    Glass wise vx5/6 and z5 are all bloody good. They all have their pros and cons. For me the zl2 turret by leupold is better than anything the z5 offers. I personally think value for money the vx5 is...

    The howa 300BLK is a ‘heavy barrel’ but because of that larger bore diameter it comes in at the same weight of the 223 mini lightweight. So if you shorten it it will be pretty compact

    I did mine, youd be lucky if bolt and reciever saved 100 grams, stock is more often than not best way to shave weight. It did look cool though... and much easier to top load ammo at the range. I got...

    I’m waiting for the 8.6mm creedmoor to come out. I was looking at building a 338 whisper years ago but the 300BLK is better for high volume pest control. The good thing about 300 blackout the brass...

    A good mate of mine an ex deer culler shoots deer out to 260m with his 300BLK running 194gr ME Lehigh’s subsonics and I can do it to 300m. It’s no different to long range hunting to a 1000m a well...

    I was looking at a similar build (Howa 1500 SA, MDT chassis, buffer tube magpul furniture, even the ODL can) but .308 with a 14-16" barrel.

    308mate liked post by mawzer308 On thread : Scout scopes - what are they like to use?
    Had one on my lever action they're fast to bring up and aline with the eye but the FOV is crap, I personally didn't like it and went to a red dot or 1-4x32 scope.
