    Good idea to test first before you buy - I just finished one of the lighter 7 PRC builds I've done. 23" Barrel light sporter profile, a bit heavier than the original tikka barrel - Tikka stock. Its...

    Hunter_Nick there is not a lot off recoil on a 7mm rem mag if using a suppressor. My now 13yr old has been shooting mine for a couple years. But i understand why you want to try before out laying...

    The older Winchesters that are suitable for smokeless loads and jacketed projectiles were introduced during the mid 1890's (it varies slightly from model to model) and the barrels are marked 'Nickel...

    I still get better velocity with 2206 than 2208 but that powder space with the long throat is key to the tikkas shooting the 80s in my opinion mines a laser beam with the 80

    Back to the 257R Im really enjoying it. Step up from the usual .223 but not so much as my 300saum or 270wsm. The 115 Nosler BT absolutely slays deer (2930fps). This one was about 120 yards...

    Yep, back about 1995 I built one on a medium action BSA Hunter, though it was an Ackley Improved version. Would send 100gr Hornady or Nosler BT out at just over 3300fps with 2213. I tried 115gr BTs...

    Terrible roar. Haven't shot a real stag. Have passed on scrubby 8 point reds and smaller Fallow. Have only seen one decent Fallow. Saw the good buck last night but he gave me the slip. This...
