    Changing a 7MM RUM?

    I have a custom built from a BDL 7RUM. Strictly hand loads, What ever you do it would be wise to invest in some reloading equipment then there is no worries as long as brass is still available.

    New 6.5 Idea

    .270 WSM All-purpose load

    My problem was the failsafes were to hard & didnt expand I thought the 06 was to slow for them. back to the 270 bullet I really like the Matrix 165 but I think the 1 in 10 may be on the edge of stabilizing them I shoot a 1 in 9 rockcreek and they shoot real good. as far as the load I don't...

    Leupold VX-3 6.5-20

    As for the zero stop, I just took a red sharpie and colored the hash mark so I always know where zero is at a quick glance. Also the Burris signiture rings you can get the most out of your elevation. I myself like the fine duplex I use charts and I dont like the reticle with a cluttered picture...

    How far away will you shoot at a deer?

    depends on what rifle I have my lr rig has much more range than my range finder. (saving for a terripin) the last time I shot a 1000 on steel I put 5 out of 6 in at 1/2 min but we had flags benches gun vise ect lot of variable in the field. I put 700 and thats pushing my range finder a bit...

    6-700yd Mountain deer gun opinions?

    Nobody likes the 270 wsm with the 165 matrix or the new berger 170 I think? suppose to come out this month? you would want a 9 twist or slightly faster but the bc is over .7 it will have enough energy out to 1000 but it sounds like you have decided on th 6.5x284 no complaint there.

Now I go back to my factory rifle with the trigger job I always run out of breath and the creep feels like im pulling an anvil across a metal table waiting...
