Sako rifle up for trade.

(1 posts)

I am looking for a high end 243 or at least equivalent to my Sako. This is an AV 1980's model, it has been fired less than 400 rounds. I added a grip cap and forend tip and refinished the stock it looks good but really needs to be rubbed out. It has a Pachmayr recoil pad and comes with OEM rings. Bases are integeral, gun shoots small MOA. Let ...

TR accessory rail

(9 posts)

Just purchased a new PA-08TR shotgun and am considering the Weatherby TR Accessory Rail. The description's rather vague but it appears to replace the magazine tube endcap and obviously does away with the front swivel stud.

Any experiance with or information about this accessory would be appreciated.

regards,...

Factory 7mm Wby 160gr Accubond OAL

(6 posts)

Does anyone in Wby Nation happen to have a factory loaded 160gr Accubond load that they could use to accurately measure the overall length?

I'm interested in handloading this for my Dad's 7mm Wby, and will likely start out at the factory OAL if someone can measure one for me and let me know what that number actually is (...

Off the charts-frustrated

(6 posts)

Have a Wby Mark V in 300wby. Having issues getting groups under 5 inches, and that's on a good day! Rifle has been glass bedded and trigger job by good gunsmith. I like to hand load but having trouble with this particular round. So I purchased Federal and Wby ammo in 180gr. Still not grouping. Tight rings an...

Thanks for the replies. I acquired the gun in 04. According to Wby, its a mid 90s Alaskan model. Before the recent work it would group "ok" but not great. I mounted a Bushnell Elite in the beginning, and switched to the current Kahles. I shoot from a Caldwell Lead Sled with weight. My other guns, for wh...

To get a .300 or not...That is question

(44 posts)

I already have a .257 and have been wanting a .300 also but I don't know how much I really need one. I started putting in for a Maine Moose tag this year and with in the next 10 years I may draw one. I don't think that I would ever go elk hunting more than once in my life either. Black bear trip is going to happen next year. I can pretty ...

Don't agree with this being a soap opera thread JGant.You might try 24 HR Campfire with your responses.Getting a 300 Wby is a good enough reason just because.

Stainless Steel MK V

(11 posts)

I'm curious if those "in the know" could tell me if there are any talks about bringing back the stainless steel Mark V rifles. I've been hoping for a 375 in the Vanguard but am about giving up hope and am now considering the Mark V series. I do like the Mark V Fibermark in .375 H&H (but just really want a stainless gun). ...

270 WSM in S1 SubMOA and Varget or Win 760

(9 posts)

Okay I tried two different reciepes. Both had great results. 52 Grs of Varget with a 130gr game king. Groups were .40. And a 150 gr deep curl with 56.1 grs of 760. Groups were about the same size. This is gonna sound starnge, but the Varget makes a really weird high-pitch crack. Both powders are very clean. Anyone have experience with either in loa...

...sounds like it's shooting just fine...

...I probably would have went w/ a slower burning powder to take advantage of the increased case capacity/ MV/ case fill ratio......
