I just hold the round in my hand and hit it with a hammer.
In all seriousness... they all have pros and cons.
Stick with what feels right to you.... a better hunt, a better shoot/match will come of
it.
I honestly am indifferent to ANY Weatherby action. Why? Just my tastes. Give me a good #1 falling block, or a LA/Magnum model 700.... and Im happy.
As far as "non-standard" actions go... the action that Nosler uses on the M48s I have taken a shine to... as I own a 6.5x284 and a 280 AI in the Patriot line.
gun)
Anyway....The Nosler is a Howa, or Vanguard action.I keep hearing that.
Nosler says no... and my take is that they are correct.
I've handled my share of rifles... be it high end custom or low end trash( aftterwhich a large amount of purell was used).
They don't feel anything like them... nor look like them ( to me anyways).
Nevermind the fact that Nosler is supposedly using Basix triggers and PacNor barrels... overall, for a semi-custom weapon 1499$ out the door is still a pretty **** nice deal...
Your run of the mill coin flip junker M700 is 1000$ now, sans the Long Range model which is about 699. On a side bar, I picked up one of those in 300 RUM... she does about 1/2 MOA @ 200 yards with the 175 TMK and 93 of RL25.
Your opinion, smartass..
Well, it's been a while since I began this thread so there's an UPDATE:
Last year I bought that 6.5 CM Ruger Precision rifle and it is easily a 1/2 MOA rifle with 140 gr. Hornady ELD-M cartridges. The scope is a Bushnell ERS 3.5 - 21 x 50 with H59 reticle. Great scope!
I've discovered that I'm as accurate with the RPR using my Atlas bipod and CTK monopod on a bench as I am with my cast iron bench rest and rear bag.The monopod is like having micrometer adjustability in getting back on target after each shot.
