I started off my hunting career with a 7mm Remington Magnum. It never failed me but eventually I was bitten by the "bigger and better" bug. I switched to a 300 win mag which I believed would serve me well with a little more knock down power, if I ever made it to Alaska to hunt big bears.
I...
Guys, this will be practically ancient question, but... :-)
My smith gave me few boxes of the old Barnes X 175gr flat base bullets (no bands on it). I like to try it with the Norma MRP-2. I already have sorted the bullets for base-to-ogive length - surprisingly accurate. The next step, I've...

Just curious if anyone has shot a 6.5 prc and how the recoil is Vs a 6.5 creedmoor? I have a 7mm rem mag with a muzzle break 26” barerel shooting 162 grain eld-x using a Zeiss conquest 4-12 scope and I just can’t quite get the groups tight I don’t know what it is? I’m just thinking human error...
I bought a Browning 7mm Rem long range last fall with 1:9.5 twist barrel. I now see browning is now making them with 1:8 twist. I haven't shot mine yet as I haven't decided what scope to put on it, and busy fishing. Was wondering if it would pay to trade it for one with the 1:8 twist?
Currently have a vanguard getting rebarrelled with an 8twist proof. Going to change bottom metal to open the mag up to 3.7”
Just waiting on 180eldms and brass to come in so I can make up a dummy round and get it to my smith.
