    Weatherby - Which model Mark V?

    Does anyone know the magazine COAL for the 243? The High Country has a 1:7.5 twist which is nice, but without knowing the internal box length, I don’t know if heavy for caliber match bullets can be used without too much case intrusion.

    250 Savage Cow Elk Bullet

    I have a 25x6.8, also sometimes called a 25 SPC. It’s a 6.8 SPC necked 257 cal. I titled the post as I did because it replicates 250 savage ballistics… as well as its limitations. I have killed a mtn lion and some javelina with it using the Nosler 85gr Ballistic Tip at 3k muzzle. Those shots...

    Lower back strengthening.

    About 20 years ago I hurt my back and was having serious problems. Surgeon wanted to do surgery… when you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail…. I knew even back then (young and dumb) surgery would be a bad decision. So instead, I got into shape. In my forties now, I don’t have back pain...

    Tripod Reccomendations

    I like the Spartan Ascent with Davros head.., whatever they call it. It’s a nice set up and multi purpose.

    Tikka roughtech ranch?

    That’s cool. Different calibers would be cooler (6mm CM, 243, 6.5cm, 7mm-08, etc)

    Tikka Stock suggestions

    I’ll probably do that victor cheek riser above, and chop the LOP with a grind to fit pad. Thank you for the suggestions. I also might just bring an AR instead of getting the new tikka… my 25x6.8 spits 100gr bullets at 2750 out of a 18” barrel suppressed and is built out of light weight parts...

    I have too, and I don’t like that. I want an integral high comb.

    Tikka Stock suggestions

    I need a stock for a tikka, that is in stock, so no Rokstock, for an upcoming trip. This rifle will be optimized as a “walking rifle”, only intended to be shot offhand/field positions, no tripod or bipod, for use in thick timber. I usually use AR platform rifles this role, but this is an out...

    16.5” .243 or 6.5CM?

    I saw that but I just can’t buy it. I was shooting 90’s at just shy of 3k out of a 18” with zero load development before I sold the rifle.

    reloading newb check list

    Yes. Once you start loading for one caliber, you’ll load for another. With the T7, like I mentioned you can have multiple caliber die sets set up. I loaded today in between work stuff. On that turret: 30-06 sizing die, seating die and FCD crimp die 6.8 sizing die, seating die, FCD crimp Lee...

    reloading newb check list

    I have been loading for over 20 years and have helped numerous friends get set up. Get this list and it will make life so much easier and make reloading more fun. Redding T7: you can have multiple calibers set up without needing to change dies around. Later you can get multiple turrets full of...

    Suppressor covers - who's and why

    I have a Tupperware full of the them from many different makers. The only real application in my experience is range use: 1) Doing AR classes and running the gun hard, then doing transitions to pistol to prevent pant/leg burn 2) bench shooting precision for mirage I have learned from use...
