I certainly don't want a Fraser myself But would love to see the build quality and engraving because Daniel Fraser Co was perhaps the very best gun finishers.

Loaded 100 rounds of 44gr 2208. Thought with 45gr it was going to be too full. Using 150gr Sierra GMK. Seemed to seat well. Mostly PSD cases. 45gr the upper limit?

Just recently bought a 22" .308 with the suppressor it has sygnificantly less recoil than the 18" one it's replaced and is hardly anymore than my 20" 22-250. The .308 is still one of the cheapest to...

A new hunter will read this thread and pick a suppressed Tikka T3 in 308 He will then live a happy and fulfilled life, the end.
