Sorry to hear that you recently lost your .50 in a horrible boating accident. |

I've got a shitty pic of my "ugly stick" if anyone can host it. It may not look like anything but it WILL drive tacs. That's the only reason I haven't built a new one.

|
|
I have been thinking of doing something in a 260 Rem, how do you like that round? It has good SD and a nice trajectory to boot. S.O. |

|
That's a damn good idea! S.O. |

TheRedHorseman-=- Where did you get a cool stock like that to fit a Mauser, and can you get them for M98's? |
|
Your definition of 'long range' is???? No sense in wasting your or my time until a reference point is given. |
|
|
Precision placement of any caliber bullet from 100 yards to 1.5 miles. If you own it or it is issued to you I would like to see pictures. [this will be the last definition I give, if you can't follow everyone else that figured it out on thier own, please find a BOTD thread to play in. Hunter out.... |
||
|
Probably stuff 300yrds and more. |
||
|
|
Correct! The AR-50 stock has a handy T-slot on the bottom. You can make adapters to fit it on any mount without modifying the rifle. |
||

Dude, that is totally sweet. I guess I should have read page 3 before I IM'ed you. I definitely have to build an adapter like that for my Remington. Sorry, no pix, just a basic Rem 700 PSS (old style) with a Leupold. It'll stay within 2" at 300 yards on a calm day, and I can reliably hit a chest-sized target in moderate winds out to 600. |

|
Oh YEAH BABY!! Hunter out... |
|
|
WooHoo...! Think these kids are gonna know what a BM59 is...? Sweeeeeeeeeeeet! |
|
|
My question was legitimate, as I was not wishing to reach out three AI's, snap .jpg's, u/l to the hosting service, etc. when only one .jpg 'may' suffice. Why you got a dick up your ass over the question, I do not know and now, I do not care. |
|||
|
Sigh...

Cool?! If I could change the word "vomit" into a rifle stock, that would be it. I'm sure it fits him, and he likes it, but....eww. QuietShooter, Did you redope the BDC on your Leupold M3 for 20" bbl ballistics, or did you work up a load that matches the BDC more accurately? Sweet setup, BTW (I've got an LTR with M3 too.) |
|
|
wow! someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning! |
||||
|
I like it a lot. It shoots flat and reasonably fast (2830fps) Recoil is pretty mild compared to .308 and the ballistics are far superior. Brass is readily available and is easy to work with and there's a great choice of bullets. I can't see myself shooting .308 again. Ever. It's worth considering,it has everything going for it. Mark |
|||
|
What makes you say that? Some of the .308 bullets have better BC's and pretty close SD's. CW |

|
|
I had Kenton Industries make me a new cam based on chrono data...
|
||
|
its actually wood, I got it off of ebay for $95.00, it was fitted for a VZ24, which should be an exact fit for a standard 98. I just had to do a lot of inletting and bed it really well. and it no longer has that ugly ass paintjob on it either, I just cant find the damn camera. |
|
|
I have that same stock for my 10/22 |
||
|
WTH? Mauser? Winchester? Tell us about this thing! |
|
|
the back of the bolt kind of looks enfield-ish |
||
|
|
|
DITTO THAT ! I had the same damn rifle as a kid... I TOTALLY forgot about it until seeing that picture. THANKS !!! |
||
|
Not really. To get a 308 bullet with a BC of over 0.600, you need to go up to about 210gr. That's not going to be going comparably fast out of anything smaller than 300 RUM. In 6.5mm, there are several 140-150gr bullets with a BC over 0.600. In 7mm, the 162-167's are over 0.600. |

How do you think it would compare to a 25-06? Been thinking of getting a Tikka in that flavor. |
||||
|
Which brand? I couldn't find anything close to that in Nosler. CW |
||
|
I 've just shot my new Savage .25-06 with some supposedly hot handloads. Didn't check the velocity, but they didn't move in a stiff breeze out to 200 yards. Going back soon to try 600 yards. CW |
|||||
|
Berger .308 210gn Vld's have a listed bc of .640 which is in the same range as the 6.5 142gnSierra and 139gn Lapua. However they can't be driven at fast enough velocities from a .308 to keep up with the .260 Mark |
|||
|
Not sure,as I've no experience of .25-06. However, I've neve heard of anyone using .25-06 for match shooting so that must tell you something. I think part of the reason is because there aren't that many quality match bullets made in .25 cal. But with that said, I believe that .25-06 is a fine shooting cartridge, but as it appears to be overbore, would estimate the barrel life to be relatively short. Mark |

I get ½ minutes groups from this rifle of mine. I did it again last Saturday using Sellier & Bellot .223 Ammo.
My Remington BDL And I bought it NIB in 1999 for around $400, sales tax included. |
