I recently acquired a Remington 700 ss mountain rifle in 6.5 creedmoor and it is light but it is incredibly accurate as well. Have several factory loads and my hand loads shooting in one hole groups. I ended up picking up a 2nd one and got rid of my 2 Kimber Montana rifles which were very nice...
Ya that little rifle of mine shoots. I loaded up several types of bullets and it shot several different bullet weights extremely well. I need to get some more if I can find it
Congrats on the new rifle! I have never owned a Christiansen but my buddy does and I have shot it, they are very nice rifles. Enjoy it and the 6.5! I have 2 Creedmoor rifles and they are becoming my favorites. It will do fine on elk as I know 4 guys locally that have taken elk successfully with...
I like the fusion ammo very much and it’s been very accurate. I picked up a new Remington 700 Mountain rifle in 6.5 creedmoor this morning. First group at 100 yards with Fusion 140gr after bore sighting it and I was impressed
i agree with LoonWulf at those distances pick your poison. i practice at 500 yards with my hunting rifles which all 3 are Kimber Montanas which i prefer cause they are very light and i usually hike in quite a distance to get away from people so the lighter rifle is the better option in my...
all the calibers you mentioned are great. i prefer my 325 wsm and i have owned & hunted with every caliber you mentioned minus the SAUM. the 325 it is a great caliber in my opinion. i can easily hit 8x8" steel at 500 yards, i took it out the other day at my local range and started on the 500...
i live in bear country and hike all the time. I mostly carry my glock 20 loaded with 220gr hard cast. I know its not the perfect set up but I can draw it fast and be on target to accurately put rounds down range. I do practice a lot with it. I also have several big bore revolvers both 44mags...
I have owned several of each. the 338-06 will have less recoil than the 35 Whelen as others have stated. I didn't personally see any difference between them on game or a 30-06 with quality bullets. I just sold my last 338-06 a couple weeks ago and it was my favorite rifle but not because of...
i like them both and own both but if I just had to choose one it would be the 45 Colt. its easier to find factory ammo from mild to wild for a non reloaders standpoint. plus some 44 mag lever guns don't feed well with 44spl and have to be tuned to run them both.
I would get a Ruger 77 Stainless in 300 win mag topped with a Leupold vx3 3.5-10×40. Great rifles and have been very accurate. I did upgrade one to a hogue stock full bed block that i picked up ebay cheap. The other one has a zytel boat paddle stock. The 300wm has served me well I lived in...
I have 2 rifles in 30-06 that have served me well. since moving to Alaska I have bought a 300WSM and a 338WM. I have been shooting them a lot and I like both calibers. the 300WSM has a muzzle brake and it kicks like a 243, its a Winchester control feed rifle. I have reloaded rounds for it...
I like both 375 Ruger and 375 H&H. I live in Alaska and I can tell you from where I work that a lot more Ruger ammo is sold than H&H same goes for rifles. every place up here stocks both. I see a lot of used H&H rifles for sale as well. I don't own either anymore but I would take either. I...
the Winchester in the photo looks like a Coyote model which should have stainless medium weight barrel. I would do the trade in a new york minute lol. I have one in 243 and its a tack driver. also in my opinion worth more than the savage.
my buddy has gone to Alaska for a moose hunt the past 5 years and he always uses his 338-06. he has always come back with one and goes on a guided hunt on horseback. last year he took one at just over 230 yards put it through both shoulders. I unfortunately don't remember the load he used but...
