    I know it's target shooting but how many of us could do that with a scoped rifle, bipod, rear bag or all the other stuff at our disposal?

    Speed isn't necessarily the answer to getting to 300 without the need for turret adjustments or holdover, zeroing distance is also an answer as said above. A 3-9 is perfect for point and shoot ...

    There is another probable reason for the new "wonderkin" cartridges like the creedmores, and that's to do with ammunition makers. Making heavy bullets to meet part of a market is only going to annoy...

    Isn't the main difference the twist rate? Put a fast twist barrel in a 243 and there'd be bugger all difference. Ok there's a bit of refinement in the case geometry and in the 50s when the 243 was...

    I actually like cock on closing, it makes extraction and ejection easier and was chosen for some military rifles as it's less tiring to operate for a prolonged period which admittedly is unlikely for...

    My parker hale safari won't, and I've seen a featherlight Winchester plus several others which do the same. It's to do with the size and shape of the extractor. I also have a Husqvarna that will feed...

    The one drawback with control feed is that it's not possible to drop a round on the magazine follower and load it, the round needs to come up from the mag. I've seen people "hammer " a live round...
