    SPEER .308 165GR BTSP #2034?

    I like these a lot, I've used them in 308 and 30 - 06 with great results. Excellent performance on deer for minimal money.

    Kauger 700 receiver

    Are you referring to Kauger Arms in Hazlehurst, Ga? If so they are local to me and have a good reputation for quality builds and I've shot some of their builds.

    Winchester Mod 70 Featherweight Walnut vs maple

    I love it, I picked it up in March. It's chambered in 308 win. and it is very light and accurate. I'm past ready to get it in the woods. I started out hunting with wood stocked rifles in the 90s, then parked them in the safe for synthetic stocked stuff that I felt better about banging around...

    Winchester Mod 70 Featherweight Walnut vs maple

    I have no technical data or evidence to share that would be of any substance that would prove one better than the other. I simply picked the maple because it was pretty and different, you don't see those everywhere. Personally, I don't think one offers any advantage over the other besides the...

    older (special) rifle project

    Your rifle story is almost identical to mine, except mine is a 30-06 ADL from the 70s. Good job fellas keep these rifles in the woods being used!

    Any Bergara fans?

    Excellent rifles in my opinion / experence for the price. Like someone above stated, they are basically an upgraded 700. I have shot several different models, I own a Ridge in 30-06 and a Wilderness in 300WM. Both were around 800 and shot well out the box with no tinkering.

    Is classic hunting bolt action rifle dead or?

    For most people under 30 I would say it is. I'm 35 and it has been a full circle for me though. I grew up around guys hunting with Brownings, Berettas, Weatherbys, and other pretty wood stocked guns so I accepted it as normal and used them too. As I got older I became conscious of scratching up...

    Browning X-bolt issues.

    I have had simular gouping issues with a few other rifles fitted with brakes as well, kinda turned me off on brakes. I too had an X - Bolt hells canyon speed in 6.5 Creed that frustrated me until I got it sorted. I ended up removing brake as well. On the other hand I had an A - Bolt with the...
