I never thought to take pix when we picked up our steel. By then I was frozen and I just wanted to get back in the Jeep. We beat the steel up pretty good, mostly by my brother's 6.5 CM. I was shooting a 7mm-08 Rem and a 308 Win 5R mil spec. The 7mm-08 and 162 ELD-M will hang tight with the...
I took a few photos while my brother and I were shooting at 1000 yard steel last week. The weather was cold but we heated up the barrels on our rifles !!

I use the 140 Sierra Gameking in my 7mm-08 Rem Tikka T3. It's a sub 1/2 MOA rifle every time out to 500 yds and a real performer on whitetails. The bullet usually dumps them where they're standing.

I too have found that Federal loads the "hottest" ammo in both rifle and shotgun rounds. I have had a few episodes of sticky bolts with Federal ammo in Rem 700s and a Tikka. With their shotgun shells, the recoil is noticeably more harsh than other brands, especially turkey loads. I do prefer...
I'd be extremely satisfied with those groups. Even with the flyers, those are still some impressive shot strings. I think you've got it going!!!!

I now have two of the fixed 10x 42mm SWFA scopes. For the price, they are just amazing. I have one on a 260 Rem and one on a 308Win. I shoot these rifles out to 1000 yds and beyond. They track perfectly and the reticles are great as well. It's hard to understand how these scopes sell for...
Other than a few wind call errors, I was busting targets and rocks out to 800 yds today with the same 243 that shot the above group. I'm really enjoying this little gun right now. I seem to have favorites and at the present time it's the one. I stopped at Cabelas on the way and picked up a...
Straight 10x. 30mm tube, 42 mm objective. I've read some positive reviews so I ordered one today. I figured I'd take a chance for $300. I only own Leupolds and Swarovskis so this SWFA will be like a Kia at an Audi dealership. Has anyone used one of these themselves?

5- shot group at 200 yds from my Tikka T3 Forest in .260 Rem.
It loves the Accubonds as well as 142 SMKs, and 123 Amax. It's hard to beat a Tikka for the money. All I've done to this rifle is install pillars and bed the action. It has a great factory trigger set as light as it will go. This...
I just put together a Rem 700 BDL .243 Win. I dropped it into an HS Precision tan and black stock, bedded the action and recoil lug, and worked on the trigger. I topped it with a Leupold VX-2
