I bought one of these rifles with the 22" barrel after setting up a compact model in 243 for my wifes niece and that gun really shot great. bought the 6.5 CM because I already had the dies and bullets and powder etc. and it really shoots awsome. the bolt doesnt lock in place on a chambered round...

Found one of these online and bought it to use during the regular gun season here in Virginia, Stainless with 24 inch barrel, It's a rugged design that I have grown to like now owning two of these plus another hunter model. fired off a few rounds thursday to get sighted in roughly with a not so...

I recently bought an Artcise 90c carbon fiber tripod, and then a ballhead from the hog saddle folks, and also a bog pod clamp rest to go on top of the ballhead when I was in cabelas the other day. I have noticed with my nerve disease and the damage it has caused that I am needing more stability...

Iv'e been toying with the idea of starting to get the parts for a future build and have noticed that none of the distributors I have looked at have the remington 700 or savage actions. this would be a DIY build. I have seen some high end actions but they are cost prohibitive for my needs. I...

I was just looking on natchez site at scopes on sale and found this burris veracity 30mm tube 2-10x42, SFP cant remember the reticle but I liked the looks of it for 349.95 regular 599.00 GM 54-120 what say ye? should I set the card on fire, lol Is this the scope you were waiting to go back...

Well things have slowed down here for deer movement with the moon getting full and the farmers cutting the soybeans but in the last few years Iv'e noticed real good activity in the cut bean and corn fields during mid december due to the winter rye grass they sometimes plant and it gets grown...

Well I didn't take any pics, but I took a large doe yesterday evening at 209 yds. with the CVA scout conversion. First deer Iv'e shot at with it, the load was 45 gr of Imr 4227 and remington expander 250 bullet which is the same bullet as the barnes 250 tez, and a wool wad. Bullet hit her...

It's been a little too warm here in SE virginia for a while now and it has effected the bow season. I went this evening at 78 degrees and had a decent hunt with the crossbow but I just about got ill walking in that heat. Almost had a shot at a large coyote chasing two small does which came by me...

I haven't been on here in a while as it was too hot for comfortable shooting, but now fall is amongst us archery comes in first and I use a crossbow now due to disability, and then muzzleloader comes in. I pulled into my driveway the other nite and I live on a farm, and there were three bucks...

A little while back I stopped using imr 4227 in my scout conversion with the short His breech plug because there is a .542 section of unrifled larger dia. section in front of the breech plug and with my 45 gr. charge being such a short powder column I couldn't be sure that my bullet wasnt...

Well I had been wondering if I really needed an electronic powder dispenser and finally talked myself into it today. My Imr 4198 charges are a little tough with Dad's old redding manual dispenser and I wasn't satisfied with how much effort it took me to get an acceptable charge. I was dumping...

I have been getting good groups with these bullets, these are the crimp nosed ones. Been shooting them saboted in my Scout conversion with 54 gr. Imr 4198 so far and plan on trying 55 and 56 gr, too. Anyone here taken any deer with these bullets in the 2400 fps range or so? I'm just wondering if...

After using only federal large magnum rifle primers since I got my scout conversion with His breech plug and brass primer modules, I'm tempted to try some large rifle primers. I haven't really wanted to go up to 65 gr. of 4198 , but rather have been wanting to go with a little less recoil...

Alright you experienced range shooters, what is a Node? Maybe this is something I need to know. lol

Anyone look through these two scopes and can tell me which one has better low light capability? as far as seeing the deer. I know the vxr has firedot. also durability on a scout conversion, opinions. I have alot of phillipine made scopes that just lose the deer too early and their eye relief is...

when I take my brake off to shoot sabots I could use a small funnel to pour powder into the barrel. pouring from a charge tube into a 45. cal muzzle is just asking to spill some powder. does anyone have a source for a funnel like this? My muzzle brake funnel won't fit in the muzzle.

I went out today for a short session as it was getting cool out there this evening and I needed to sight my scope back in after switching rings. I took a new powder Imr4227 in 45gr charges and some 250gr fury star tip bullets in the plain crimp nosed design at .452. I had sized them down and...

Just wanted to start a new thread seeing as we got into the saboted stuff on the bear creek thread. I am new to this in a sml 45 cal scout conversion. I have both types of 4198 powder and the His ignition system with the large magnum rifle primer. I may order some fury bullets too. I see he...

Today I recieved a package from BCB with 2 packs of the ballpoint bullets and a 5 bullet sample of the same bullet with a pointed polymer tip instead of the semi flattened ballpoint. I am a computer dummy so no pics unless someone wants me to text them a pic from my phone. They are now machined...

Well I went through the scouts barrel again trying to make sure I didn't have any copper up by the muzzle, butch's bore shine and bronze or brass brush and then more cleanup with patches I think it's clean. I have been searching for a reason my groups opened up some recently and I did notice...
