Thanks Kenny. It was a fun day!

Thanks Kenny

Thank you for watching! Glad you liked it!

Thanks! I love that rifle.

I THINK THE .260 REM TIMING WAS BAD, HAD BEEN NOW AND INTERNET EXPOSURE/ KZfaq, IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN OFF LIKE WILDFIRE.

I want a Savage rifle in .260. It's the perfect caliber for my needs and with light recoil. The.270 Win is a bit too much.

I love the 260, very versatile and effective

USNVA I’ve got a Savage 25/06 outstanding light round. Fast, flat trajectory. Excellent for deer and smaller although I’ve read stories of elk harvested with it.

Very nice to hear. Thank you!!

Jon. Your words are very kind. Thank you sir. More to come.

My pleasure, guys. I really enjoy watching your videos, and those of Eagle Eye.

Hey thank you!

Haha! Thanks man!

Thank you Willie. Happy new year brother!

Willie Bulletman The Savage 112 magnum target 338 Lapua runs about $1,100. Which isn't much considering what you get.

Thank you, I like it.

Thanks for the feedback. Seems like people wanna see the long range stuff. I understand that some people just do not have access to the ranges and public lands we do. We will keep the LR vids coming!

Thank you. Yeah, once this .260 Rem barrel is used up I'm going to look into them.

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 I do enjoy watching and do appreciate the LR stuff you guys do but My discipline is 300yrd F-class and 100 &200 Benchrest. I have very limited access to anything over 600yrds

I want to see barrel life for long range. the 6.5 creedmor has a very short 2500 round life. I look for longer barrel life at long range. this round is out of the question for me.

Derek - What barrel for the 6.5 CM only has a 2500 round life?

It wasn't too bad, drill two holes after some measurements. I have one on my Savage 112 target .338 Lapua as well. Both are from matthewsfabrication.com/product/adjustable-kydex-cheek-rest/

Thank you sir.

A very Good round that is often over looked!

All three 6.5s you mention are good calibers. The 6.5 CM, being the most-modern, probably has an edge as far as being purpose designed for precision shooting, especially in terms of even ignition and burn, plus plenty of neck room for seating long bullets. However, the .260 has a modest advantage in case capacity, and you can make .260 brass by necking down .308 Winchester or necking up any number of smaller calibers. The 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser has the largest case capacity of the three, despite being the oldest, and although it is not well-known in the 'States or North America as a precision cartridge, it has been used in that capacity for more than a century in Scandinavia as well as in other parts of Europe, as well as an excellent all-around hunting round. Given the craze on currently for things 6.5 CM, it is probably easiest to obtain 6.5 CM brass over the others, but you can get .260 and 6.5 Swedish, too, so it probably boils down to which one you like the best.

The 6.5 hit a little harder because he had that load running about 100 FPS faster than the 260.

It was a good day James, thank you.

Haha

Deeply offensive.

You could even say... I'm triggered.

catch some more vids on long distance shooting....God Bless.

Nothing special really. I did scrub the barrel real good once with JB Bore compound. It works really well at removing fouling and it will remove any tiny burrs. Retumbo and H1000 are our go to powders. We were using the Hornady 285gr ELD bullets. What optic are you using?

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 vortex viper pst. I believe I have a defect barrel. I got a borescope today and it has very bad machining marks in the barrel. it looks like deep concentric grooves.

Well I've only had experience with my Savage, I love this rifle. I do like the ease in which the barrels can be swapped on these Savages. So I'd have to say Savage. =) Thanks for watching!

aaron coats thanks

Stock Savage barrel.

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 WOW. I expected some exotic brand. I have 5 Savage rifles. I knew that they would shoot over my skill level. Now I am impressed.

No Sir. They are not.

Yes the Savage LRP has a aluminum bedded stock .

In the correct gun like savage you can extend bullets out due to magazine is built bigger

That’s cause they’re single load rifles. No magazine available.

You were expecting full auto with the 338?

@@ClinttheGreat I'm guessing he has never done any lr precision shooting. It's the science and concentration behind each shot. Not the loud noises or the yeehaw afterwards.

Aaron has a name, KAREN.

Thanks. The 16x is great not as clear as the 10x but still a good choice depending on the range you want to shoot. I love my Savage LRP .260 Rem. it is indeed a shooter. Thanks for watching

Not a lot.

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 is it slightly better in wind and elevation or not ?

@@jdg5682 They are so similar, it is rally splitting hairs in my book. Some may argue....

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 thanks for the reply will sub

It's very comfortable to shoot though. It has an effective brake and it weighs 16lbs, ;)

Apples to oranges. Wind and other variables. Hard to say.

6.5 will do the deed...with the right pill, and dope.

Shipped for under $300.00 with all options shown.

Nick J. That Boyd's stock with the adjustable cheek piece option was just over $200 Not a bad price for and inexpensive after market stock. These were a 100% drop in stock. No modification needed. A lot of guys like to pillar and or glass bed them. More power to them. If I knew how to do that I probably would. They seem to shoot good right out of the box. Hope this helps you man.

@@coatsbrothersfirearms8406 If it isn't broken, DON'T fix it, I think that applies here.

Thanks, I was not able to find that exact one but that's probably me not navigating the site correctly ! I will continue to look, that is a really nice looking one. I'm used to buying AR style rifles so I'm not sure what action I would need for 6.5 or what brand of barrel and action combination to look for.

True but you would probably go blind because you'd have to aim at the sun...

Bill Fletcher I have only tried H1000 and Retumbo. I think our bipods are Blackhawk.

Ok, thanks for the reply. Bill

To confuse liberal law makers.

a vast majority of bullets arent what they are actually named: .44 mag is a .429 .38 spl is .358 7.62 nato is 7.82 460 s&w is .452 5.56 nato is 5.70 many reasons but the 2 biggest are: A. marketting B. many go off of bore size instead of bullet size

Yes there is a place in Georgia to shoot. Look up Cool Springs Gun

Jimmy Dishman Will do, thanks

Jimmy Dishman Is that in fort valley?

S U R V I V O R sorry that is Cool Acres Gun It’s on International Brenchrest Shooters website

All so. Shot a Hawks Ridge 1000 range for 6 years. Savage is the only way to go. They win all most every match in factory class. I had 6-5. 284 to 6 br. 6br was very accurate and cheaper to reload. Good luck
