    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    defiance just came out with a new titanium action the TI X. 16.8oz in the short action. that and a 20" barrel you should be able to hit the 7lb mark with a chassis.

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    my vote would be 300wsm. im getting 2925fps with 178gr eldx with a 20" tube. running terminus flush mags, I have a max COAL of 2.90" just have to get a notch milled in your feed ramp.

    Pants help

    my wife uses the fjallraven kebs when we go sheep hunting and likes them. I've been using the kebs the last 3 years on my sheep hunts and they have held up great. would definitely recommend them.

    Spotting scopes…

    I switched from phone scope to a novagrade and I'm not overly sold on the novagrade. phone scope is much simpler and lighter. I always have to mess with the novagrade to get the position correct. Yes, novagrade you only have to buy it once, but the phone scopes aren't expensive either. For a...

    300 WSM load recommendation

    I've loaded for like 5 different 300wsm now. everyone has shot under .75moa with 63-64.5gr H4350 and 180gr accubonds or 178gr ELDX I'm currently using 64gr H4350 and 178gr ELDX doing 2925 with a 20" barrel. H100V will work as well. H4831SC also is very accurate but not as fast as H4350 with...

    270 WSM?

    if you plan on reloading the 270wsm is fine. can just get 300wsm brass and size down easily. I've ran lots of 270wsm brass and sized up for my 300wsm.

    Running Heavy Rifles for a Reason

    well, your luck is better than mine with them. don't get me wrong I loved the scope. it outperforms my ATACR optically. the turrets always tracked great. But having the internals come apart on one, then the 2nd one wouldnt hold zero after being in the jet boat or on the gun rack on a quad, then...

    Running Heavy Rifles for a Reason

    13.5lbs mountain gun oooooof. be no way you'd catch me lugging that up a mountain chasing sheep. Also, a Kahles would not be what I would consider durable. Been there done that…twice… Anyways my custom sits at 8lbs 4oz with 3 in the mag and 6 spare shells on the stock.

    Early September Yukon Sheep hunt boot choice?

    haven't hunted in the Yukon but live and hunt sheep/ goats in northern BC. September can either be +25*C or -5*C and snowing. I use uninsulated kennetreks all year. only time I personally get cold feet in them is -30*C in November white tail hunting. I think you'll be fine with uninsulated...
