    How many people are happy with their Howa Mini?

    .280 AI uses?

    I know this guy in Texas. He had a stunningly accurate 6.5CM Savage that would kill any deer that needed killin in Texas at any range that guy could reasonably expect to shoot (0-300yds). So this guy got a chance to go hunting in Central Texas for a whitetail well within the capabilities of...

    Which tikka flush mag for 6.5 prc

    The 270 WSM mag is too short. Ask me how I know? I hate that my 6.5 PRC mag sticks out so far below the rifle.

    Ruger No. 1?

    If I owned a No 1, I would want it in a caliber (308 is perfect) with lots of inexpensive ammo. That would allow me to shoot it a lot. If it is a good deal, buy it.

    Tikkas with factory threaded barrels?

    That was an incredibly smart move by them. 1) Hopefully, other rifle makers will do the same thing 2) Hopefully, someone will sell their original (factory threaded) 223 barrel to me as a take off barrel. Had I suspected this was coming, I would have waited to buy my 223 Tikka for another year

    Is it my imagination or the barrels belled on the end to allow them to thread the rifles while keeping weight down?
