    Shotguns for sale

    No idea. I’m the second owner. I’ve only put one box through it. The original owner was a collector. I bought a few shotguns from him. He definitely didn’t shoot it much.

    "Good to a thousand" mentality??

    I think that one of the problems is that people will use a lead sled to practice. They might have a rifle that is good to a 1000 in a vice but they never tried their own skill. They think if they get a good rest and squeeze thats it. If you dont square your shoulder, load your bipod properly you will never be proficient at these ranges. Dont get me wrong there is a use for devices like the lead slead. I use one when working up new loads, so i can take out the human error. I also use it to compare what the rifle is capable of and compare that to what i can. Its helped me find some some bad habits. I have a custom 6.5x284 that consistently shoots 1.5" groups at 600 yards using the lead sled. Shooting prone i havent been able to match those numbers yet. Im usually closer to the 2" to 2.5" group. I keep trying to better myself and hopefully one day i will shoot as good as my rifle. The key is to practice shooting in hunting positions, know your limits, and always get as close as possible.

    6.5x284 mule deer/coues gun

    Here is a picture of a 3 shot group at 560 yards (1.4"). Next time i go out i will take some pics and some video for you. Im not the best shot by no means, but the rifle is more than capable.

    6.5x284 mule deer/coues gun

    I have a custom 6.5x284 and I love it. I wouldn't have any hesitation of putting a deer down a 1000 yards with mine. I shoot a 140 berger vld and at 700 yards its right at 2000 fps and 1200 ft-lb energy. Best shooting gun I have ever shot. It holds 1.5" or less groups at 600 yards and sub 4" groups at a 1000 yards. I retired my old deer gun 300 um.

    6.5x284 custom long range rifle

    That is a steal. You have that much in parts, not counting machine work. 400 for action, 200 for trigger, 350 for barrel, 500 for stock. I would jump all over this if I didn't already have a custom 6.5 284.

    Scope choices ?

    When I was doing my build, it came down to two scopes. The nightforce atacr, and the razor gen2. I love them both but chose the razor because I liked the reticle better. You cant go wrong with a nightforce.
  10. try using a concentricity gage. Sometimes they are tough to find the sweet spot on seating depth. I start .010 jammed and the back off .040 then .080 and the .120. You will see that one of those will be dramatically better than the other. Then I will go in and out from there. My rifle loved them jammed and then really loved them jumped over .120.
  11. He's just getting started out of Oracle. He has his own rifle range with steel gongs out to 1400 yards. He does everything by word of mouth right now until he can build up his business.
  12. There's plenty of room. I wrnt with yhe game scout because at the time it was the only one i could get fairly quick.
  13. Yes, basically everything. Blue printed, lapped lugs, trued the face, cerakoted the action and bolt, pillar and glass bedded. Not sure what else.
