Hey guys i just ordered my first 500 in a 7.5" performance center and looking for ammo suggestions. I know I'll need to reload to shoot very much to favorite recipes for that would be great but until then what's your experience saying is the best/ most accurate bang for the buck? I have some...

I have Talley QD on mine as well, they hold zero when you pull and replace them too.

My M70 is in 375H&H not 416r but I do have the African in 416 and one in 35 whelen and I really like all 3. They do feel and handle very different but I'd have to say the Ruger has more felt recoil imo. And with them both being crf actions the Ruger extractor will snap over a chambered round...

That's crazy that's the same time I quit!!

Please post everything about that conversion. The only thing I've seen done is a 50 Alaskan and while impressive it doesn't give me the tingles but a 416... that pushes a lot of buttons.

I hate to say this in here but imo an AR platform is a great starter for kids. I started my daughter (after her. 22) with an AR15 in 300 Hammer, with adjustable stocks variable barrel lengths and available carbon furniture you can buy or build one as light or short as you want. And recoil is...

My 5.0 coyote has outlasted 3 friends ecoboost junk and the only way that 6 beats a 460 is in economy. As for the super mag cartridges you're right the range finder has made them much less necessary but if imo if you're shooting way out there then you still need more horsepower when you get...

I am a much a Weatherby fan as my bank account allows me to be but I have no interest at all in this thing. I don't care for the other RPM cartridges either, I think they're going backwards from what made Weatherby what it is in the first place. I love my 340 and 460 and a 257 is on my short...

I haven't shot anything but factory in mine yet but 300 gr at 2700 is a pretty light load isn't it?

You can't take any type of automatic over there but I've never seen where you can't take a lever rifle. My PH said he's had a few come over with 45-70's

Beautiful rifle (I wish mine had irons) but shame about that short barrel. Mine is ear splitting with the full length barrel I can't imagine the blast from a short barrel.

Man those are gorgeous. I know a lot of 71's have been converted to 500 S&W but didn't know about the B&M. I'll look into that

Fzj80 what model is your rifle? It has smooth uncheckered wood but the nicer pistol grip and looks like grip cap like a deluxe.

I personally prefer the looks of the short tang models, i know it's only 3/8" difference but the short tang version looks a bit better imo and I've read a couple of the gun writers claim that the slightly longer topline in the stock makes a little more comfortable shot. Idk if that's true but I...

Hey guys how many of you have experience with the Winchester Model 71 in 348 Win? I've wanted one for years and they seem to finally be somewhat affordable so I've got my eye on a pretty decent one. I'm not a collector so I will be using it whenever I'm in lever gun ranges on deer and pigs. What...
