Years later, the extractor broke again.. Emailed Remington to see if it will be covered under warranty once again.

In Canada? No. I can hunt them here in Alaska. (y)

It seems that I could use this scope with my 243 after all. The only difference will be that the elevation clicks will be 1 MOA instead of .5 like the windage dial. If I wanted, Leupold can make a custom dial for any caliber as long as I provide some ballistic data for just $59.99 + tax. The...

I just recently bought a used Mark 4 M3-10X scope without it's original box and papers. The scope being my first 30mm scope I had to order some rings for it to use on my Rem 700 VLS .243 Win. After receiving the rings in the mail I had a closer look at the scope and I was surprised to find the...

OK, someone switched the bullets between the boxes. :o Thanks!

I found a partially used box of bullets that has "270" marked over 7mm 160 E-tip box. I measured one with a caliper and it came out at .277 inch, it has a OD green tip. I looked it up in the comparison page on here and it shows it as being an E-tip bullet. I have an unused box of 130 grain, .277...

That would definitely ruin my day! :lol:

I don't know if this is the right forum, but here is my at that time, new to me, hunting bullet. :grin:

Thanks again. I'll double check to see if they have any RL25 in stock. If not, I'll just get the RL22 and use it for both my 7mm & 300 RUMs until I can get my hands on some slower powder, the dealer said he'd definitely get some IMR 7828 powder later on. Living in rural AK does have some...

Thanks everyone who replied. I thought it was a bit too fast for the 7mm RUM using heavier bullets, just thought I'd ask just in case someone uses it for those weights. How about Alliant RL22? Alliant lists a couple loads online using Rem. 24" bbl and Speer 160 & 175gr SPs. It only lists 1...

I've looked for some reloading info on 7mm RUM using H4831sc, 160 gr Accubonds, 175 gr A-frames and 175 gr X bullets but came up empty. I did find a few online but they were for lighter weight bullets, 150 gr and lower. H4831sc is the slowest powder I could find within affordable shipping/hazmat...

Thanks JD338, I'll try and contact them.

Hi, I have a single shot Savage model 220B chambered for 2 3/4 28 gauge that my grandfather bought back in 1949. On the barrel it shows "Selected Forged Steel". Would it be safe to use current 2 3/4 loads with it? The reason I ask is my son wants to use it. TIA

Yep, your assumption sounds reasonable and probably is right on the money. Anyway, haven't slapped on my 8X leupold on my rifle to see if it still shoots a ragged hole. It's raining and gusty right now and have been busy doing other things. Called the gunsmith about getting compensated with some...

If what Remington's saying is true. It took two weeks for them to repair and send my Ultra back. Yes, I just got it from my gunsmith today! YAHOO, it's a feeling like finding a long lost brother, well, I don't have a long lost brother (I hope) but you get the gist. Anyway, my gunsmith said it...

I'm thinking that it is starting to look a liitle bad for my gunsmith. I called him about the shipping receipts that he said he would look for and he said that he doesn't have any copies for that year he sent out my rifle. Plus a few other things when I talked with him before that's making me...

Unfortunateley Remington doesn't retain shipping information on incoming firearms. Remington will provide me with the shipping information once they send it out. Got all that from the Remington rep. after requesting the airway bill#

Well, I just got thru talking with my gunsmith and he said he'd look into it with Remington. I did request those items that dphilips said I should get from my gunsmith and he said it will take some time to get them since he gave them to his CPA for year end tax purposes. I don't know if he's...

I just received an interesting email from a Remington Consumer Service Team Leader. Either Remington doesn't want to take the blame or my gunsmith has been lying to me. Dear Mr. Ungwiluk, Thank you for your patience while we researched your Model 700 rifle that was sent to us for repair...

Thanks Zeke, I'll think long and hard about your suggestion. It looks like a good starter rifle for my son. Happy 4th of July.
