the 6.5 creedmore is one of the two rifles i'd like to purchase this year. I have been checking around, and although ruger still list it in their catalog i can't seem to locate one?

i never really ran into this problem before simply because i usually never mix brass between rifles. As noted above brass that was fired from this rifle alone ...chamber in and out fine. I fully understand your concept of the case bulging above the belt. I guess i just never ran into the...

austino33 best of luck to you!!.....buy the best equipment you can afford.....practice, practice , practice.....take a lot of the stuff you read on the internet with a grain of salt....although there are some guys that know what their talking about...there are also a lot of guys that don't...

assuming in the original post the statement was..a rifle capable of reaching out to 700 yds..if i'm not mistaken using the 1800 ft lbs of energy limit..the 7mm mag will fall below that with the best loads somewhere around 800 yds. keeping this in mind, i'm assuming your talking about shooting...

checked it out and although the die seems like a good idea. i'm not 100% sure its necessary. I shoot a number of belted mags. This is the first time iv'e ever encountered this. Normally i use the same brass in each rifle..i was just baffled as to why i could not resize them to work...By using...

probably won't change the mounts unless i have to.. Almost all my scopes have eyepieces that are shorter than the older weaver scope thats on it..seems like a new shorter scope will solve the problem.

one of the things that concerns me when we start talking 500+ yard shots on big game is the mentality that all you need is a bigger rifle. The original post was 270 vs 7mm mag........but the truth of the matter is just simply moving up to a 7mm mag from a 270...or 300 mag or 338 or whatever...

thanks larrywillis i'll check that out..

J E custom actually after posting this thread i was thinking exactly that same thing..it would be a crying shame to mess around changing stocks on a gun that shoots and looks so good. I had a hunch that the problem could be solved simply by different scope mounts or scope. so i decided to...

first question. i have a custom 7mm mag built on a argentine mauser 98 ,09 action, 26" barrel...super, super accurate..i mean like out of the ordinary accurate...here is the deal...i also owned a 7mm in a savage. This custom gun will NOT! chamber shells that were shot out of the savage. And...

i guess another option would be a drop in synthetic stock..i prefer a nice wood stock. But i will say i really like the feel and fit of the hogue overmolded stocks, and i think you can buy them aluminum pillar bedded. I may go that route if they fit up ok...i'm open to suggestions...this gun...

couple years ago i purchased a custom 7mm rem mag..it is built on a 1909 argentine action..and has a custom 26" barrel. And a very nice thumbhole stock the first time i shot it off the bench at 100 yds the first shot hit right around an inch high. Cool i thought its sighted in good. I shot the...

two guns on my list this year...one will be some type of 6.5, the other will more than likely be one of these in the 257 wby sdkidaho i'd like to here more about the one ole santa brought you.:D....how does it shoot ect..

having shot the various super mags and love them all. I will say with the proper bullet the 7mag will kill elk as far as anyone has any business killing one. Shooting paper or steel at 600 + yards is one thing..if you miss or your calculations off a bit..you adjust and shoot again..but with an...

just watched a overview on the new series 2 vanguard...a 257 wby might be in order in the near future...anyone know if they are available over the counter yet?
