I’ve got to go with 7-08 and 338 Remington ultra mag. If only one the 7 mm mag

I would like the code also. Thanks

I just bought some Federal Fusion ammo so I could use it and save the brass for reloading. I am hoping a 260 grain gas checked bullet downloaded to 454 velocities will be accurate in it. I purchased this barrel for my Grandson and I am sure he can't handle the 460 recoil at his size and...

I got one of the pro hunters a while back used but great shape in a 270. Shoots moa or better and added a 300 win mag barrel for it. Action and barrels are ss. Had the action reworked at EABCO and it does even better. Had some decent shipping deals today an I ordered a 460 barrel to the list. I...

Sparkyv I only had to throw all the charged 270 cases out. Hadn’t seated the bullets yet. This is one mistake I just knew I’d never make. But even after years of doing this I did it.

For many years reloading I put one canister of powder next to dispenser. Electronic or else. Was loading 300 win mag an switched over to 270 and didn’t see the older 1 lb of H1000 behind my Hornady powder charger. Used H4831 Sc for the 270 and got the two powders mixed up. Two new containers...

I’ve been all over gun broker and cheapest I can find on buy it now is at $1199. Can’t find any web sights in $900 range. Where did anyone see these at those prices.

Nice to know that lower price. Even what I had saw on line was closer to 1250. Our gun store is about the same out the door with tax. Glad I asked here first. I’m not looking for light. Just not 12 lb Sendero heavy.

That’s a great restoration job. Good looking gun. Planning on doing something with an older rough Savage 99.

I’m a huge Tikka and Sako fan but I’ve been eyeballing the Winchester WE in 300 WSM at my local gun shop. I’ve got a 338 Remington Ultra Mag in a Sendero. Way too heavy for totin around gun. Got my 300 Win mag barrel for my TC encore but hate taking the 270 barrel on and off. I had the 300 WSM...

I’d have to disagree on the hunting rifle to be only so accurate. I don’t expect 5-10 round clover leafs but 3 at a minimum. Cold barrel of course. The 260 got some bad reputation for the 9 twist it originally came in. In my own experience I get more velocity from the 260. Not a great lot but...

I started with the Tikka 260 CTR. It was so accurate it was almost boring to reload. My first 1000 yard rifle. I’ve got the same in the 6.5 cm and I do like it but the 260 all the way for me. I don’t think I’ve used 260 brass more than a handful of times. Bought 243 brass and easy enough to...

Out of ordinary a 35 Whelen and a 458 Win Mag both in bolt actions. Both Ruger’s if possible.

VP 9 and TC Encore pro hunter in 270.

I’d go with a good barrel scrubbing. I shoot a lot of bench rifles and am a stickler for groups. I might pull a bore snake through every 100 rounds or so with a dry patch. When sub moa groups open up I do a thorough cleaning with Butchs Bore Shine. Then plan on wasting 10 bullets or so to get...
