hey stan.850 for labor is 300 to 400 cheaper than all the ones mentioned.not many know of dana,but he knows his way around rifles.so are you supplying components.is dana going to assist you with this.i would try and gey a defiane tenacity action.if 6.5 creedmoor.most shoot a 1-8 twist ,if you...
thank you both.yes sir 223 with 77 grainers on all of them out to 300 or 400 yds.yes a great cartridge but for me no thanks.when in grizz country.not thie elder.i value my life.
stan,just curious what calibers you are interested in.approximate weight.stocks you like.remember you want a rifle that fits you and very important balances well.
stan.either one will build you a great rifle.dana used to be a big wig in the auto industry.believe also built race car engines.joe lived about 10 minutes from robert gradous.good friends of robert for many years and gave joe some advice.gradous recommended both of them to me years ago for a few...
elk and moose are one thing.peninsula or kodiak brown bear is on another level.been there done that.shooting at big bears at 400 yds is to put it nicely foolish.ask any quality guide.also common sense helps.good hunting to all.
darryle.i know and understand apr and there different models.i know they have built some great rifles and offer a great value rifle on there less expensive models.so we all have our flavor.also obviously you enjoy your firearms as i do.by the way,280ai is one of my top 6 all time favorites.enjoy...
hey central.yes the 257 bee has been reborn.having one built as we speak.top components with a 1-8 twist barrel at 25 "will be shooting from 120 grainers to 131 grainers with 1/4 moa potential with the right loads.also 280ai is a top cartridge and i own one.
280ai is in my opinion in my top ten all time.closer to 5 than 10.i agree with most all i have read here.but for me when you start talking shooting at live game animals at 700 yards,lets just say everyone has a opinion.elk cartridges for me start at 30 caliber magnum and only go up.you have to...
moa or a little better in a good factory rifle yes.custom for 2 grand with the work necessary to shoot under1/2 moa.thats asking a awful lot.i dont think so.
2b in a bartlien with somewhat shallower flutes.there are also other barrel manufactures you could check out.several.your basically trying to get a sporter type hunting rifle ans somewhat of a competition bench gun in one.i dont know the other components your looking to use.
semi custom and tack driver dont always work in the end result.if half" to a little under 3/4" works for you buy a tikka factory gun.this is in relation to your wanting a 300 wby.you also have to take into account your honest ability behind this gun.i could name you a # of quality smiths that...
