    375 Ruger Barrel

    Well unfortunately there isn't a great demand for used ER Shaw barrels. Plus the extractor cut is on the left side, so it'll have to be set back and re-timed if someone installs it on a right handed action. That also means the extractor cut will have to re-cut as well as the chamber to get it...

    Need suggestions!

    You're right I have no need as I have multiples of .204, .224, .243, .257, .277, .308, and .338 and one each .358 and .375 caliber rifles. I'm really not looking or needing to fill any gaps in my collection. However, I have a nice action and I'm hesitant to sell it because I know I'll probably...

    Lets start a new build project

    It is a great gift, probably should have said that but I was just addressing my concerns with the squareness of the Classic ADL stock.

    Lets start a new build project

    Have you handled a McMillan stock with a blind magazine? I have the M70 Classic Edge with blind magazine and it is squared off on the bottom. This makes carrying the rifle in one hand pretty uncomfortable. I don't know if the same is true for the M700 stocks as it is for my M70, but you...

    Did that already with a .243 Win and they're doing it with the 6mm Creedmoor. I actually got 3100+ with 105 grain VLD and A-Max bullets, but it doesn't fit the style of rifle I'm imagining. 6mm Rem AI would still be a little faster but I might as well do a 6-284 if I want to maximize the case...

    Wasn't trying to correct you CL, just trying to inform. Besides the .250 Savage was developed by Charles Newton, why not use his 6.5 creation?

    Need suggestions!

    I have a .250 Savage not an AI, and I have a .25-06. However, the .256 Newton is a 6.5 caliber it's just a shortened down 06 case. Kind of a tweener round in the middle of a 6.5X57 and 6.5-06.

    Need suggestions!

    I have this HVA small ring 98 pictured above, and I don't know what to do with it. I have no real holes in my safe I need to fill, so I'm kind of at a loss for what I want to build. Here is my only criteria. 1. Must work with current .473 bolt face. 2. No 7mm or 8mm calibers. 3. No...

    Rifle Stock Question

    I love the look and feel of a wood stocked rifle, especially the feel of the dings and scratches from honest use. However, when I build rifles I more often then not gravitate towards a synthetic. I can invest $450- 650 in a quality fiberglass/Kevlar stock, which more than likely about what...

    Trying a new rifle!

    CL I'd use it on pronghorn and deer, and I'd probably be okay to 300 yards with it. I'd prefer to stay on the minus side of it though. I've used my 6X47 (6mm-222RM) out to 300 on pronghorn and whitetail with 70 grain bullets pretty successfully, the .300 BLK gets that far with about 100...

    Trying a new rifle!

    Set up a 12X12 plate at 300 today and tried the BDC Reticle out. First group on steel was a little high. Adjusted down and held on the 297 yard hash mark acoording to Nikon's ballistic App, a bit happier where the bullets were hitting. I need to shoot the ammo across a chrony to get it...

    Upgraded my RAP with Boyd's stock.

    I never clean a rifle unless the accuracy falls off, or it's going to get stored after a season. I'm pretty sure the Ruger American Predator rifles only come with a factory synthetic stock. In fact I can't think or a single Ruger American that has a wood stock option.

    Trying a new rifle!

    Absolutely no recoil with the brake even with the 220's. I imagine I'll have the same if I get a suppressor for it like planned. Most subsonic loads start out at 1000 FPS or less. However, I have to run supersonic loads if I want to hunt with it in Colorado for big game. Subsonic loads...

    Trying a new rifle!

    Well new to me anyway, found this one on Armslist and picked it up Friday. Came with the case, 148 rounds of ammunition, Nikon P300 scope, rings, bi-pod, Leapers bi-pod adapter, and CMMG SV brake. I'll probably loose the brake soon as I really don't like them, but the rifle was amazingly quiet...

    Ruger Hawkeye M77 All Weather page 2

    Nice rifle, should work well on any game animal you can hunt with it. Keep your BDC reticle simple if you get one, I have two Nikon scopes with the same BDC reticle and they cover up too much of the target to be real precise at 100 yards. I have both Leupold LRD and the B&C reticle and they...

    Which rifles are on your wish list?

    I'd love an Echols Legend in .375 H&H, one rifle to hunt anything with anywhere . I'd settle for the same rifle in .270 though.

    Replacement Mauser triggers

    I don't think Boyd's is selling the Bold trigger anymore. I'd just order a Timney that's what I have always used in M98 Mausers with no issues.
