    280AI Rebuild

    I've seen how both of those rifles shoot now so that's even more comforting. How often did you clean during that break in period?

    280AI Rebuild

    Going to load for it when I get my press set up in the next few weeks. Like I said, it shows a lot of potential. Hopefully it drives tacks when load development is over with.

    280AI Rebuild

    I took it to the range on Sunday and found that it had good potential. It didn't initially like the 140gr AB that I had for it, but groups started to tighten up as the barrel broke in, I think. After I was done wasting the expensive ammo, I shot some 280 Rem trophy copper I had in the bag (the...

    280AI Rebuild

    Those are just some factory trophy grade 140gr ABs. I’ll build up a load for this season with 120gr ttsx and H100V if I get the opportunity

    Ammo cheaper than brass.

    I'm going to do it. It'll say "Super-Thirty" on the barrel as well :sneaky:

    Ammo cheaper than brass.

    Now that I say it I really want to make a bastardized 300 H&H. Carbon barrel, McMillan stock, 700 clone action.... hmmm

    Ammo cheaper than brass.

    Orscheln was selling 300 H&H trophy grade for like 30 bucks a box so I grabbed four when I had plans of building one. I wonder where those went

    6.5 Grendel???

    When I had my tack driving 6.5 Grendel DMR that I built, I used CFE223. My longest shot on steel was at 1000 with that little thing. Great cartridge.

    Henry 45-70

    Man I wish Leupold still made the belled LPVO in their 3x line. Pretty rifle, good accuracy.

    Which load would you pick??

    You’re the master, Fotis, and I trust your judgement more than my own, but I will say that 3400 with a 110-120 class doesn’t seem completely unreasonable to me in your case. I’m completely aware that 7mm is few calibers up and the cool affect that bigger bores have on velocity with...

    257 Roberts ready for Antelope

    Sounds like it'd be a daisy in a Tikka long box. I'd AI it if I were to ever build one, but that's just because I hate trimming brass.

    257 Roberts ready for Antelope

    3100 with a Bob is screaming. That's about what a standard 25-06 load will do. Makes me want one.

    7-08 119 Absolute Hammer

    They're fantastic bullets. I also used the 143 in a 280AI for my mule deer last year. He dropped at the shot. It was a frontal heart shot and the bullet exited out on the inside of one of the back legs. All the petals were somewhere in the intestines. No meat was wasted at all, except the heart...

    280AI Rebuild

    It still needs cerakote on the barrel, but it's done! I'm currently inletting the KS stock for the barrel channel and the BDL, so this Christensen Arms Mesa stock is being used for now.

    M70 264 WM FWT Maple stock

    I'm a sucker for curly maple in all varieties, but this is beautiful in its own class. Good pick up. The fact it's flavored in 264 is also very appealing to me

    LH McMillan 700 KS LA stock

    Never used. Bought from a dude on ebay for a rebuild of my rifle, but ended up finding one that better served my purposes. 29 oz. 13.5 LOP. Long action. ADL $350 TYD or best offer.
