Biden and all his BS rhetoric about domestic terrorists and now he has one as a Department Head. What a F***in douche

LA or SA?

The 7.62mm or .308 diameter bullet is significantly FATTER than the 6.5mm or .264 diameter bullet. You would not be able to shoot a 7.62mm through a 6.5C. If you could even get the bolt closed then any attempt to fire would blow up your rifle. Yes, a very very rookie question but important to be clear on.

I had a custom "Sendero" style REM700 270 built and with a RCBS press and 60+ year old dies from my uncle loaded up ammo that went .33 inch at 100 yards. The one specialty tool that was essential to my work was a way to measure from to base of the cartridge to the ogive of the bullet. the ogive is the point where the front of the bullet is at the diameter of the bore. Your rifle will perform the best with the bullet set back from the rifling. Here is a video discussing measuring base to ogive.

Nice looking rifle.

If you can spot a deer pretty far away and can see some sort of bone with 10X then he might be worth getting closer to. If you see deer at distance and can't make out if its buck or doe then its not worth the bother. Having used 10X Zeiss and 12X MeOpta for decades I can say it is a wash. Closer in, picking out a head turn, nose or an ear flick on a well beded deer or one in thick cover is more about a well trained eye. Do you have a nice carbon fiber tripod?

I will buy it. I am also in NW PHX.

What weight barrel and where did you have the re-barrel and chamber cut done? Tell me about the rail, it looks like it is included.

If a whole gaggle of yucksters and their little ones can walk up on your stand you might not bet hunting far enough off the beaten track. But it still sucks they would be so rude.

Being "really ignorant" is malicious.

First off watch all the VORTEX UTubes on archery Coues. It will get you a good general intro. All my rifle hunting has been in 36B, 34B and 35B late OCT early NOV. In the Coronado National ForestIt it is ok to camp off the side of the Forest Road. It is possible to get rained on all hunt, slight chance you get snowed on and plan on possibility low to upper 20's at night & up to 70's during day. The hiking is rugged, lots of loose rock and can be steep in places. Could be a three year process to get it down, good luck.

CatClaw will eat up any trousers that are not tough enough. I hunted in Levis for decades and they stood up to rough brush. Then Levis went anti NRA, anti gun so now it its Carhart or Wrangler canvas trousers for my hunting. The syntho lightweight hiking stuff won't hold up to CatClaw.

I have been working with my once fired Hornady brass (have a couple thousand). I have sorted and using the ones that come in at 148-150 grains, about 1/3 go under or over. Then its flash hole de-burr and primer pocket uniform. But then I weighed a box of Lapua brass, 165 grains +/- .3 grains. With the Lapua no flash hole or primer pocket prep required. Two pictures with the same load one with Lapua brass that was loaded up as is and the other sorted and worked over Hornady brass. Thinking Hornady not worth the effort and Lapua worth the $$.

I bet when he moves his white arms across that black T shirt it really flashes to the game.

Serial number, is it Springfield-SmithCarona-RockIsland? Can you tell where the barrels from? for me at best the value might be the action, so at least $400.

No I have not. I have been to Gold Hill UT, Sibley Mansion AZ and familiar with Manhattan NV.

Rhyolite NV

As energy decreases shot placement becomes more critical. As energy increases you gain leeway in shot placement. But first and foremost you still achieve proper shot placement first.

I have two rifles with the VX3i LRP 8.5-25X50 on each. After several thousand rounds over a couple of years shooting as far as 1000yds still working for me.

If I was a resident and moved before the hunt would defiantly wait to change registration and license

Was the sire local?

At $3 bucks a round might have to take my 270 instead of the 6.5C.

I thought the NRA was started to promote marksmanship and latter organized the 1000 yard Creedmoor matches.

This will end badly, very badly for some. The price at this level is way beyond what is justified by the underlying revenues generated by this company. Think of it as the 6.5 Creedmoor of stocks, way too much HYPE. Be nimble, be engaged and don't get burned.
