    Case in point: My 303 that I used for 30 years. Was my fathers and a good gun for most of that time. I gave it to a young fellow with only peripheral interest in hunting and to him its a basic...

    … and just walked in to the local shop and bought 100 rounds of factory 7 mm08 off the shelf. It was Sako brand and I had a choice of two bullet weights.

    Hermitage liked post by Bagheera On thread : Where to measure barrel length?
    This is correct. It is quite a bit shorter than the barrel looks. For instance, the OAL of a .308 cartridge is 2.800" (therabouts) so a 20" barrel will only have about 17" of rifling and bullet...

    mikee liked post by Bagheera On thread : Barrel length considerations
