[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 60534, member: 10"] Dogdinger, I may know a couple things about building rifles but there are several other smiths that post here that are equally or even more experienced and the quality of the long range shooters on this board is simply awsome. Thank you for the kind words but you will find dozens of posters on here that know as much as anyone in the world concerning long range shooting. As far as a hammer for those rude dogs that refuse to come into the calls. I have built two big 6mm wildcats for professional yote hunters that have been simply amazing at ranges out to 700 yards. One was a 28" Krieger barreled 6mm-06 which drove the 55 gr Ballistic Tips to 4350 fps with groups in the .2"s at 100 yards, the 70 gr pills to 4100 fps with same size groups and the big 105 gr A-Max bullets to +3500 fps with groups in the .3"s. The other was a 6mm-06 AI with a 30" Lilja 3 groove 1-12 twist which drove the 70 gr Ballistic Tips to 4250 fps with sub 1/4 moa groups. The big 6mms are impressive out to 700 yards or so. SOme will do much farther then that but I prefer a big 25 for ranges past 700 yards or even larger. The 257 AM with its 100 gr bullet at 4100 fps is a decent yote hammer out to 800 yards without much fuss. With a little practive, +1000 yard shooting is pretty simple. For a true extreme range set up a 1-7.5" Lilja 3 groove of 30" in length for use with the 156 gr ULD Wildcat bullet will reach out as far as any round or bullet combo out there. With the proper loads, the 7mm Rem Mag will certainly make short work of a yote at 800 yards. If your used to it use it! Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
