    Vortex Extreme - Gear Setup?

    Thanks for the info guys.. really looking forward to this, but do not want to get up there unprepared or under-equipped. Already have my training planned, as I have a 300yd range in the back yard.. going to set up the treadmill behind the shop, run a mountain program on it with elevation and...

    Vortex Extreme - Gear Setup?

    OK.. so my Brother and I are looking at doing the Extreme this year.. would love to hear from some of you that have participated before.. Ongoing question to myself is which rifle to take... All of my setups are for hunting, so no adjustable stocks or anything, looking to have fun, not dominate...

    Alpha Grand Slam - Scope Base Question

    OK... SO I have an Alpha Arms Grand Slam in 284 that was purchased in 1986.. came with Beuhler Mounts and 1" Rings.. Changing it over to a 30mm tube now.. and wondering about the bases. Best I can tell, they are on a Mauser type action, but not sure if it has 96 pattern or 98 pattern. Anybody...

    Christensen arms ridgeline rails...

    If you look on Christensen site, they have rails for them. 0 MOA and 20 MOA. They state that you can use Savage 2 piece, but that the 1 piece will not work. I went a different way and used Leupold Dual Dovetail for Remington 700.... Had to buy two packs of them because you use only the fronts...

    6.5 Creedmoor - Hornady Factory Ammo -

    These are all factory loads still, and the OAL on them is crazy different.. I am trying to shoot ones together that are closest in OAL. I was shooting off a Sandbag that needs about another 2 cups of sand in, and chasing Mirage in S. Texas on these, so I'm sure I can tighten them up just with a...

    That is what the 3rd pic is of. For sure the tighter group.

    New to reloading...which powder?

    the past 15 years, I have loaded R22 in mine.. behind 165's and 168's. Never had a reason to look for anything else.

    6.5 Creedmoor - Hornady Factory Ammo -

    OK.. FINALLY getting some range time with my Ridgeline 6.5 Creedmoor.. did some barrel break-in a few months back, just now getting to shoot again after the minor tweaks (Taking trigger WAY down, little sanding up front on stock). Still sorting through the factory Hornady ammo, and man, the one...

    Christensen Arms Ridgeline

    On Gunbroker, I have seen a 22" Creedmoor before, but there is no listing for it on Christensen. They also have some with 20" on Gunbroker. No tin the Ridgeline, but the Classic.

    Christensen Arms Ridgeline

    I am not a fan of a pencil-thin barrel.. that being said, I realize that the Carbon-wrap is wrapped around a pencil thin barrel, but the carbon keeps the barrel from getting that "whip". There is a video of a guy on Youtube taking a proof research barrel off of a gun, beating a Cinder Block to...

    Christensen Arms Ridgeline

    Really didn't think mine was all that heavy until I put it on the bags trying to get some groups... I was having to start breathing cycle all over agin halfway through trigger pull!! On my trigger, the only one that has marker paint on it is the sear engagement screw, which was fine. Took the...

    The Vortex balances pretty good on the Ridgeline.

    28 Nosler or 300 RUM?

    Been shooting the 300RUM since the year Remington introduced it.. not because I need the extra umph it provided, but because I LIKE IT!! Overkill for deer, but why is that bad? I have killed 15-20 large S Texas whitetails with it, along with several dozen hogs up to 900 yds with the 165 Swift...

    New Toy!

    OK, so since there is only two post in the last day, I thought I would post another! New Ridgeline in 6.5 Creedmore. Wearing a Vortex Viper HS for now.. Thinking today may be the day I get to shoot it finally! Still haven't decided on keeping this base/ring setup, or going to a rail. Grabbed a...

    Christensen arms ridgeline

    I apparently received a 2015 rifle in which they did not include with the rifle.. I found some 8-40's proper length, have two front Leupold dual dovetail on it for now.. just like the simplicity and "minimalist" look of it. Haven't had a chance to shoot yet though.. this being an adult thing and...

    Justin - The Pic Rail you are using - Is it for Savage, or what "bolt pattern"?

    Christensen arms ridgeline

    Just got my 6.5 Creed Ridgline in yesterday, and trying to find bases for it is about to drive me crazy! Wanting to use the Leupold Dual Dovetail to keep it sleek and minimal, but standard Remington 700 will not work due to the mounting holes in the receiver being the same distance apart, where...
