    Why No Love for The .308 Winchester

    I like the 308 as well. It’s a great little caliber for deer. I own several and have a Ruger #1 at the gunsmith now getting rebarreled to 308.

    Bucket List - What’s your three?

    I would like a Ruger #1 RSI in 308. I will eventually find one when I have the cash.

    Should I? 6.5x 280 AI

    I need to stay off this site. I have all the components except barrel to build a 700 Sendero and all these caliber options keeps my head spinning.

    Rifles that Need to be Hunted (or loads developed for) in 2025

    Now I found a beautiful Ruger 77 RSI walnut/stainless in 275 Rigby in back of the safe. The guy sold it to me because he couldn’t bring himself to fire it. I need to work up a load for it with 140gr NBT’s.

    Rifles that Need to be Hunted (or loads developed for) in 2025

    Blkram, I keep eyeballing the 22 Hornet Low Wall when they pop up. I don’t have a 22 cal centerfire in the safe. My brain kept coming back to this thread last night when I couldn’t sleep. I realised I have quite a few more unfired rifles in the safe including a beautiful #1 B in 6.5 Creed. I...

    question on neck bulge 30-06: RESOLVED

    That’s exactly what I did when I pulled some old loads in my 243 when I was working a new load. Ground the pin down and ordered a replacement pin.

    Glad I sent my #1 to Paul to get rebarreled and a Jard trigger.

    Hornady Cam lock puller

    I didn’t like the Grip Rite puller. I have had surgery on both wrist and some arthritis in my hands and on heavy crimps I can’t squeeze the handles hard enough to keep a grip on the bullet when I started pulling with the press. I much prefer the kinetic hammer method.

    Barrel spec recommendations

    Picked up the new rifle from the FFL this morning. The weight and barrel length balance beautifully for me when shouldered. Going to keep the barrel length at 26 inches with the Varmit contour and go with the 1:10 twist for the 308. Going to call the gunsmith next week and finalize the details.

    Barrel spec recommendations

    Decision 2025 is in !!! After consideration and some research I have made a barrel decision. Going with a 26 inch Varmit contour since that is what the rifle currently has and a 1:10 twist. After Guy’s comment I went to the safe and pulled a few #1’s and lined them up for a look. The 26 in...

    Barrel spec recommendations

    Just picked up a Ruger #1 V Stainless/Laminated in 204 Ruger. I purchased it with plans of replacing the barrel with a 308 . Going to keep the varmit profile. Question is barrel length and twist, plan on shooting 150-180 grain bullets. Not going suppressed so I don’t need a short barrel and...
