Dr mike, they work well.

Thanks for posting those scott, appreciate it.

short action, your not changing the length of the case just the diameter with the ackley, My theory is this the ackley is not known for its smooth feeding, so the further away from the chamber the more problems it creates. I shoot the 140 vld in my .260 AIAW exsclusively and have no problems...

Thanks scott, I did shoot a highpower match this weekend with the AI and was humbled. The best i could do was a 195 9x. I rarely shoot sling unsupported like that, but I did find another part of my game that needs improvement. I did get to score a guy that shot a 199 12x with iron sights and a...

2800 should not be a problem with a 29" barrel and H4350, I am getting that out of my .260 with a 24" barrel. I understand the .260 has a bit more capacity but the 47 runs at a higher pressure. The two are nearly i dentical, having owned both I havent seen much of a difference between the two in...

Wind may be causing this, wont take much of a wind variation to throw the impact off,canting will cause some horizontal abberation, your grip, cheek weld, and shoulder to buttstock marriage will most likely be the culprit. Think of your shooting form as a golf swing and try to duplicate the...

The RO's at the snipershide cup were issued the steiner tacticals for spotting hits. I got to look through them and thought they were in the same ballpark as my geovids. Steiner is also putting out some top tier scopes as well.

Actually Hegland, I would go to africa just to shoot baboon. From what the PH I was talking to said it sounds like huge fun. Ruark did mention his brevial experience with the .220 swift in use enough gun.

4 1/2 pounds? I think my scope rings. and bi-pod weigh more than that.

Thanks DF, only a matter of time for joel to win one.

the 22-250 is fine for deer and antelope, I used a 22x47 lapua last year to take both. However i was also using an 80 grain vld going 3400 fps to do that, a bit of a difference in regards to terminal performance. I am not saying the 22-250 will not work in that arena because employed correctly...

I think you may want to look at the new generation geovid leica has released. From what i have heard from two different guides here in montan that have recently had a chance to use them, leica hit this one out of the park on two counts. 1 the glass is better and the ranging capabilities are far...

Interested in the ABLR for hunting myself, can you shoot past 600 in your area? I would love to see if the claimed .bc, bullet impact, and a ballistic programs firing solution are on the same page. keep us posted please.

I think your package sounds good, i would look at the .243 instead of the 22-250. Identical platform, just more options and energy involved with the .243 in the event of a shot past 300 yards "antelope and deer".

Thats interesting guy, if your efficient with the .308 and you appear to be the .260 will exploit that. I won a benchmark barrel at the match before this in jordan and ordered a 1-9 .308 barrel "heavy palma" that i am going to set up on my 6x47 platform. I will be shooting the .308 at a few...

Thanks guys, the .260 is a great one and used alot in the precision rifle and tactical matches. 2800 with a 140 vld in the .612 bc range is quite efficient. If I built a sporting rifle strictly for antelope and deer it would either be be a 6.5x47 or a .260. I have owned both and the only reason...

Thanks mike and sask, this is what i will be hunting with this year, a bit heavy but the eberly pack takea a bit of the labor out of it. Mike I have used this .284 "with a different stock" at a few matches this year and I will say that the .284 with the 180 vld is one of the most predictable and...

The tactical interventions sling or TIS works well, the quick cuff goes on your arm and the sling quickly clips into if need be. Handy for shooting off of sticks or when you need more stability from a non supported firing position. The sling never has to be taken off the the rear stud or hook to...

A poor man is wise to buy top tier brass from the start.

Twenty four people shot that match, pretty good turn out for a first event. I have noticed alot of people talk a good game but few actually come out and employ their skill set. The course consited of sixty targets from 140 yards "offhand" out to 1205 yards "prone" and pretty much everything in...
