    What do you guys consider a good group at 500 yards

    4 inches from horseback at a full gallop would be really good.

    Bolt Actions that Pinch (CZ and Ruger)

    Thanks guys. Some really good replies! I'm leaning a little more towards the Ruger, although the CZ is nicer to look at and i like the extra ~100fps velocity those 2" bring. The Ruger is just so handy and while both are quick to point, the Ruger is downright snappy. For the Oregon brush i...

    Good deal. Hard to drop 7-8 hundred bucks hoping something will improve. Cool rifles though, both of them.

    Anyone reloading 7.62x54? where are you getting brass?

    I'm reloading 54r. I bought prvi and shot it all off for amost the same price as buying brass. By all accounts the prvi brass is fantastic. The reason i'm reloading is because nobody makes a premium hunting round for 54r. I'm loading up .311 caliber Barnes TSX 150g for deer and elk...

    Trying to pick out my first rifle.

    Never had an issue with the m16 right hand model shooting lefty. I assume most AR's eject the same. I like being able to keep my left hand on the pistol grip and cycle and mag swap with my right. Just my preference.

    Bolt Actions that Pinch (CZ and Ruger)

    Went to the gun shop today and was comparing the CZ 550fs in .308 and the Ruger m77 RSI in .06. Ruger CZ I liked them both. They were asking $740 for the Ruger and $850 for the CZ. The ruger's an 18" barrel and the CZ "20. The ruger felt significantly lighter and handier. Both...

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    Thanks res45, did you you the same bullet seating die as .308 or does .300 savage use a different die despite being the same bullet?

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    I stand corrected! Cheapest i can find is $1.20 per round at cheaperthandirt. Maybe .50c a casing isn't so bad for new brass after all :) I've been searching for 7.62x54r and i think i had that price in my head for prvi 150sp's.

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    Thanks guys, i think i'm just going to shoot off some commercial and use the spent casings. I'm not spending .50 cents per casing on new brass when i can buy loaded ammo for .75 then have spent casings that are mated to my rifle anyway.

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    I have a ton of .308 but no .308 rifle. The brass is pretty cheap at midway. The only real reason to do it though is because it's interesting and i like tinkering.

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    I just thought of something. If i trim down my .308 brass to the correct length, then run through full length .300 savage sizer die, will the die correct the shoulder angle?

    Just checking .300 Savage Can't be cut down from .308 right?

    All dimensions at the same except the length of the neck and the angle of the shoulder. Since the shoulder angle on 300 savage is 30 degrees and 308 is 20 degrees it's not possible to cut down .308 to .300 savage specs correct? Thanks
