    ruger american or "other"

    This would be MY choice. I really like the Brownings. To me it would worth some extra driving. (maybe meet partway?)

    Factory Rifle in 6.5x47L?

    I went with the heavy bullets for the high B.C.'s, but after looking at the 123 A-Max I was surprised that it had a pretty good B.C. when compared to the heavies. GREAT, now I have to go buy more bullets:)

    Factory Rifle in 6.5x47L?

    I went almost the same route as farmerboy with the Savage 12 LRP, except I went with the .260 rem. I believe it has slightly more case capacity, but not positive on this. I've loaded 4 different bullets (Lapua 139 scenars, Berger 140 VLD match, Sierra 140 HPBT match, and Nosler 140 LRAB) in...

    I'm looking for a long range target rifle

    Quote from the Berger manual: "When compared to the popular long range load of a 190 grain Sierra Match King pushed at 2900 fps, the 140 grain from the 260 has over 15% less wind drift and shoots slightly flatter. The 140 grain bullet has almost 90% of the 300 WM's energy at 1000 yards and...

    I'm looking for a long range target rifle

    Rocky, I just went through this same decision. I was considering rebarreling a savage that I had and a new stock. After some research I decided to just buy a Savage model 12 Long Range Precision in .260 Rem. I believe the .260 has slightly more case capacity than the Creedmoor, but I'm not...

    Favorite 260 rem. powders?

    Thanks for the replys so far. Probably won't be doing any hunting with this (11 pounds bare rifle) except maybe some varmints on rare occasion. Was considering 7828ssc to begin with and I have IMR 4350. Does anyone have any experience with the various Berger 140"s? Not sure which one would be...

    New dual mode trigger system BATF approved !!

    roklok, Congrats on the design. I dont see a safety problem with this as long as you have enough sense to operate a firearm in the first place! Maybe you should just put a caution on the package that states if you don't have enough common sense to use this product, DON'T BUY IT!

    That would be nice, but they won't sell to you if you are in Tennessee. Bummer!

    Help Identifying Trigger

    I just picked up 1940 Winchester 70 target rifle in 220 swift. I knew it had an aftermarket trigger but when I removed the trigger guard the trigger was attached to the guard. Does anyone have any idea who made these triggers? It appears to be a very well made trigger. It also has a very small...

    Need 6.5x55 bullet recommendation

    Thanks for the help so far. I decided on 140 grain bullets and got some Sierra SBT's and some hornady interlocks and I'll start there and see what happens. I will start with IMR 4350 and if the results are not satisfactory I may get some R-22 and try that also. I'll try to let y'all know how it...

    Need 6.5x55 bullet recommendation

    I just picked up a stainless Howa 1500 in 6.5x55 with a 1 in 8" twist and 22" barrel. I'm going to use it for some of my deer hunting this year and was wondering what bullets y'all were having good luck with. I am looking for a slight edge toward accuracy and good performance on deer. Any pet...

    Need info on IAI 30 carbine auto

    I have a gentleman that is offering me a trade including a IAI in 30 carbine. Could anyone give me an idea of what this gun is worth? I have not seen it and have no idea of condition or if it has the box or any accesories. Is this any better or worse than the AMT? Any info would be appreciated...
