Hi Folks,
I appreciate your time and expertise here. I am building a 7-08 for my son on a Rem 700 SA. We hunt in Western US in mostly mountainous terrain so weight is a factor (he's 14 and 140 lbs...not super athletic). I'll be going with McGowen barrels (had great success with them) and my...
Just wanted to brag a bit…
Another succes in the books, for our whitetail season, for my oldest son, and for the 135gr .308" Apex Outdoors Afterburner.
This morning my 13yo boy made a great shot with my coaching and help. A group of does popped out of the woods about 120 yards from us, with a...
I’m looking to get my dad a new gun for Christmas and want to spend 2k or maybe a little over that on something. My dads got an old mark v in 300 wby that he’s shot everything from Alaskan moose to wolves with and he’s taken me and my sister on tons of hunts and been successful almost every time...
I want to start by saying that I have never been a copper bullet guy, I have always shot cup and core lead bullets and never really had any intentions of going away from that. Recently I came across these McGuire Ballistics Copper Rose bullets and I saw the great BC and they caught my attention...
I have a 308 FN SPR with a 6x24x56 MOA crimson trace optic. Weapon zero is at 200 yds, I run out of clicks on the scope close to 1000yards, what can I do to gain additional yardage? I have high rings on the scope, close to 150 clicks up and 100 down is what’s left.
Hey everybody, I wanted to start this thread to see everyone’s load development method(s) and what works for them. I’ve tried many methods including OCW, modified versions of OCW, the “Satterlee” method, my own version of both combined, and I’ve witnessed shooting buddies performing long range...
I've been deciding on a .30 caliber longer range gun for a bit of time now. By long range I mean around 2000 yards. Currently my choices are between .300Win, .300PRC and a modified .30 Nosler. I already have the action I plan to use so .300 Norma is off the table for me.
After talking to a...

I’m looking to build a custom 300 RUM based off a Remington 700 action, I kinda have an idea of what I want to do but I wanna hear other people’s ideas, what stock, barrel, trigger etc would you use. Also I wanna keep this gun fairly light, I just wanna hear some different ideas!
Has anybody ever built a custom 7.82 (.308) Lazzeroni Warbird. I’m interested in this round and as a hypothetical I wanna know if someone has ever built one and how they did it, what receiver, barrel, and stock did you use? I’m aware that it isn’t the best round but I’m not worried about that...
Recently moved and I am not going to have time to get any reloading done before the season comes. What is the best box ammo to buy that’s shows the most accuracy at long range distance for a 33-378
I recently interviewed a friend of mine to know what his experience has been like hunting with electric bikes. You can check out the article here: Hunting with Ebikes
Hello LRH boys and gals,
yesterday I've received a brand new Sauer 100 XT in 6.5CM which was Black Friday hard to resist deal. What a toy for an aging boy! )
The choice of 6.5CM caliber was mainly to have a "do it all rifle" which would be also forgiving when you misjudge the distance while...

Hello,

Hello folks, I am looking for some advice with a scope for long range target shooting. I am starting to get into long range shooting and I am looking at getting a decent scope for it. I currently have a Leupold VX-6HD 3-18x44 with the fire dot duplex reticle. It came with the rifle I am...
