    Prairie dog camo - orange and green laminate. Looks great.

    Tracks beautifully - just remember you need a rear bag with the ears set further apart.

    Hi Joe

    I like to imagine that it's gotten a little better here. There was one particularly testy individual who seems to have gone. Wilbur did give him fair warning. I don't know if he was banned...

    Look at some cartridge diagrams

    The Lapua Magnum case has a larger diameter rim than more common magnum cases.

    At CES 2013 a $17k rifle with a linux powered scope. Mark the target and it's tracked by laser. When the crosshairs line up with the target the rifle fires.

    Hi Jeffrey

    Is the 58000 psi measured or what's in Hodgdon's online manual?

    Remington, RWS & Norma brass

    Hi all

    Lapua brass is good, sure. But sometimes what I read almost seems possessed with the fervour of religion! ;-) In contrast Norma brass seems to get universally derided for being soft. I'm...

    The 6.5x55 case will take a lot more pressure than an old Mauser can handle, but I'm going to have to suggest you've been a little glib with your pressure claims for the 6.5x47, Al. I can remember...

    30/338 Remington Ultra Magnum

    I didn't realise Remington had made the 338 RUM shorter than the 300 RUM until I saw a reamer print for the 338 Edge - a 338/300 RUM.
