I have the 284 for hunting and a 6.5x55 for paper (and the eldms for both), I've always been skeptical about the 6.5 at distance but I was surprised by the numbers. Outside the size of the wound...

Really, the Tikka stock has to be the best budget stock by miles, they are full of fiber and remarkably rigid while your low end Howa stocks are shocking and definitely need opening up to give a...

Someone stateside said the "difference between the 308 and 7mm08 is the 162 Amax", the other difference is probably the 120 grain BT. Its amazing the power of marketing, there is something in me that...
