I have the S&W, wouldn’t get it again. I got it to shoot heavy bear defense loads. It shoots lighter loads fine but when shooting heavy flat meplate loads the magazine falls out of the gun. Internet searches say that the wide meplate is hitting the magazine catch and during recoil it causes it...
I am wanting to get a left hand Ruger 375 Ruger Hawkeye African and have the barrel swapped out to 450 Bushmaster. First of all is this possible and secondly how do I go about doing it.
I live in Ohio and I’m limited on calibers for deer hunting. Ruger is coming out with this same rifle in...
My Tikka action is at Preferred getting a new barrel. It will be a .850 profile, what diameter should I open the channel to getting it ready for the new barreled action? It is a straight taperless barrel. I am going to wrap a socket in sandpaper open it up, I figured I would just measure the...
I know the velocity will be less than optimal, I want a 30 cal. bullet going as fast as possible with a short barrel in a cartridge I can buy ammo for about any time or place. I feel this is my best option. It may not be for you . Thank you to the ones who replied to the questions I asked...
Going to get a new barrel for my suppressed Tikka T3x 300 WM. Want to go 20”. I am pretty set on a preferred barrel and having them screw it on. Weight is not too much of a concern. I will probably shoot 180gr rounds for now until I can get my reloading stuff set back up in a year or two...
I am wanting to build a left hand 450 Bushmaster on a tikka action. I figure the best way would be to buy a Tikka and have the barrel changed.
What caliber should I start with?
Will any magazines fit a 450?
What bolt do I need?
I’m sure it can be done but I don’t really know where to start...
I have a Nightforce NX8 2.5-20, if I had to do it over again I would get the NXS 2.5-10 or 3.5-15. It would still be a Nightforce though. I don’t know if Leupold even belongs in the high end scope talk anymore.

Wanting to get a new scope for my Ohio deer hunting rifle (450 Bushmaster). It has to have a 1x as the lowest magnification and 6-10 for the highest magnification. I really don’t want first focal plane because I need the lowest magnification to be big and bright for running shots during drives...
Ohio, going to Alaska end of August next year. I didn’t want to thread it 1/2 but that’s all I could get. I’m a little nervous about it but I have researched some and quite a few people say there is nothing to worry about.

I just had it threaded 1/2x24. After my Caribou hunt next year I am going to get a different barrel. I’m thinking a 20” carbon fiber.

Left hand Tikka 300 win mag. Had silencer central thread for the can. I think it was $160, only took 2 weeks, very easy process, wish I had them cut it down some. Next year I will be putting a shorter barrel on it.

Sorry, didn’t see your price point at first. This Savage would be nice, the 110 is solid, I would stay away from the Apex. The scope could be pulled off and used on another if you wanted something nicer. The stock is adjustable and Savage has many aftermarket accessories available...
Congratulations on your first dear. High lung hits will sometimes leave no blood, the chest cavity needs to fill with blood before it can drain out, that is why I try to shoot for the lower third of the chest.
