    6.5x55 VLD

    Hello everyone. I shoot a Swedish Mauser (m38) that is in superb condition. I load for it with a simple yet very effective Lee Loader. Ive shot a fair batch of ammo i loaded up with the Sierra 140 SMK, and the rifle loved them. I want to try the Berger VLDs in it now. VLDs are awesome! Though i...

    Swedish Mauser question.

    Its shooting to the right, so in order to hit center or simply bring impact over to the left i drift front to the right?

    Swedish Mauser question.

    Took my swedish mauser out today for the first time. It is a m38 with a straight bolt and the "T" marked rear sight. My question is regards to why the rifle shot so HIGH even on the lowest setting which is 1. Im a little confused because within the yardage numbers there are finer increments and...

    Manners stock installation

    I understand. So the pillars act sort of loke spacers? Excuse my ignorance, this is new to me; in terms of bedding and pillars. Im going to be putting a serious rifle together (for me at least) and want to be able to understand how to get it done right. I appreciate your help. Thanks.

    Tikka CTR .260 Rem 20''?

    I am very interested in the Tikka CTR in .260 Remington. This rifle comes with all the features i currently want in a serious bolt gun without going the custom route (funds). With that being said, ive come to understand and appreciate calibers of the 6.5 variety, especially the .260 Rem. My only...

    Copper fouling

    I have definitely considered this. And what you say is true. Im still a huge fan of the 700. I will be picking up another one in the coming weeks. My rifle has shot well since ive had it. I also been shooting copper projectiles through it which more than likely contributed to the build up. Im...

    Copper fouling

    I too understand the copper equilibrium but theres a clear difference in the copper filling in minute pores in the barrel and outright copper fouling lol. I honestly cant stand the sight of copper in my barrel.

    Copper fouling

    I use shooters choice bore cleaner. It does a pretty good job. Just wanted to know why mine is such a magnet to that stuff. I guess shooting lead free has contributed a bunch. I will be puttng some matchkings through it next month and hope to see good results. Thanks for the replies guys.

    Copper fouling

    Is it just that some rifle barrels soak up copper more that others? I mean my barrel REALLY holds on to copper. I do my best and do it carefully to remove it but it stays in there. Remington 700 cdl .300 Win. With my last range trip not going well it is pretty frustrating. I might have around...

    Point of impact shift.

    I didnt patch the bore before shooting to clean out the hoppes in the bore. That could be the possibility. The rifle has always performed real well. My adjustments on the optic were true so the optic is fine. I also am still thinking the bore isnt true yet. Cuz geez when im done shooting, it...
