That makes 2 of us (well 3 counting my wife). Been here 6 years on a work project that ends next year. We are looking to move back to Pennsylvania and looking forward to the day I can buy an AR, suppressor, pistol with a threaded barrel and extended mags. It really is the Peoples Republic of...

Thats worth buying just for the Lapua brass alone !

A sling is for more than just carrying your rifle over your shoulder. I guess many people have either forgot or dont know how to use a sling properly to shoot. It's indispensable for me as a shooting aid.

I've been using ApexLoad Pro software for a year now and it is a godsend for reloaders. It covers literally every catridge/powder/bullet combination out there. Its a German based program so all the EU powders and cartridges are listed as well as the typical US based. I ran the simulator on a 6.5...

Lodge looks fantastic ! I hope you have a great hunt.

I'll take the Vortex scope cover you have listed in the Pay it Forward thread. Ken [redacted]

I'll take the Vortex bikini scope cover and the other items as well if you want to ship all together.- PM coming

A couple of things I didnt see in the post were: *What are the dates you are going and for how long. *Are you flying on a preferred US carrier for points/miles (?) *Do you have to fly out of Nashville ? Its a 4 hour drive to ATL - It may be cheaper to overnight and leave from there ? *Are you...

I think the SST lineup is one of the more accurate hunting bullets on the market. I have yet to find a gun that won't shoot them accurately with any number of powders. Great for whitetail size game, usually full pass thru penetration and devastating wound channels.

I thought about putting them in a cooler bag with an ice pack to stay cool. But, I'm thinking of trying the NRL Factory class competition next year and there are shoots in all kinds of temps so I let them come up to the outside temp then started to shoot. I didn't see any pressure signs and hate...

I'm working on refining this load for summer practice rounds and see if I can get the SD under 10. Not sure if the heat had anything to do with it since I 4064 isn't as temp stable as some powders.

Good luck ! I haven't seen it for sale in a few years although still in production it sells out as fast as they make it. This was my go to for 270 Winchester loads. I have replaced all my I-4831 loads with H4831SC, it meters much better and is more temp stable. VV N160 is a good substitute as well.

I'm interested. Sending you a DM.

I have the same rifle in 30-06 with the synthetic stock and it is a one hole shooter with all types of ammo. The factory Mannox finish on these rifles is much better than Cerakote in my opinion, nearly indestructible. These rifles are made for hunting - Someone is going to get a great rifle.
