    .300wsm barrel length

    My winchester model 70 300 WSM came with a 24 inch barrel. I had it threaded back when I was in high school and have a brake on it. That is the most accurate rifle I've ever owned.

    6.5 PRC: Fierce Rogue Carbon 20" vs. Seekins Havak Element 21"

    Seekins all day. If you want to load em long you can do that easily with it as well.

    New rifle choices

    Mostly quality. Both shot just ok. But both rifles needed sent back to Bergara because of burrs in the chamber. And 1 still would get cartridges stuck and it was not pressure related I sold them both and swore off Bergara for good.

    New rifle choices

    Both Bergara I've had have been hot garbage. Went to a Seekins PH2 and never looked back

    Does a usable FFP reticle exist for hunting applications?

    Maven Mil I did just order a NX8 in MIL-XT. Still seems legit

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    Mine all went together fine. Everything was tight and put together well. I see no issues at first glance. I went ahead and make some relief cuts on both end ( only 2 cuts per side on opposite sides). I used a jig saw with a metal blade. I then used a angle grinder and a file to clean up the cuts...

    Best out of box accurate 6.5prc?

    Another vote for Seekins. Love my PH2 in 6.5 Creed

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    Mine just arrived. I'm thinking about cutting those relief cuts in before I burn it in. Cant hurt I guess

    Overthinking Bullet construction on Elk

    My 300 WSM loves 185 grain Berger Classic Hunters. It's a Winchester model 70 with a 1:10 twist. It shoots 1 ragged hole at 100. Never had any issues with that round. I've also killed a pile with eldx.

    223 vs 22CM

    Personal preference mostly I guess. I have alot of components for 6.5 creed. It has a way better barrel life. I wouldn't get rid of my 6.5 for the 22. As I said I'd keep the 6.5 and .223 that would cover 99% of what I do.

    223 vs 22CM

    If it were me and you could only keep one. 6.5 creed. But then again I would definitely keep both haha
