I probably should look at my log book but I know that mine loved RL15 with either the 140 BT, or the 140 GameKing running fairly fast. Or the 160 AB with H414/W760 for the payload factor.
Your rifle turned out beautiful! Cool wood grain on the McMillan stock. Looks awesome and shoots amazing as well!
Should be a great hunting rifle with that combo.
Mike, wait till you see the impact(s) on the steel plates! It was dark when I finally walked out there and they were all at the waterline mark. The 378 yard plate has a center flapper and it was as close to dead center as possible for the shooting position. PRS Skill type stage. The Shooter...
Eric at Blue Mountain Precision sent me back my build last week and I developed a tact driver of a load, albeit on the mild side since it’s still new and only had 40 rounds through it.
So I stretched it out today to three plates out there, 228, 268, and 378. Dope looked good from the FFP.

I see a NIB Lipsey’s Ruger African 35 Whelen over at RokSlide is For Sale for $1,350.00!
Unfortunately it’s not one of the original African Ruger’s with the three blade 3/4 Rib barrel.
I did see one of those over at AH in 30’06 like I once had. But I think that guy wanted $2,950.00
My friend’s 25/7 PRC built on a Tikka with a 22” bbl was in the 3,150-3,200 fps range with Hornady 134’s behind VV N570 in necked down ADG brass. His final load I watched him put two first round hits on a 12”x12” plate @ 1,200 yards off the back of my PU tailgate!
I’ll break in the bbl with...
I talked with Eric at BMP, he just needs to bed and assemble my 25/7 PRC built on a Borden Timberline Magnum LA, 24” Benchmark .257 1:7.5 twist CF Sendero lite, TT Diamond 2 stage, Hawkins BDL w/Watts extended box, in a MCS T Elite CF stock. I don’t remember what it was going to weigh …. But it...
Now that’s funny! I had a Crossman .177, and a .22 pellet gun that were identical. Plastic stocks, some diamond on the fore end, 10 pumps and they were screaming fast back in the day, 1970’s I don’t remember the first. But everything from Muskrats, Squirrels, Crows, Bobwhites, and a lot of...
Mark built me one of his Ultimate One’s many years ago on a McBros action in 8.59 Galaxy
that was a light weight hammer!! 3,055 fps with a 210 Barnes XLC X bullet. I took a lot of game with that rig.
You should have one of the finest hunting tools available in your hands.
I’d suggest you...
You would have been just as welcome! I except money that Jim Cramer helped make you just as much as the next guy!
Although he’s lost me more money than whatever stock ideas he had! Nike, I could have bought two of these, Estée Lauder I could’ve bought four of these! I guess I’m just a bad...
Thanks, Guy, Blkram and JD338!
Oh I am certain that it will be better to its new owner now! Sometimes a Company just needs a little chance to review their product and make it perfect like it was their own, and proud of it!
No worries, I have half of my relatives living in Canada!
Rifle is Sold Pending Funds from one of our own on here.
Thanks for all the support and just being really good people! 🙏
I’ve been hearing the Cow Elk start talking around my place over the last few days. The temperatures here are crazy high! When the cold air funnels down the mountains surrounding me I could smell them really good too.
I guess it depends on if I hunt the heavy timber, or take a longish less...
I saw a beautiful Whitworth 300 H&H on Guns international yesterday for what I thought was a cheap price! Under $1,300. at a Cabela’s store!!
I always wanted one of these, but I can’t justify buying it...
