    Mtm case or other options

    If you use slip top boxes put a rubber band and round them. You could cut out a thin piece of foam and put in the top the boxes as well

    The measurement will be different with same brand and different style as well. Like the eldm vs eldx.

    25-06 short barrel specs

    You still didn’t answer the question, why would a 250 savage handle it better than a 25-06. It’s not like the 250 savage was built for heavies. Both would need to have extra freebore to maximize case capacity. I too shoot a 25cm, but I’m not getting anywhere near 25-06 velocity. I...

    Cheapest place for Trijicon scope

    You got a model number to the scope you want? Punch it in to gundeals.com and it’ll show you who has the cheapest deals. If you want it fast, europtic is probably your best bet. If you want it period, optics planet is probably your worst option, and doubtful it’s cheaper.

    Helene destroyed my hunting season

    I don’t think Dollywood suffered any damage. Some of the others sure did but not Dollywood.

    If you find a source for springs let me know. I have three of the ascension mags but only one spring.

    Ballistics help please

    Too fuzzy to see. You need to get to a range and start shooting at distance and see what real world data tells you. Any of us could throw out a number, but you need it verified.

    Help me choose a caliber

    How good can you shoot that 6.5-300 for 10 shots in one sitting? Why are you contemplating getting rid of it? What’s the goal with a new caliber?

    My rifle scope saga continues…

    You can get a trijicon credo for a bit less than a tenmile. Best I can tell, same scope, different mag indication ranges. I gave around $855 for the last ones I bought new a month ago. 2.5-15x44 in mil. If you want ffp, the tenmile in the classifieds is a pretty sweet deal. But if...

    is it my scope or loads? 98% good, 2% fail @ 100 yards

    The fact you never personally confirmed your zero and went hunting with it says a lot. It’s no wonder people are on you like they are, and you’re taking it offensively. If you don’t have time, take the time and miss the hunt to make it right. At this point, I would say you are in fact...

    Building Muzzleloader

    It’s a lot easier to build an “inline”. Get a single shot 45-70 break action and have it sent to get a breach plug. You’ll need a few other things like a ramrod but they work fine. You’ll want someone who can headspace the rifle correctly. If you use a nut setup like savage you can...

    Bergara opinions??

    I seen a handful of bergaras shoot 1200+ rounds in the July Tennessee heat in about 3 hours one afternoon. Never missed a beat. People claim heat will kill group, and those guns never cooled off while maintaining moa if the shooter could.

    Ballistics for Blackhorn 209 and 320 Fury out of RUM

    Any idea on velocity, bc of the fury you’re shooting. I would guess you’ll have at least 4” drop at 200 with your current setup.

    Load Development ?'s (Noob thread)

    You’re trying to use the satterlee method. I’ve tried it, and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I followed the painless development thread on the last one and it worked out. I would pick a manual, drop a grain from max and shoot it. Go .3 up and down and see what happens...

    .3 grains is what I generally do
