  1. mother nature is a whore this year. last night was our 3rd rain cancellation this month
  2. The Creedmoor was the start of high bc for weight bullets in a factory loading. Not a new concept in chamberings, but kinda new for box ammo. The PRC rounds took it several steps forward, where you are shooting missiles in a saami spec, factory round. There are still plenty of wildcats, or simply lesser known rounds that do similar things though. 280 ackley is a prime example in the Creedmoor sized round.
  3. Idiots need to be called out for their idiocy, so I'm fine with it.
  4. I am 100% for bullying idiots.
  5. Creedmoor guys are a special bunch. The round is really good at what it was designed for, no question. But you'd think jesus himself designed it the way they talk.
  6. In a real court of law, or just a current one?
  7. the current rifle is being built for steel target shooting. it will be too heavy to lug through the woods.
  8. Anyone use McGowan barrels?
  9. My 06 F7 makes more power
  10. Assistance with what?
  11. i love a nice wood stock. i just did a Boyds laminate on my 300 winny model 70. not sure what will go on the 7, but it may be another wood model
  12. we have a 1000 yard range locally, maybe 10 minutes from my shop. but a mile is whole new level, at least for me it is
  13. currently, all of their 7 prc stuff is 22 inch only. i want 26 so i'm either going to try a proof research carbon, or stay traditional with a mcgowan custom barrel in stainless. talking to a friend that works there, i think you'll see the elite precision in 7 next year, but i didnt feel like waiting to find out. they currently do 300 prc so it makes sense the 7 is next
  14. the savage ultralight receiver is exactly what i just ordered. i looked at doing the whole rifle but it's only in a 22 inch barrel and i want longer
  15. Has anyone here had any experience with carbon barrels? Specifically Proof Research?
  16. Well, just got back from the gun shop after ordering a new receiver to start the 1 mile build. I guess you could say things are getting serious.....and expensive
  17. Armed teachers is most likely a no for me. They can't even be trusted to actually do their own job anymore, nevermind protect kids from a shooter.
  18. Or just build a new motor designed for boost to begin with, like they had before yamaha.
  19. absolutely. unfortunately, it's such an easy problem to solve and yet the solution is looked at as racist, biased or whatever term they want to use this week. follow through on all of the existing laws, and the people that do the stealing, selling and shooting of the guns, would not be out in public
  20. i absolutely agree, but unfortunately, the people with the most knowledge about guns, security, etc, are not the ones allowed to have any input, so bipartisan gets thrown out the window.
  21. well, like anything, it depends what they want to report, and what people choose to believe. they highly publicize the mass shootings with any "assault style weapon", while ignoring all the others. chicago has more in one week with handguns than the whole country does in a year with AR's, but that doesnt fit the story line so you'll never hear that stat.
  22. like everything else, those are illegal here. but in terms of accuracy, a lot of the top long range competition uses suppressors so i dont think they harm accuracy in any way.
