    Benchrest gunsmith vs gunsmith

    Thank you, and thank you for link....I will contact them. I am not worried about the cost of the new custom rifle, but I only have so much room in my safe and it has no vacant slots. I was going to clear out my hybrids from my safe and figured use the money for custom BR rifle in 6BR or 6PPC no...

    Benchrest gunsmith vs gunsmith

    A little birdie told me where there were three new ones left from when the wife liquidated the trigger shop after the husband who made them passed away. To my pleasant surprise they were the ones I had been looking for, for a while now. I have 2 Sako L461 6PPC's and a AII Varmint in .243...

    Benchrest gunsmith vs gunsmith

    I am wondering at point in your rifles life does it graduate from seeing the regular gunsmith to a benchrest gunsmith? I know that if it built up from scratch and it has a custom action and yada yada yada, then yeah, definitely want to have it worked on by the same benchrest gunsmith whom built...

    Private vs public

    The most convenient one to me, and from the google images I have seen, is Tomball, but I get the feeling I may not be competitive enough or be able to dedicate the time required to be at home there. I shoot once a week, on Fridays from 9:45 to 2:00. I was really curious about private, because it...

    Dicks

    I should have just wrote this before. I try to buy from a store that supports GOD, family, and country...maybe it's country before family...Anyways as small business owners often say, mind your own business! It really is true too.

    Dicks

    Cabelas or Bass Pro Shops is where I would go if I had to actually go to a store, but LE Wilson, Harrels, Midway USA, Sinclair/Brownells.... these are the only places I really find myself buying from. Sinclair and or Brownells is only one that I am not sure of their political intentions, but...

    6PPC question

    I am just now reading boyers book and also ratigans book too. I do not have the lifestyle to do what these two have done with the talant, but for a hobby, I am willing to make the most out of my rifle. I inherited the rifle, so I'm just figuring out what I have, where I am at and now I have a...

    Need a Spotting Scope recommendation

    I have a discontinued Kowa that I inherited. It’s good, but you will not see holes out past 300 yards, I can not anyway. But for 0 to 300, I can see how I am shooting. 300 is pushing it for me though. I have been looking into a camera I can mount to target or maybe set on ground in front of...

    Private vs public

    I am curious as to the pluses and minuses of belonging to a private shooting club/range. I am not a social butterfly. In fact I would go as far as to say that talking to people, while good at it, I lose my patience with most people. I can see belonging to a private club if that was the only...

    6PPC question

    I am in Cypress, TX. I shoot at American Shooting Center in Katy and sometimes at Hot Wells in Cypress. ASC has the 100, 200, 300, 600 and I believe on special request, not 100% on this yet, but from word of mouth have heard they have 900 or 1000 yard too. But I am just interested in the 100 and...

    6PPC question

    Ok, thank you. So that’s my next item to buy then. I will start from where Sierra says to with the powders and I guess start adding a grain until I get close to the FPS. Great! I appreciate the information. There are so many things going on that need to be addressed, I just was not sure where...

    6PPC question

    I am not new to turning necks and reloading for the 6PPC. I have always just loaded to what is in bullet manufacturers reload data books. Wanting to pursue more accuracy, I have been reading more and more about the bench rest shooters loading with H322, N133, and benchmark powder to what are...

    What's Happening with the Beggs Cartridges?

    Yeah, I am just in the thought process, but I am done turning necks. I bought a Sako 6PPC USA but it showed up with a Timney trigger in it and that was not mentioned when purchased unfortuneatly. I am keeping it, because I love the rifles just not Timney triggers. I have three Canjar set...

    What's Happening with the Beggs Cartridges?

    I absolutely hate, hate, hate turning case necks. I am really interested in the 6mm Beggs. Currently I shoot a Sako L461 6 PPC with an aftermarket tight neck(.262") chambered SS bull barrel.The twist is 1:14". I have found that I lack the patience to turn case necks. I love the challenge of...

    Most stable portable benchrest table?

    That collapsible table you posted a photo of, will work fine with a slight mod. The mod does not need to be exactly how I describe it here, but once you get the picture, I think your imagination will go nuts, and its affordable too. I think I would screw a 1\8" thick x 6" x 18" rectangular piece...
