groups waiting for barrel to...

Hey guys, I got to the range this week and did a little work. Full disclosure….I didn't get a chance to change the scope, we had my 2 little nieces this past weekend, so I had to play my funcle role. Completely cleaned the barrel, copper and all. Loaded up 6 rds each of 2 loads...

I agree! That issue I had with the driver saying it was delivered....I can't understand why ya can't track what houses they went to and say...did u deliver to this house..... especially as much tracking goes on nowadays.... Scooter.....😡

Fedex delivered 3 orders from Shooters Pro Shop to me except it never showed up at my house..... Shooters Pro shop was great to deal with, the ended up sending my packages with UPS....and no issues..... Scooter

Groups haven't been anything to write home about since that time with the hammers....but the scope is gonna be my starting point.... I've got some 7828, I can definitely give it a shot...pun intended.... Yep, I've got a chronograph....went back and looked at some of my numbers, the IMR 4831 w...

I've thought about that too.... I'm gonna clean it out this evening, I'll let WIPE OUT sit in the barrel till tomorrow and see how much crud I get out of it... I'm definitely gonna check the screws again and make sure everything is tight, I normally do the stock bump to make sure the lug is...

Ill have to go back and check my overall length but I went .05, .100, .150, then .185 off...... 0.1 was the best but still not great.... Scooter

Hey guys, I picked up a Savage 110 Long Range Hunter 300WM at Cabela's on clearance about 18mos ago with the intention of using it for elk hunt this fall.(heavier than I wanted but…) Got my scope this spring and started shooting some and accuracy has been just so so. So, I'm asking for...

Absolutely enjoy every one!!! I've been on 2, and Lord willin my 3rd this fall. I've gotten to go with dad both times, and there are great memories with each hunt. Being from the East, anytime I get out West is great! Scooter
