243 WSSM & a 243.

I put in a floor for a guy that had a rifle that shot those.


He said it was the fasted round in the world at 4000+ fps. :eek:

Ya they really cook down range. The 243 WSSM actually has a pretty big following. Peeps like that 4000+ velocity. Like the 22-250. You load them hot & they will eat a barrel up. I believe D-Techs & a few others are making AR-Uppers for this round now.

I finally got a Rock River M4 16" with full quad rail a couple of weeks ago. It feels like a toy compared to a standard AR-15, but man is it fun to shoot. :)

4 30 round and 2 20 round Promags are loaded and ready to rock. Next up on the list: 24" AR-10 .308 or Remington 700. Any suggestions on reaching out past 500 are welcome, though.

Howa M-1500

Savage is excellent. Love the Accu trigger system.
Remington QC aint what it used to be.

Gotta love the lil 22 they sell

Wow, they have some cool stuff for a decent price.


That M1 .22 carbine is cool. I love shooting my father's real M1 carbine.


Do you have any experience with their bolt-action rifles? It would be nice to get some input other than,"Get a Remington 700 and never look back."

If you go with a 700. By a nice used one made in the early 70s.
I have never shot the H-1500 my self. But have read countless people talk about its out of the box accuracy.
As for the Savage/The Savage trigger can be adjusted to your liking. Thats a big big plus once you start to shoot out past 500. Howa QC is excellent. Savage aint bad either.

Only 1 Remington bolt action I will lay money on. Rem MoHawk 600s

Were they higher quality back then?

Yes.
The 700 has always had the so called trigger issue. So did the 600 class Rems which I own & have owned several other 600s. Never had 1 go bang on accident.

Merry Christmas!

Awesome vid
I thought for sure you would have a new Xmas toy to post.
Dad got 8 dozen sill sock decoys to add to the snow goose spread.
Im pretty stoked about it. Hunting over decoys is all about numbers. & that should put us around a 1000.

Merry Christmas
