Agree completely. I've had mine for roughly 15 years now and have taken a number of Elk with it. Yes it does recoil a bit but when you hit an Elk the only place their going is down. I exclusively use 225 grain Partitions or Pro Hunters. Both get the job done quite spectacularly. Ammunition is...
I have two rigs, a Model 700 which is original other than a MacMillin stock in .338 Ultra Mag and a Christensen Arms .300WM. I had a third Rifle, a model 700 with a custom 28 inch barrel (forgot the maker) in 7STW. My longest shooting was 600 yards at my local gun club. Both the Ultra mag and...
Doc, I would also like to say "Thank You" for all the colorful chatter and meaningful information that you put forward. This forum puts the rest to shame.
Guy, my son is the Chief engineer on the "Aluminum Overcast", a B17 Bomber that does tours all over the country. It's down for repairs right now in Florida so he is now filling in as Chief Engineer on a B25 "Twin Tail" Billy Mitchell Bomber. He's been doing this for a number of years and really...
I don't know how many of you have been paying attention to the stupidity that is coming out of the mouth of the guy in the White House but yesterday I heard him say we are going to suffer from high gas prices until the "liberal New World Order" is in place. I haven't heard him mention this...
Guy, a while back we were talking about New Jersey, LEOSA, and all the issues that were taking place if you, as a retired police officer, certified through LEOSA were stopped carrying a handgun. Well, the decision finally came out and the Court is on our side. The NJ supreme court ruled that...
The White House was asked about this and they are totally denying it. They got caught with their hand in the cookie jar and now all of a sudden they know nothing.
I target shoot and hunt with a Competitor Arms 30.06 pistol. It wears a 15 inch barrel/muzzlebrake and a Burris 2X7 mid barrel scope. The action is a Cannon breech which is extremely rugged. I also have a 7MMX08 barrel that I have never used. Changing barrels is extremely easy and any number...
Was at Bass Pro yesterday morning and asked if any primers were in stock. The salesperson showed me Remington large Rifle for $7.99 a hundred. There were five packs of a hundred displayed and he stated that's how they are selling them now. He said they had so much trouble with the same group of...
Doc, I was very hesitant in saying anything at all on this issue but there is so much information going around that is false I thought it was time to clear the air a little bit.
I'd like to say something in regards to this issue. I have a good friend that was there when the whole fiasco started. He was outside the gate when it started, taking videos of the incident from the beginning until they were asked to leave. He told me that the gates were opened by the officers...
I'm running 75 Grains of RL26 with a 180 grain Federal. Primer is a Federal 215M and the Rifle is a Christensen Arms with a 26 inch barrel. Velocity is 3212 and accuracy is great. The only difference with my rifle is that it's been throated to handle the 180 grain Federal at 3.600. The may be a...
Guy, have you ever noticed that Eagles and Ospreys do not get along very well. Where I live in Florida we have a combination of both Birds and a Friend of mine has an osprey nest in a tree on his property. When the Ospreys are nesting with eggs the Eagles harrass the heck out of them obviously...
Very interesting comments which I've enjoyed. I own a Competitor Arms Single shot specialty handgun in 30.06 with an extra 7MM--08 Barrel. It's got a cannon style breech (You turn the breech for open and closing) 15 inch barrel with a muzzle brake (definitely needed) wearing a Burris 2X7 Mid...
