    Precision Gun info

    Got the hots for a precision rifle started my research, money no object just had to group well and bolt action . After reading Thompson got bought by S&W and they completed a joint venture in 6.5 CM that would group @ .48” at 100 yards as well as 600 , was the best grouper in the field I was researching. Just started to pull the trigger and my buddy off S&F Joe said hold up read up on the new Ruger Hawkeye target in 6.5 CM, 6.5 PRC, and 300 WM I did my homework and glad I did this across the counter tack driver in 6.5 PRC was grouping at .21”@ 100 WOW I bought it and attached a Vortex 4-24x50 Strike Eagle. Shot the gun brought home cleaned barrel , next trip I put 3 rounds in the same hole, I was amazed , gun with tax was $1045.00 I was going to cryogenic treat barrel like I do all my rifles but what’s the point
    Thanks to Joe I have what I was looking for it is HEAVY @ 13 lbs with optic and round full huge bull barrel great tactical stock , love it ! Hogs , deer , bear , elk beware!!

    I picked up a Savage 10 Stealth 6.5 Creedmoor in 2017 and it was .45 MOA out of the box @ 100 yds. At 200 yards I can shoot basic over the counter 140 gr or 120 gr ammo and ring a 3" plate 100% of the time. I put a Nikon Monarch 4-16x50 on it and it's a pleasure to shoot.

    They have since come out with a 110 Precision line and I've heard great things about those as well though the 10 series is a more solid platform IMHO. I've just never had a bad shooting Savage and they are usually the most reasonably priced too.

    Full disclosure, I don't shoot it often. In fact, the damn boats take up most of my free time these days........

    I do lots of research before I buy a rifle first “tack driver” in the newer calibers was a Ruger American Preditor 5 years ago Timney Trigger , barrel cryogenically treated at 300 below Swarovski 6i lit reticle optic and in 5 years its killed at least 400 pigs . I pig hunt with 7 rifles all I hunt with total confidence bolt and AR platform , a rifle must group for me to hunt with it , the newest is the best grouping rifle I own in the new 6.5 PRC caliber I can put 3 rounds in the same hole at 100 all have higher end optics , I don’t see as well as I use to do I use optics that are most 24 power ..

    Good shooting,
    Jay

    2. Ruger American Preditor in 6.5 Creedmoore 2. Pameto State Armory 6.5 Grendel
    3. Remington 700 LD in 7 Mag 3. Palmeto State Armory AR 10 6.5 Creedmoore 14 LBS stupid heavy but accurate
    4. Savage in 17 WSM ( worse gun I own for groups ) ???? 4. Colt Chrome lined barrel 223 Caliber

    All Tack drivers rated from best to worse from 1 down , ( But the Savage it will NOT group )
