Hi FB, great question; which I will answer in 2 fold. 1. My current 300WM is a bit unwieldly with a 28" carbon tube and a loud brake topped off with a heavy optic. 2. I figured since I have spare magnum action, I would build another that is more friendly to carry and easier on the ears for...

Thanks for the info fellas! In short, sounds like I got some shooting to do!

Hey fellas, would you recommend going with the 165 or 180 TTSX in 300WM for PG assuming both shot equally well in same rifle? By practice, I've always shot on the heavier weight spectrum (212 ELDX) in the 300WM but haven't shot mono's before in same rifle. I had read that going down in weight...

A shot in the dark, but looking for a Browning A-Bolt 300WM BOSS in left hand. My nephew is taking shooting and hunting more seriously so figured on getting him a lefty to match his Dad's righty in same gun. Please PM with details. Thanks in advance!

It was on the cheap and easy; been poor folk living on farm had to make ends meet and re-use whatever we could. Local restaurants would be pouring out old oil and what-not so pops being resourceful started nabbing oil. The old 24" Husky he used to carry is the one I carry now. Though...

Funny you should mention that S_D, one of those 'ole boys was my dad and I still do the same...LOL.

Nice looking sticks fellas! I am on the hunt for a donor RUM action for a 375HH build of sorts. Let's see some target pix!

Good tips folks. As I think about, I do want to get my hands dirty; if only for a brief moment or two. Great stories to tell the grandkids and the like.

Thank you for the information folks, that clears up a lot of my own questions. A pocket knife is a for sure for me. As many others have said, I feel a bit naked without one even when dressed for a board meeting I always have something.

Yeah, but the Winnie and Weatherby have been around a lot longer than the RUM. Just seemed more classy to me.

I own a 300PRC albeit a custom. For turn key, hard to fault a Christensen or Seekins PH2. Christensen does have a faster twist (8) vs Seekins (10) so if you decide to reload the heavier pills "should" behave more consistently with the 8 twist. I do like a BDL design more than DBM so...

Gotta think even more basic here IMO, stoopid cheap to shoot to learn the basics of sight picture/breathing/trigger control....drum roll.... A high power spring pellet gun in 22 or 25 cal Grab a RWS 48 or 52 side cocking and a couple tins of Crosman Premiers then start with irons at 10yds and...

For me in no particular order Cut barrels then Bartlein/Obermyer/Brux/KP/Chanlynn/Proof/Rock Creek/Kreiger Button barrels then Broughton (before Tim retired)/Hart/Lilja/Schneider

Echol's Legend Heavy Sporter in 375 H&H, just because.
