  1. Has anyone had experience with the Mauser M18 in 6.5 PRC?

    https://www.eurooptic.com/Mauser-M18-Savanna-65-PRC-Threaded-1-2x28-Bolt-Action-Rifle-M18S65PT.aspx Looks like the updated M18 is now 900+. I would be looking at $600 or less for the original Mauser M18 that was on sale for so long.

  2. Cross reference for .22 lots?

    I think I saw where Whidden Gunworks is offering lot testing for SK now. I run a lot of SK and sometimes you find a lot of SK Standard+ that outshoots a lot or SK Rifle Match, etc. Unfortunately, hit and miss. I know some that buy RWS R50 with a brick of 500 of ten samples of 10 lots then buy...

  3. Has anyone had experience with the Mauser M18 in 6.5 PRC?

    I had a new hunter join my hunting group a few years ago, I talked him into ordering one(we go to Wyoming hunt mule deer/antelope). 65PRC just hit market. Got through EuroOptic. Goal was an inexpensive first hunting rifle with solid performance. It seems like a solid rifle - especially for the...

  4. 6mm ARC AR15

    Shot PRS match Saturday with one of the top "Gas Gun" competitors. He was running a full custom large frame AR in 6 GT. Just FYI as another data point.

  5. 6mm ARC AR15

    Hornady and others offer free ballistic apps that will let you play with those.

  6. 6mm ARC AR15

    That chart shows some of the difference. 6mm ARC was designed to take advantage of the higher BC 6mm projectiles like the 108ELDM. 6mm MAX apparently has issues with the "longer" 6mm projectiles (like the 108ELDM) and seems physically constrained to 80-100 grain projectiles (yes it will shoot...

  7. 6mm ARC AR15

    What exactly are your seeking? AR for target or competition? Hunting? General replacement for 5.56? Short barrel vs long barrel? Suppressed or un-suppressed? I ask because there is a host of options to 5.56 in small frame ARs and most have a niche. Depending on use (and logistics of reload vs...

  8. Shot 2024 thread

    I think I read somewhere of big leadership and staffing changes to improve CS and win back customers. They have a big hole to dig out of - they are in between "off the shelf rifle" pricing and "custom/semi-custom pricing" - their customers may drop down and buy Bergara, Tikka, etc. or move up to...

  9. Shot 2024 thread

    The new Leupold Mk4HD line that was announced just before SHOT. As mentioned above the new DD 9mm.

    There is a Tikka 280AI prefit barrel floating around here. Add a Tikka action and then pick a stock/chassis.

    Let’s talk about custom hunting rifles

    Easy to build your own custom rifle now with Tikka and Aero Solus at the "less expensive action" to "sky is the limit" cost actions are availble also. Lots of prefits available or even barrel nut options for "non-prefit" actions. As stated earlier, "Nine Run Gun" builds awesome rifles. There...

    AK47 modern in today's conflicts and Q about ARs

    The US weapons left behind in Afg are definitely being used in Gaza and other hot spots. Watch for our weapons provided to Ukraine to show up also (sold on Black Market). Ukraine getting a lot of M4ish weapons too - there is going to be a shortage of 223/5.56 as Ukraine and Israel (and the...

  13. 6mm ARC AR15

    Not sure about 65Grendel barrel life less than 6ARC - I would expect 6.5 life to exceed 6mm life with similar powder weights (which they are).

    I bet M4s are in inventory for a very long time.

    Army Marksmanship Unit match grade ammo requirements for 6.8x51mm

    I think 277 Fury exists to better defeat modern body armor at distance as US war plans rotate from "war on terror" to peer/near peer threats aka China and Russia. Truth is out of millions of uniformed military, very few get in harms way to shoot at enemy. Every Soldier and Marine does not need...

    Army Marksmanship Unit match grade ammo requirements for 6.8x51mm

    AMU shoots in competition to market the Army "brand" - they were at big 2 day PRS match this weekend and AMU shooter won among the best PRS competitors in US. Doubt he was shooting 277 Fury; however, I am sure there are other events where AMU may choose to shoot 277 Fury as "proof of concept"...

    Weatherby 307 Range XP

    I have a Browning X Bolt in 26 Nosler that is a speed deman. Harvested a nice mule deer in Wyoming with it. On super special sale at Cabelas as they were closing out the 26 Nosler. 26 Nosler ammo hard to find but I shoot reloads out of it - 127 LRX at 3300 fps.
