[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1807450, member: 97414"] I totally agree with your idea CH,,, My second 308 rifle in 2016 is a tack driver... [URL]https://photos.app.goo.gl/16nTtY1JHBwBxays7[/URL] It started off as a 32" F Class rig,,, then I shortened it up for PRS,,, I still get a chance to stretch the legs on it at the Fred Bragg Memorial Shooting Range,,, 1450 yards,,, I'm sure that the 185 Juggernauts are hitting the gongs sideways,,, so now I limit it to 1240 ish yards... 3 years of F Class with 2 years of Farm land PRS,,, everyone wants me to switch to 6.5 something,,, so I built a Remmy BDL 700 in 6.5 A-square,,,, it to is a shooter,,, to rock the iron gongs at 600 to 800 meters takes alot of charge to keep the speed up in-order to Rattle the gongs,,, the 140/147gr bullets barely move the 800 meter gong... At least compared to my 308 and Sherman 30/06 with the 180 grain'ers and heavier... The 6.5 A-square brass is some challenging since those hot loads make inside donuts that need timing all the time,,, of course I could load down,,, only issue is that those light bullets won't trace or Rattle the gongs at the 6 to 800,,, not much sence playing with it at this point... So it's looking like the return of full time use to the 308 I have... Then add another one for the lite-weigth hunting stuff... I see a Tikka in left coming my way,,, but I'll take my time as I plan this out... Cheers from the North [/QUOTE]
