Carbon Wrapped Barrel Pecking Order?
Because I have hearing issues, I only shoot suppressed. Consequently, I cannot use the really light contours. - Some of barrel sellers want me to use their Heavy Sporter Contour if I want it threaded for a suppressor. I have two 2” heavy sporter barrels and they aren't really light and they... -

Carbon Wrapped Barrel Pecking Order?
What peaked my interest was a look at X-Caliber barrel's website. Their CF barrels are less than I expected. -

Carbon Wrapped Barrel Pecking Order?
If one was looking to buy a carbon wrapped barrel, is there some sort of tier/cost pecking order I should be considering when I start looking at a new build. My wife and I drive a Toyota and an Accord if that gives you an idea of what tier products I typically look for. Even if I had the cash... -

280 ai or 7mm prc.

Support for 6.8 western?
ADG was in the Shoot2Hunt podcast talking about their production schedule. It was very clear that they will be producing some 6.8W within 12 months because people have asked them to do it. I am buying a 6.8W rifle within the next 12 months. I am looking for the right deal. With Hornady 7PRC... -

Tikka 300 WSM magazine options for extra COAL
Most people shoot factory ammo. I would bet that most handloaders aren't looking for extra room in the magazine vs better feeding with Saami Spec cartridges. They build rifles for the 90-95% buyers. -

Feedback on Preferred Barrel Hybrid Lite for Tikka T3x Lite

Best Powders: Short Barrel 270+280AI
I am the proud owner of two rifles I assembled that have 20" barrels. One is a 270 (cheap to shoot and plenty for deer) and a 280AI (exotic project). Normally, I would look at reloading manuals and start with the temperature stable powders with the best velocities. But, I suspect the best... -

280AI hornady eld m 162 gr & nosler 168 gr Accubond LR.
If they didn't think many people would be using that bullet in 280AI's, they probably did not want to spend money to test it and develop good data. Barnes has load data for 160g and 165g copper bullets. Personally, I am planning to do some accuracy/ velocity testing of the following: 140g...
