    Is the Sendero SF II a good start on a LR rig ?

    I have that trigger in my m700 5r .308. I adjusted it a couple turns down to about 3 pounds No problems, I really like it.

    Is the Sendero SF II a good start on a LR rig ?

    Regarding the .300rum being alot for a deer at 30 yards...check out my thread on 200grn accubond exit wound in the bullets section. Mine was at 50 yards... The OP mentioned using a .300rum for long range target shooting. Well, maybe for a few shots now and then. The RUM's and other extreme...

    Rem. Sendero 7mm mag

    If yours is the new model Sendero it will be the externally adjustable Xmark pro trigger. I like mine. I tuned mine while at the range to be 3 pounds. I would recomend a EGW base and Burris xtreame tactical rings. Great value there and VERY well made and beefy. On another rifle I have...

    exit wound from 200grn Nosler accubond

    Yeah it ALMOST got the front shoulder. I lost just a wee bit of backstrap. Definatly no tracking on this one:) Im wondering if the 200 grain Barnes triple shock would be a little tougher constructed, less destructive incase I get a close in shot again.

    exit wound from 200grn Nosler accubond

    .300 RUM in a Remington Sendero SFII. 200grn NAB over 87grn RL25. 50 yard shot on a medium sized buck. I know, way to close for this rig but he walked out right next to my blind and I didnt see the point in waiting to see if he would walk farther out. Placment was high on the neck. Bullet...

    Throphy Bonded Bear Claw bullets?

    What happened to these bullets? Most of the places I shop dont stock them anymore. Federal came out with the Trophy bonded tipped in their loaded ammo. Would be nice to see these available to reloaders. The fusion would be nice as well. I would suspect Speer is making these two bullets for...

    300RUM help

    What are you intending on shooting with it? I had luck with Reloader 25 and 200 grain Accubonds. I am going to try Retumbo again and start out low. People here recommended 93-95 grains for the 200ab. That did not work for me.

    Info re: Carl Zeiss 6-24x72mm

    So far its outstanding! Going to take it to the range again next week, then hog hunting in october and november. That will give me a idea of its performance in low light, which is the reason i purchased it.

    Help me determine what is causing my runout!

    Yes the runout numbers I posted were what I was reading on the gauge. So TIR would be half that. Runout on cases right out of the chamber was almost nothing as would be expected. I am using the standard Sinclair gauge, the roller bearing type. Yes the cases were inside neck chamfered...

    Help me determine what is causing my runout!

    Am loading once fired brass (batch of 50 Winchester) out of a Remington M700 in .308 Winchester. Measuring runout with a Sinclair runout gauge. Runout started at half a thousandth to 1.5 thousandths right out of the chamber. Sized them with a Lee Collet die. Most ran 1 thousandths to 3...

    Info re: Carl Zeiss 6-24x72mm

    Well the brown truck delivered the scope today. I mounted it on a Remmy 700 with a varmint contour barrel. Using a EGW standard moa base, i used the badger 1" rings. Barely any clearance between the objective and barrel! I thought might have to get a cheek piece extension, but initial impression...

    Info re: Carl Zeiss 6-24x72mm

    Well I have ordered a Hensoldt 6-24x72. Almost had to sell my left n#$% to afford it.... When it arrives I will advise on how it compares to the rest of my scopes.
