    Bergara Rifles

    I've had one in 6.5 creedmoor for a couple of years now. Extremely accurate rifle, action is very smooth and positive. They had some issues on earlier production runs that bergara is aware of and seems to be correcting. Mine has a large firing pin would blow small rifle primers. It had a...

    Won the lottery--what caliber?

    Of the guns you have I would say 25-06. I used a 308 for my rocky in 2011 and it was plenty. WHEN I draw my desert tag I will probably be packing a 240 weatherby, although a 257 wby in a mark v ultra light would be tough to beat...

    240 WBY Mag Shooters ?

    Mine's a weatherby mark v ultra light, I think it's the cat's butt for deer, sheep and goats. I'm loading 100 grain partitions at just over 3400 fps, spooky flat out to 450 or so. Even used it on a middlin size barbary ram this year, worked great though I would probably use a bigger round for...

    Bighorn and Barbary Success!!

    He added a few more dings since '08, the egg shaped chunk on the growth ring is pretty distinctive, bases are also distinctively small (13.5") which gives the impression of huge mass throughout but limits scoring potential. BandC is 173 and change after deductions.
