    Christianson Rifles

    I've got 3 Ridgelines. 2 of them shoot under MOA the other is still in box. The thinner wrist of the stock takes some getting used to. I've read online about issues like those above but have not experienced them myself. So far I have no buyers remorse.

    Effectiveness of the 35 Remington.

    My grandfather hunted with a 35 Rem for many years. It was that or his 300 SAV in a 99 for the last 30 years he hunted. I had a Marlin 336 in a 35 Rem for a few years and then let it go. I wish I wouldn't have done that. I do have a Sav 99 in a 300Sav that I think I will carry for a few...

    A co-worker who is into the long range game. He has competed while living in OK. He is talking me into a 22 Creed custom. Using Impact action and barrel of choice. He can assemble all the pieces. This would be the most $ I would have into a gun. It's a coyote gun. I could deal with this...

    95 gr Ballistic tip or 100 gr Partition for deer out of the 243?

    We have been using 243 with both bullets for many years. If in heavy cover lean towards the PT, For everything else either one is fine. I personally use the 95 BT in mine. The 95BT has a tapered jacket. Look at the photo. It mushrooms and hangs together surprisingly well. I've been very...

    Swarovski z5 3.5-18x44 BT

    I own two of the Swarovski 3.5-18x44 BT. One with the turret you are purchasing. Very happy with scopes. Just remember it's only one turn of the turret. Great for a hunting rifle.

    Browning BAR Shorttrac

    I purchased the Walnut version in a 243W for my wife and I liked it so well I grabbed another in a 300WSM. It shoots 180 PT around 1" at 100yds. Just 3 shot groups. Its fairly light with a Vortex Razor LH on it. Its one of the few rifles I own that's not a bolt gun. Its the only BAR I've...

    338 Cal Range Day

    That 338 Federal has all ways been a favorite since they came out. Deer and Elk probably don't like them so much. My groups with my Sako has always been in the 1" - 2" . I'm now working loads for a Sav 16 and it is more promising.

    What does "accurate rifle" mean to you?

    I've always considered MOA as an accurate rifle for my hunting. As I'm starting to learn "Long Range" the "MOA" should be cut in half for consistent grouping. I had a 338 Fed that was a 1.5 MOA and I took Whitetail and Elk with that gun out to 200 yds with confidence. Now that being said I...

    270 load good enough for elk?

    Myself and one of my hunting buddy's have taken many elk with the .277 bullet. Take your shot in the right place and all is well.
