What do u think I should do? I need a new project!

[Ron Milby]

Remmy. Ryan Pierce at Piercision Rifles had a bundle deal with a 25 cal Proof barrel finished and 1000 131 grain blackjack bullets.

I will have to check it out. I really want to run prefits with barrel nuts so I don't have to rely on a smith all the time and wait! Lol

<SNIPPED STUFF>I decided on...22 and 25 creedmoor and a KRG Bravo.<SNIPPED STUFF>.

I love it! Great idea...do TWO awesome calibers in a switch barrel system. Genius.

I am pretty much head cashier at the Walmart's!

My 22 Creedmoor shooting 80 gr. bullets at 3511 fps is no slouch. Better yet it shoots little bitty groups. Almost as much fun as my 20 Practical.

BS METER JUST WENT CRAZY!

How about a 7mm Creedmoor, sounds cooler.

Lol. That's what I was going to suggest, but you beat me to it.

Please, pleas , please don't build anything crapmore based! 22-6mmai, 22--284, 6-284, 6-06, 6.5-06 would all be more fun than any crapmore variant! And you wouldn't have to lie about velocities like newmexkid!

 

[Remmy700]

U know that 6.5-06 is a good option

So I got this like new tikka ctr t3x 6.5 creed sitting here with no purpose in life. Looking to do something with it and need some help on caliber selection. Already got 6.5 covered, already got 6 covered already got 30 cal covered, so that leaves me thinking of maybe a 22 creedmoor. Need some help deciding so I can order me a barrel!

Since you're a handloader, go big. .338 Fedral or .358 Win and Ackley Improve them. Either gives you an instant elk and large game rifle, capable of taking anything up to Moose. Both are fun to shoot, and an AI is fun to experiment with.

You have all these suggestions, what would be the purpose for the build ? What do you want to do with it?

 

[Remmy700]

I got so many guns bro, it will be just a project and LR play toy man.

 

[Alibiiv]

358 Winchester... or whelen if the action will take it... lots of thump...

I've both the Whelen and the.358 Winchester, wouldn't swap either out, but....if I didn't have either the 338-06 would be a viable choice. For some reason I don't think the OP is hunting, simply building a new toy.

Primal rights documents the 80 grainer at 3525 in a 26 inch barrel. Don't have one myself but I would be surprised if they would put load data on their site that was off. I am hoping it's right cause my next 22 caliber is a 22 Creed.

I do not know you but I live in an area where we have goats, deer, so I think I would make a 257 Roberts improved if it's a medium action, if its a short action I would make a 338-08. just because I like being different. if it has a magnum bolt face.. I would definitely go with a 1:8" twist for a heavy 270 WSM or a 257-270 WSM with a heavy twist. I have seen my hunting buds do this and it turned out phenomenal for deer and speed goats. also they are very good for getting people to say "What the hell is that?"
later tatters.
