Long Range Heavy Bullet Rifle Help?

Oh hi jrebel,  totally forgot you were here 

Well you know.......a guy steps away for a couple hours and the pissing contest begins.  Kind of surprised a sponsor would get down in the weeds with another member to sling mud.  Probably should have taken the high ground.  Both had valid points and should have let it go at that.  Not sure what skin Karl had in the game but two on one is kind of not fair.  Oh well......back on track.

Back on track with the discussion at hand. Take the carbon fiber pissing match elsewhere.
Thanks,
The management.

WoW! When I read that I felt like I was watching CNN. Go with a .300 Win Mag and call it good. It isn't overly complicated and you have plenty of factory ammo offerings in case reading everyone else's opinion takes up your time.

When I had my last magnum rifle built I wanted something not over 10# w scope that I could shoot 20 rounds through without having to wait 5 or 10 mins for barrel to cool between shots like I have to w fluted sporter barrel on my 338-378 for 1/2 moa accuracy.   I got one of Mikes barrels and it does exactly what I hoped.  The STEEL cools so quick my chamber evev stays much cooler now.  I wouldnt have believed it either if I hadnt seen it.  I don’t abuse it but its got a few hundred rounds down the pipe.  Love the cold bore performance and I cut shooting time by more than half.

BTW- I really enjoyed the discussion on CF barrels. I thought it was all good info on both sides.

I'll take it! You bring that rifle over or I'll come there. If you can run a 20 shot string under 1" at 100 yards, it should be everything you expected. I'll put 1K on the table, along with your 1K. 👍

what time frame?  20 shots in 1hr   or  20 shots in 20 minutes?

What part about a 20 shot string do you not understand. Ooooooh maybe this is the Clinton definition of "String" ? Do I need a attorney? I have them but I would rather spend my money on primers, powder, bullets and cute things that look good and smell better than Moose in the rut.

Yep, his barrels are pretty amazing. Mike has perfected the lay up/resin application. Not all wraps are created equal!

 Johnny, if not a build, there are many sporters, when chambered in an appropriate caliber, can fill those needs with little or no tweeking. Just get a few to your shoulder to feel what fits. I know how you like your Savages👍

I was going to call it the 20/20 challenge

Your on to something?

There you go. Maybe you can start the 20/20 challenge shoot.

Someone is more than welcome to start a carbon fiber barrel thread. It's clearly off track of what the OP had in mind and he's made it clear he doesn't have any interest in a CF barrel.

What's your budget on this rig?

[b23]

NOW CAN WE GET THIS BACK ON TRACK........what rifle???  Pretty sure the caliber has been decided (99% on 300 win mag).  Barrel length will be 26".  What rate of twist for a 200-210 grain bullet.......9?? Or 10??

A 1-10 twist will be plenty fast enough for those bullets and even heavier, too.

In a 26in. tube built gun, my vote would be for the 30 Nosler followed close by a 300 Win.
