Hey @Korndog Been keeping tabs on the shenanigans happening at SHOT during my lunch break every day this week. Just wanted to let you know I'm a little less enthusiastic about eating my leftovers every time I see your profile pic. LOL
Yep, free bore in this barrel is a LOT less than it was in the factory barrel. I had to set the rounds back in my 70gr reloads a good bit to be able to safely chamber and fire them. I ended up setting them back to same length as the factory Rem stuff I was shooting yesterday. In the end I’ll be...
@mo mauser and some others had asked for this, so here it is!
Range Report: Had the opportunity to put my first rounds down the tube of the new build today. In a nutshell, the gun shoots wonderfully!!! Below are the two groups I shot after getting it on paper. The group with the Rem box ammo...
Got the scope bases torqued down to the receiver, scope set, and caps torqued down when I got home. I hope to get some rounds down the tube later in the week.
Sorry for the delay getting this out to everyone, but as promised...here is the story. To catch those of you up that don't remember/didn't know, I realized I shot the barrel out on this gun early in the '18 deer season. I bought the gun in 1998 and have shot more deer with it over the years...
Ive got big news! Got the call from Joe Collier yesterday that my 22-250 is out of surgery and ready to come home!! I’ll be leaving here in a few min’s to go get it. I’ll add some pics and more details about all that was done later this weekend. Ahh, so excited!!
Recently did a scope swap on the 7mm Mag. Got the chance to put some rounds down range over the weekend to get it back on paper and driving tacks. Went from a 40mm bell to a 50. That required higher scope mounts than the original set up and totally screwed up my cheek weld. For those who...
I think Timney is going through a rough patch right now. I have not heard of your exact problem but in the last 6 months I know of issues with 8-10 of their Calvin Elete triggers having failure to reset issues. Timney initially blamed that issue on the finish/coatings on the parts wearing but I...
I like to give credit where it’s due, so I wanted to brag real quick on Collier Rifles (https://www.collierrifles.com/). Joe Collier runs a little gun shop outside of Millen Ga where he builds custom guns and does gunsmith work as well. I recently had him thread the barrel on my Rem 700...
I'm not gonna make it this year. If I'm back in the rotation next year (don't see a reason why I will not be back) we should try to have an SHOT ODT M&G for all who are there.
