Only twice??? Slackers....

I am with you Adam. No one who is not addicted will ever understand the thrill of wingshooting.

Max point creep is real....

Just paid off my CC, so looking for anything but a $0 balance now!!!

So they can legally confiscate trail cams around water sources. It might put a stop to the thousands of guide cameras in trophy units where there are 20 on each tanks sending instant photos.

If Mullerworks contours are the same as Rock Creek (who starts Mullers barrels)9, it is a .650" muzzle diameter @ 26". Right in between a Bartlein 2B & 3. Good hunting contour. Like a heavy or magnum sporter. Mullerworks barrels have an outstanding reputation for accuracy.

I have a decent shot at an antelope tag. Not much chance for elk, but never know.

I need some for testing. Looking for 15 each of the following. Let me know if you want to part with a few. Berger 140 HVLD Berger 150 HVLD Sierra 140 SGK Sierra 135 SMK Nosler 140 Accubond Barnes 129 LRX I already have: Sierra 150 SGK Hornady 145 ELD-X Nosler 150 ABLR Getting ready to do some load work for my brother who finally put in with me for elk, and by himself for pronghorn (he will probably be THAT guy that draws with 0 BPs). And will be putting in for deer with us this year too. R700LA BDL B&C Alaskan stock (I just bought for him) I will be swapping in one of my old Rem triggers tuned down to 2#, and convincing him to buy a decent scope. I have rings fpr him already.

Cut the grass.....hmmmm....let's hire a new division of DHS/CBP. The GCA "Grass Cutting Authorities". Of course, how are we going to vet all of the landscaping professionals who normally perform this task....

Oh, he has been asking me for 3 years to put in with me and I kept telling him F You! I became really generous in sharing my bonus points since then....

Lucky idiot...

An eye-popping experience.

Very well said! It will do everything the bigger cases will do with less powder, longer barrel life, less recoil, and better brass life. The short action thing is in your head if that what you like. Difference between a short action and long action is one inch! If that's too heavy or you can't manage the longer bolt throw than it's a plus. It's shiny new nickle! I would not say "it will do everything the bigger cases will do". Several will outrun this by 100-200+fps.

8-9" twist in .284/7mm is always a good choice.

Does that bum you out? Not even a little bit.

Let me guess....you are going to want to shoot a 143 ELD-X or 140 Accubond...

Shooter. I would most definitely say very few people can shoot a 1/2" group, even if the rifle is a 1/4" gun.

This. You can get faster 6.5 rounds for sure, but factory loadings and all of the 6.5CM fans will foam at the mouth over this as a hunting round. That being said, there are older, faster and more efficient 6.5 rounds that still fit in an SA. 6.5 GAP 4S, 6.5 SS, 6.5 SST, 6.5 WSM, 6.71 Phantom (Lazzeroni), and a few other wildcats.

Sit. I have rifles that I know will start to open up at 100 rounds, so when I get close, I clean. I have others that will go 200-600. I keep an accurate round count and cleaning schedule data, so I know when I am getting close.

Factory rifle? 1. Shoot one, clean for 10 shots. 2. Then shoot 10, clean, done. Custom rifle with a good barrel? 1. Shoot one 2. Shoot one 3. Shoot one 4. Repeat 1-3 until accuracy falls off. I have several rifles that will shoot in the .1-.2s all the time that have gone through this method. I highly doubt a "break in" would have improved anything. More damage is done by improper cleaning than shooting. When I do clean, it is a complete strip. I use Shooters Choice #7 and Sweets 7.62 for copper removal. Last clean of several rifles with up to 200 rounds through took 2 passes with Sweets to get all copper out. A good barrel should not need a lot of cleaning.

Thanks!

I am not a fan of radial brakes. They work GREAT. But they blow dirt, sand, rocks up into your face and all over your rifle when shooting prone or sitting. I hate that.

Your mailbox is full. Interested for my brother. Take PayPal? Ship to Glendale, AZ?

I cannot glass for extended periods with my spotter. I use my 10x42s for glassing out to a mile. Then switch to my 15x56s and re-glass anything from 800 and out to 2 miles or so. I spotted antelope at 7+ miles with my 15s according to a map I checked later. Spotter is for a closer look at game a long ways out.
