When it first happened I was hoping this was the case, but I checked all the cap screws and they were tight. The previous range session I actually missed retightening one on the windage turret when I was zeroing it (there's 2 on elevation, 3 on windage). As I was farting around it dropped on the...
Unfortunately it's a combination of some must finish house projects before we head west and a lack of 500 yard ranges close by, I doubt I'll be able to get time to do another proper range session. I was leaning towards using the 6mm anyway, so going to leave that one as it is. Prior to the 300...
I may have worded that wrong as far as how I was dialing, but did double check when we were shooting - 5.75 - 500, 2.5 -350 and 0 - 200. Will try swapping a different scope if there's a chance, but likely won't be till after the trip west.
This 5-25 is a new scope for me, but have been really...
Heading out to Wyoming in a few weeks for a deer and antelope trip. Have been at the range the last two weekends shooting my 6mm CM and 300 Win to get ready for the trip. Last weekend spent most of the morning selecting ammo, getting zero at 200 then verifying drop at 500. The 6cm is a Seekins...
6mm Creedmoor Ammo - Barnes 95gr LRX BT. Bought 3 boxes and fired 4 rounds, my gun just doesn’t like these, was going to just keep for brass but Precision Hunter shoots so well probably won’t reload. Got it on sale at Midway, so passing that on - $65 shipped
ARC 1” X-Low M-Brace rings. I run...
Curious, have you tested any of the Barnes factory ammo (TSX and TTSX)? Don't have a chrono, wondering how the MV varies compared to the others..
Thanks,

Berger 95 grain classic hunters shot 1/2" or so out of my PH2. I also shot the 103 ELDX and they shot clover leafs. These were both 3-shot groups though. Just got a few boxes of Barnes VOR-TX 95 grain LRX as they were on sale but haven't shot those yet, have had really good luck with barnes ammo...
I was in this same boat but for a 6CM. Ended up going PH2 mainly based on all of the positives I've heard about the accuracy and the company. I do think the Waypoint stock looks nicer than the molded stock of the PH2, that was really the main thing that made me want the waypoint, but now that...
Got the word back from weatherby, honestly really disappointed, basically buy a new gun was the response. We’ll get a new barrel and a decent stock and get it put back together at the smith.
Currently in north central MN waiting for the wind and rain to stop. We're about 2 hours north of Minneapolis, MN at the family farm where my mom grew up. Have all kinds of trail cams out up here and the biggest deer on cam so far is a ok'ish 8pt that I let walk opening day. Meanwhile, back in...
Yeah, we'll have it checked for runout, but to my eye at least it's fairly noticeable. And I know the video you're talking about, was going to post it but didn't want to start a debate whether you can/should or how to straighten barrels. It is eye opening, though I think some v-blocks and a...
Ha, this is literally my exact thought process. Just a drop, but can't prove it I guess... Although, there are absolutely zero tread marks on the stock
Yeah that isn't the plan. Would be cool if WBY could help put humpty dumpty together again, might be cheaper than smith. But if they don't no biggie. I'm just surprised at how easily/cleanly it snapped and wondered if other people had issues with that particular stock. They have NOS of the same...
This is exactly what I was hoping someone would chime in with. And yeah, the whole thing looked pretty weak, I was expecting the outer shell to be a thin layer of fiberglass of something, but it looks like a hard paint that's coated over foam/fiber stuff. My dads old Mark V 300 Wby (1980's...
Yeah, my brother is going to get in contact with Weatherby. Between him and my parents there are 4 Mark V's in the family and have been really happy with all of them, and have heard good things about their customer service. I recently bought my mom a Camilla in 6.5CM that shoots absolutely...
You can and lots of people do rebarrel after a bent barrel. Typically these thin #1 or #2 barrels, especially fluted aren't all that hard to bend. That said, still really surprises me. Looking down the bore it looks fine, but you can pick up an ever so slight bend looking down the length of the...
