    Bought a Huskemaw 5x20

    Thanks TR. I looked for a long time and read lots of info on the huskemaw but it seemed a little difficult to find an opinion of an actual scope owner who went in with no preference of either scope. I just wanted people to know my personal experience with the product. Do you rope the world...

    Bought a Huskemaw 5x20

    I dont post on here a lot but I do try and share my personal experiences when I have first hand knowledge on an item. I recently had 2 friends buy long range out of the box guns. One bought the gun werks with night force 5x22 and the other bought best of the west with huskemaw 5x20. I shot both...

    7mm Rem. Solid copper loads

    Need some quick help. I just won a rem sendero in 7mm. I have an elk hunt in 2 weeks but have to shoot solid copper, no lead. I have dies, brass, and powder. I am thinking about buying Barns ttsx in 150gr. to load. Anyone have any suggestions as to a good load? I topped the sendero with a...

    300 Win vs 300 RUM vs 30-378 Weatherby

    I have a sendero II in 7mm rem. and I love it. Also have a Rem. 700 with HS 2000 stock. Its in 300RUM, I love it as well. I was going to rebarrel the RUM but it shoots .5 MOA at 200yds so why change it. The sendero will do the same. I have been really happy with both.

    Nosler brass

    Anyone notice any higher pressures or accuracy difference in nosler vs. remington brass? I loaded same load in my 300RUM and the nosler seemed to have more pressure but didnt stretch as bad as the rem.

    G7 BR2 VS Leica 1600-B

    I owned a Leica 1600 for about three months. I could not range well past about 1000 yards. Sent it back and they "worked on it" but still the same results. Finally sold it and bought the G7 and have been very happy with it. Not sure why I had the distance issues but it was very bothersome to me...

    I already sold it, had several locals wanting it so it was an easy sale. I never shot it and sort of regret never giving it a try. Good luck in your search. Jason

    Sako A7 Tecomate

    Sako A7 Tecomate

    I went to a CDA (California Deer Association) dinner last night and my wife won two guns. She won a Howa 22-250 and the Sako Tacomate in 300WSM. I would like to know others opinion on the Tecomate. Its a biit on the light side but are they an accurate factory gun? What sort of groups and...

    need help- off the shelf gun??

    Thanks for the ideas!! I really appreciate the ideas. I will try the 300 with the factory stalk before I buy a new one but most guys on the board seem to start with the stalk and barrel. I won a weatherby in 270 win. last Sat. and am going to sale it so I can buy the stalk then maybe a barrel...

    need help- off the shelf gun??

    Thanks for the info.. I live in Merced CA. I think I will order a new stalk next. Any thoughts on a thumb hole stalk? I was looking at the H-S Precision pro-series 2000. It has a full aluminum bed and I was thinking that with the extra top for the thumb hole it may give it the most stiffness...

    need help- off the shelf gun??

    I am a new-b to the long distance shooting. I am strictly a hunter so an ethical shot is is very important to me. I am wanting an 800 yard gun. I currently have a standard Rem. 700 stainless/syn. in 300RUM. I am loading 180 gr noslers in it and it shoots right at an inch at 100 yards. Triger is...
