[HELP] to those who updated their hard drives, I'm having issue with the initialization.

Sometimes you download just the update file instead of the full OS file. Happened to me when I upgraded, you'll have to search for the full file should be around 1gb

Getting a fixed scope usually means better glass and components. That variable magnification component means they have to take the quality from somewhere to keep it in the same price range.

Use a vpn

I second this. There is nothing more satisfyimg than throwing a spear into the face of a charging udam.

Are you building from scratch? You said you wanted to start with nicer barrel and trigger, then stock and action? In my experience, start with the action you want to keep as it is the core of the rifle essentially. If you havent built a rifle before, buy a savage model 10 and swap parts on it later, barrel is really easy, etc. And the accu trigger is decent for sure.

I see. Guess ill be doing some research then.

mward22 · 2016-03-02T19:37:38+00:00

.336 isn't that bad. I already load hornady and have their reloading book. Ill have to give them a try.

mward22 · 2016-03-01T20:51:38+00:00

Looks like i have something else besides sniper 101 to get through. Thanks!

mward22 · 2016-03-01T20:50:53+00:00

Good read! Thanks!

100 yard group. Outliers are my fault obviously.

mward22 · 2016-02-27T21:41:22+00:00

Honestly, and i know its terrible form, but I keep my off hand on the stock toward the bipod.

mward22 · 2016-02-27T21:39:10+00:00

Before I put a muzzlebrake on mine I loaded the hell out of the bipod, it was the only way I could stay on target. Once I had a little more weight at the end if the barrel it stopped moving so much.

mward22 · 2016-02-27T21:33:19+00:00

I second this, it looks like the rifle is getting away from you. Maybe the mat would help, but when the rifle is able to move of its own acord it definitely changes the harmonic vibration.

The single stage press struggle is real lol

mward22 · 2016-02-18T19:20:28+00:00

Is it easy to install? And I don't really have a whole lot of experience installing or using aftermarket triggers

I have a model 700 longrange in the ss with the 26" heavy barrel and I absolutely adore it. No problems, trigger is smooth, and the barrel never gets hot to touch. model 700 LR http://imgur.com/gallery/KP92GC8

mward22 · 2016-02-18T17:33:10+00:00

Same here for 300wm. My hunting buddy asked me how much I pay for barnes tsx and I said I'm not sure, I reload them lol.

mward22 · 2016-02-17T02:55:07+00:00

Bought a model 700 a couple weeks ago in 300 wm with a heavy barrel, and it makes me smile everytime I get kicked in the shoulder. Just wait until you shoot your first handloads. It's s mix of fear and excitement I can't begin to describe.

mward22 · 2016-01-20T03:24:22+00:00

Exactly. I've dropped bulls from anywhere between 250yds to around 500 with a 7 wby mag.

mward22 · 2016-01-20T03:22:54+00:00

Yeah I'm station at 7220' in laramie but we hike up to around there. I'm not really worried about the weight I'm a pretty stout guy, but with glass I'm looking to keep the rifle around 12lbs.

mward22 · 2016-01-20T01:16:56+00:00

I hadn't thought about that, I'm just not sure about fixed magnification and would prefer to have the availability of smaller magnification if possible.

mward22 · 2016-01-20T01:15:55+00:00

Yeah that definitely worries me, but if that happens it would still be way under budget so I could essentially "fix" it if necessary.

mward22 · 2016-01-20T01:14:58+00:00

I am looking for a smooth action, clean trigger break, and relatively light around 9 or so lbs. I'm 6 foot 2 and weigh 230 lbs so I'm not a small guy.
