    Bullet choices for 270

    The answer is, of course, to shoot the bullet your gun "likes the best." I have 5 270's in various makes. (I am an unabashed gunaphile) Each gun has its own "best" bullet and load. The 270 is famous for what it does with the 130grain. All of my 270's (1:10 twist) like 130's; they like flat...

    The 270 and Reloading

    I am somewhat confused; what about this article is useful for the reloader? What information, experience or insight can be gleaned form "The 270 and reloading?" As an long time owner (I have 5 of 'em) re loader and shooter of 270WIN, 270WSM and 270Wby there is a lot of information to be...

    Recoil lug bedding

    I am a little late to the thread but say full action bedding is the way to go. I know a lot of good shooters who bed only the front recoil lug and tang area. it works for them. It is simple and requires much less masking-off; however, I am for a full action bedding job. if you are going to...

    Beginner with new gun.

    You have plenty of gun to shoot 1000 yds, rest assured. The 7mm is my personal favorite LR bullet and the Weatherby sends them downrange in a hurry. I shoot a "pretty much stock" 7mm Sendero. I have great glass mounted and have worked up some great loads and I seem to do as well as my buddies...

    Do You Own An AR15 Rifle?

    Colt AR 15 HBAR Match .223. Nothing says so sweet a "hello" on the range as the staccato bark of an AR.

    7mm rem mag for long range hunting?

    Hysterical! moose at 800 yards? I would bet that you could "sneak up" on him a wee tad closer than that... unless you hunt him on the Bonneville Salt Flats. I hunt and therefore am obliged to kill as quickly and humanely as is possible. I would take that shot at 800 on a critter as big and...

    Guidance needed - Sendero

    congratulations on the Sendero, you will not be disappointed. I have the same gun, same caliber and had about the same groupings after break in. here are a few suggestions: pull the stock off and look at the bedding block. you will notice a few "rubs" where the receiver is touching the...

    Remmington 700 20" or 26" barrel

    yup, you got the varminter model, not the tactical model. generally, the longer barrel adds a little giddy-up in velocity but the slower twist (1:12) does not stabilize longer bullets as effectively as the 1:9. (N.B! increased velocity does compensate for the slower twist. i.e, the faster...

    Savage long range hunter 7mm

    Sea Duck, you will love your "big 7." Nothing, and I mean nothing, shoots as soft, goes as fast or hits as hard...all things being equal. You will laugh at the 300 WinMag guys at all ranges and save your shoulder at the same time. You have to move into the .338's to get the same energy at...
