What action is that built with? And is that barrel using a lock ring attatchment like on Savage rifles? I do like the way Savage attatches the barrels.
It is almost always humid where I live in Arkansas. I don't usually look at the temperature on a computer and don't have any thermometers outside, but it has been hot, I assume 90 + lately. I actually am quite accustomed to the feel of being in the summer heat, dialed in my clothing decently for...
I don't think I would be looking into either of these calibers anytime soon, but I have to say this thread has been an interesting read and makes me quite well disposed towards the 35 Whelen should I ever have reason to use something in that realm.
Well, I decided to take a look at ballistic science in my Encyclopedia Britannica (yes I have a set oddly enough), and I very quickly came to the conclusion that internal ballistics are far too complicated to make nuanced assumptions about. Everything comes into play when considering recoil, not...
I'm picky, but not a snob. It has to work, but it doesn't need to be anything fancy. I may upgrade and tune things for better performance over time, but I am OK with pretty standard triggers and whatnot for most pracical applications.
Yeah, I was reading that on the articles, but I hesitate on whether it makes physical sense. With most new products with strong claims my reaction is the same; the claims could be true, but until somebody really tests it, (somebody is isn't being paid to market the product that is) then I tend...
How does it end up being less recoil? I assumed if you run 30 cal. bullet of a certain weight out of steel case and a brass case at the same velocity, they are going to be generating the same energy? In which case energy out the barrel being the same means energy into your shoulder would be the...
