How did your new barrel shoot?

Dasher is done and awesome. Now to build a big boy in 300PRC

I didn’t read the whole thread but remember DNR etc don’t need a warrant to enter your property/land.

I find it interesting the OP hasn’t responded. This is clearly a dead idea and link. Sadly.

I agree on the fact that I will always consider shot placement with conditions and what the animal will give me. Depending on angle of the shot etc. I always prefer a double lung whether that is with a bow or firearm. But and it's a big but, I might be in a tree stand or a ground blind...

I went quickly through this as it got off topic a bunch but was this with full power loads or subsonics?

Agreed. I said as much at the beginning that I have. I also said what I have not. I only take shots I know I can make and as of yet I have never lost a deer, bear, or elk. Pot stirring will not change the fact it was a horrible shot.

Have I ever lost a squirrel, duck or turkey in my lifetime? Of Course. As a boy of 12 I once chopped down a old dead tree about 2 feet in diam with an ax to get a squirrel I had made a poor shot on in northern Wis. using a pellet gun(old Crossman 110 pump action, scoped I might add)as a way of...

Fantastic. I used to live up in the Minocqua area when in high school but haven't lived in the state since UW-Milwaukee in 98. Army from 87-2016. Going to be back in the Milwaukee area by July. Currently running 308, 6 Dasher and a 223 DMR all corked out to 1000-1500 here in Colorado...

What is the status of this and others interest in long range shooting? I am moving back to the area and would love to find like minded shooters in the area. Paul

Those look like dogs!!!

That is one nice looking three color stick!!!!!

None of the above. 6 Dasher for me.

Go to a VERY high grit I used above 10000 for mine. along with the spring kit From JP enterprises for a low budget easy to do trigger job. I own multiple AR platforms and this is the only one not sporting a Timney. Pulls at 3.5 lbs. Not as crisp as a Timney or other high dollar trigger kit...

This. It all depends on the conditions and how many people are going for me as gear can then be distributed somewhat. But as it gets colder my weight also goes up.
