Long Range Rifle Pic Thread...Post them up!

[Justin Crossley]

Justin, that's a purty rifle and looks like it shoots good, too! Love those 6.5s...

Thanks Sam.
I'll be picking your brain before my next build. I've really been leaning towards something in the .300 family but I'm not sure yet.

Nice setup Spdrman.

Just curious what do your guys LRKM's weigh?

 

[Broz]

Mine with full dress , ATACR, 6 screw rungs, bipod and all is just under 16 lbs by my scale and it has a 32" tube.

LRKM with the 5th bull it took in the 2013 season. My wife's first ever bull. And the first time she ever shot the LRKM. 765 yards and look at her shot placement. After the shot she stated "that rifle is the easiest rifle to shoot you own."

Great shooting. Can't ask for better placement than that. Next time she can just shoot him between the eyes

My wife holding my 50 BMG, McMillan action & stock, Brux barrel, Leupold mark4 16X scope...and it's shoots 750 A-max's crazy good!

 

[Craig Van Arsdale]

Damn those DE rifles are a pretty sweet!! Might need to start saving

Mine is not nearly as sexy as some but here is my heavy .300WM and 200gr NAB with H1000.

Man I would hate to pack that sucker into some of my spots, but I would do it. That has got to be the best looking 150 pound hog rifle I have ever seen, and you live in the land of Dall Sheep too. I am jealous.

 

[Sam Millard]

That is a very nice cannon ramhunter, and looks like a solid shooter as well!

 

[Eric S]

WOW, those things are awesome.

Has anyone weighed there long range rifles. If so what are you tipping the scales at? I'm currently having a rifle built and Im starting to get nervous about the weight. I've spent all winter buying and selling and reading and bugging BrockA trying to get my pack weight down and now I think im going to be adding a fair amount of weight in the thunder stick category. I think the weight will be worth the extended range either way.

Gun Spec:
Stiller predator action
Manners EH1 stock
jewel trigger
Shilen barrel
Vortex Razor HD 5-20X50

 

[Sam Millard]

DE Canyon rifle right at 16 pounds, 7WSM @ 11 pounds, TAC260 @ 13 pounds. All weights loaded with bipod.

 

[Broz]

My LRKM is just under 16 lbs
My 300 win is 11.6 lbs Both scoped with bipods

Sam Millard, what part of N. Idaho do you live?...I was born and raised in St Maries, was just down there whitetail hunting last Nov!

Here's one of my light long rangers, 22-250AI, 26" Pac-Nor 1:8 3 groove barrel, loves the 75gr A-max's and is a tack driver!

 

[MJ from Oregon]

7WSM Sheep Hunter

I live NE of Rathdrum. Spend some time in the Joe looking for bears in the fall every year. Do you know what % and colors that Mac swirl pattern is on your light rig? Getting ready to order an A3 and still deciding color...

Nice to see some other Sheep Hunters around. Here's mine in my favorite chambering.



Don't remember the weight, but it's at least half what the big stick is and a real joy to carry after humping that heavy sucker all year!

 

[ramhunter]

Sam, the A5 is 50%black/25%olive/25%tan...
This is a McM Classic 33%black/33%tan/33%olive...

This seems like a good thread to ask this question with all you assasins chiming in
I am looking for some berger 215gr match hybrid target bullets. They are out of stock everywhere i look. Does anyone have a lead on where to find them?

Does anyone see any issue with my bullet selection.
