I have a factory post 64 xtr sporter with a 24" barrel that will put 3 shots under a dime and when cooled will repeat. No special attention to action, however I adjusted the trigger, full length bedded it in a Brown Precision glass stock and worked up a load consisting of 56.5 gr of H4831, Rem...

ss7mm, Thanks for the info and You are right but, take if from me, Bullets do make a whizzing sound when passing close. At the ranges that you all shoot. The bullets will have slowed considerably and this sound of piercing the air is reduced. No one hears the snipers bullet just the thud...

I own one of each and use each one for different reasons. Like clubs in a golf bag. I say Buy em all! I wish I had the time to use all mine. My wife loves my, I mean, Her 223. LOL . All around, just one, go with a 243.

I agree with all and will add that stainless is way easier to clean and keep clean. From what I have been sampling there is no $ savings over one or other due to the cost of bluing. That in mind, just go with stainless unless you just like blue color on guns????

I don't know whether to be mad or sad. It's a shame, but being a business man I have a hunch what led them to it. Their rifles are more costly to produce, IE moving parts 94, resurecting the classic, made in USA etc... combined with a fickle market who opts for budget Savages, Rugers &amp...

I think the deer react differently depending on environmental conditioning. Deer in the mid west are way more skiddish than western deer. Maybe becouse the deer out west can run their asses off and not find cover so why bother. African game animals react similarly, the group darts off a few...

My personal favorite gun in my rack is a post 64, push feed, m70 in 270 cal. It shoots factory Fed. Fusion 150's sub MOA. I have however full beeded it into a Brown Precision fiberglass stock. My gun and other 270 rifles with 1 in 10 twists like the longer 150 grain bullets and struggle to...

The savage is problaly the best out of the box factory gun available, Remington 2nd. I ditto Dakor about the 223 but sounds like you want a 204. GOOD LUCK

Congrats! Based on the MOAG's 2000 yd performance 1066 must of been easy! Great pics. I remember fishing the Madison and firehole my last visit to Montana some 204 moons ago. This south FL resident would need a couple of Bison coats to survive the winters. Love the country though! Good...

boy did you open a can of worms and we all love to express our opinions. I will asume you meant $1000.00 for the Gun. Do youself a favor and look up Montana rifleman online. They offer complete stainless steel barrelled actions with custom contours and twists for $900.00. Add a little extra...

What is the length of you magazine? Maximum OAL cartridge length could be 3.0 to 3.1 depending on bullet seclectoin, seating depth and your throat. If your magazine is much less than this than your reloaded performance may not exceed what you already have. Otherwise, its should work fine. Go...

I have a Douglass in 243, #5 contour cut to 23" on a ruger m77R (tang). Opted for the premium air gauging. This is not that their standard blanks are not good, it's just insurance of uniformity. My gun will shoot ragged dime size holes at a 100 yrds all day. It's perfect coyoty gun! Should...
