The Rifle Next Door. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Pop, Your usual comment would be "this thread is useless without pics." I don't know how to get the little guys to hold those signs though. Is it the Savage 110BA???? We all know how much you like Savage.

Nothing wrong with R-P brass. The 280AI compared to the 7mm is like comparing a '65 Ford GT500 Mustang to a '65 Chevy Corvette. Just a matter of preference. I like the 280AI and the Corvette. Just not as common as the " 7mm mag"

Don't polish it. Patina is worth money. Just ask someone that polished an old coin to make it look better. If you polish it it won't have an original finish and professionals can tell the difference. If your going to keep it and shoot it then it's yours and do what you want.

Sized means to sammi spec. You will need to fire form them to your chamber to "headspace" them. Do you have excessive headspace in your rifle?

The shoulder angle looks all wrong to me. It seems to have a radius. Or, it looks like some one doesn't know how to cut a chamber. Or the 300 wsm was fired in a rifle of a different chamber. If not it couls be as simple as bad brass. If it was realy once fired brass it may have been weakened by...

Bingo.

That is a nice group especially being .105 off the lands. That is a sweet spot for sure. Your yote / rifle pic is awesome. Sell it to savage. :wink:

I have a NCR in 280ai and HAD Nosler foctory loaded 280ai ammo but now it's re-loaded ammo because I shot all of it. :grin: I can give you neck diameters for re-loaded ammo with 140 ab's, 120Ab's and (Nosler will shoot me for this) 154gr Hornady IB's. I can post the measurements tomorrow when...

If you bought it as an investment then make it a safe queen. If you bought it and will never get rid of it and maybe pass it on to your kids then shoot it. I shoot the daylight out of my NCR and I also shoot my comerative remington 280 and 30-06. In fact I had the commerative 06 AI'd. I also...

Your cleaning rod stopped spinning.

I agree about the expense of the 338 lapua. But compared to the expense of the 50bmg and also the potential ban of the 50, the 338 lapua is a great alternative. The 50 cal requires at minimum a new press.

My mom is a vitamin pusher. I have always been a little leery about taking mas quantities ov them. My poor little brother had a kidney stone broke up at the ripe age of 20. :shock: My mom finally admitted that she fed him too many vitamins. But anyway, my eyes are starting to change and I...

I have seen alot of advertizing for them. Have any of you used them and what are your thoughts.

Pacnor makes a good barrel. Enjoy http://www.pac-nor.com/

Hear that. I sweat Hoppe's #9 and piss primers :grin:

I have bedded all of my model 700"s. I would recomend bedding one right out of the box. Float the barrel also. Most pressure points in a factory rifle stock are only there to keep the wood to metal fit looking good when the stock warps. :wink:

Just got my American rifleman this month and read an article about the new Savage in 338 Lapua. I think I may have to part with a few in my collection to add this one. As my teenagers would say....OMG.... 1.29" @ 300 yds with a factory rifle.

I like the 280ai. I am getting pretty close to 400 rounds down the tube. Still shoots like new and I am on the same lot of Nosler brass.
