I've owned several ARs but my keeper, without reservation, is my Rock River Arms coyote carbine. It is devoid of any after market toys added to it. The 16" barrel, Hogue over-molded free floated forend and grip are perfect for year around use. The skeleton stock eliminates excess weight and...
As I've said, I own rifles in both 22-250 and 220 Swift. I'm primarily a predator hunter and calling coyotes in SE Kansas is a passion of mine from October thru Feb. Early season I use anything from a 221 Fireball up and thru the 223. Late season, call shy coyotes require the use of a rifle...
As a long range coyote hunting rifle, the 243 really performs. I use 60 grain Sierra HP varminters in mine with IMR - 4007 SSC and easily shoot 1/2" 100 yard groups. With a heavier Nosler partition bullet it will drop a deer in its tracks. Its an easy cartridge to load for…just a great...
I own two 220 Swift rifles. One is a pre-64 Model 70 Winchester and the other is a Ruger 77 V flatboat with the Douglas barrel. I also own several 22-250's. With today's ballistic tip bullets the swift has not only the velocity edge over the 22-250 but also the downrange retained velocity...
I collected Ruger 77's for years. Some shot sub moa and others were finicky. One thing stood out and that was the early flat bolts I owned all shot sub m.o.a. I attribute that to those early Douglas barrels supplied to Ruger and Ruger's strict early quality standards.
I have a CZ 527 223 and mine likes 50 grain Nosler BT's, Sierra 50 gr Blitz King and most all of the 52 grain HP bullets including Bergers. IMR 8208 XBR works with just about everything. BenchMark would be a second choice.
I have two Ruger 77V's…one in 220 Swift and the other in 6MM and both shoot 1/2" or better 100 yard 5 shot groups. My 220 Swift is a Flatbolt made in the first batch with Douglas barrel and particular attention paid to fit and finish by Ruger as they wanted to have a good impression with the...
I have an affection for 220 Swift rifles. My varmint/predator hunting rifle battery would be missing something without one. Presently I have a Winchester Pre-64 Model 70 in 220 Swift that is undergoing a rebarreling with a stainless steel XX premium Douglas barrel.
But today, I ran across a...
The Savage 12 in Creedmore would be a good choice. Savage rifles are getting a reputation for stellar accuracy and great triggers. I've never regretted the Savage rifles I've purchased.
You will probably notice many favorites have been CZ .22 rifles….and for good reason. IMO they offer the best value for the money spent…very accurate, well built rifles. Mine is a CZ 453, as well.
A laser-sighted AR carbine is a formidable defense weapon. The catch here is it is a formidable weapon in the hands of a highly capable individual…not an untrained, casual shooter. And, as a weapon in the hands of the average mom, alone at home, probably more of a detriment than a help.
A...
Unfortunately, I believe your target results are a result of your benchrest shooting technique. Anticipating when the rifle is going to fire will change your hold on the rifle. Try this, focus on the target through the scope and dry fire your rifle several times and notice any shift in the...
I chose the 1:14 twist rate because I use nothing but 50 or 55 grain bullets for coyote hunting with great success in any rifle I use them in. A 50 grain Nosler ballistic tip behind 38 - 39 grains of IMR 4064 or Reloader 15 at around 3900 fps in a 220 Swift is a coyote's worst nightmare out to...
The barrel would have had to been cut back to about 22" and I wasn't interested in ending up with losing the real purpose of a 220 swift and that being velocity and downrange performance. I own several 223's and 22-250's and I don't think cutting the barrel back that much would even result in...
About a week an a half ago I reported that I had picked up a Winchester Pre-64 Model 70 in 220 Swift in 98% condition. I had previously owned several other Pre-64 Winchesters in this caliber and they were real shooters. Not having a swift in my varmint/predator rifle battery, I caved into that...
Lone Star….I do shoot coyotes with my varmint rifles. This one fell victim to my "Lucky Rifle"…a CZ 527 ultralite predator in 223. I call it my "lucky rifle" because it seems about every time I take it to a stand I end up shooting a coyote with it. Its a sweet, highly accurate, little rifle...
