Christensen is having a hard time moving guns right now. It’s not a quality issue. If you want a Christensen in a big caliber call Matt at arnzen Arms in Eden Prairie MN and tell him Jeff in Texas sent you. He has a ton of the Christensen biggies in stock.
So, there’s a lot going on here. First, 308 is not the best cartridge for what you’re looking for. You’re right, it is a tall order for one rifle. I’m going through a little of this right now (not this extreme) and I think I’ve decided on 6.5 PRC. If I had the money, I’d build a 6mm creedmoor and 6.5 PRC. Where are you? In Austin? I’d really look at building here.
Not 22 17 is pushing it 5.7 ok 223 no 22 mag would be my choice here I know this sounds shitty but you don’t necessarily want it to die right there. Let it wander off and die unseen. All of these suppressed. Obviously. *it is illegal to shoot firearms in the city limits. Just thought I’d put that out there.
Got it. For AR Ruger SFAR are nice rigs - the lightest out there. You. A build an aero M5 for ~1200ish which is what I would do at that budget. Primary weapons systems at $1900 would be my option if you can spend a little more. I dislike 365’s. They’re great guns and hyper reliable I just don’t like them. I prefer the hellcat in that scenario. Hellcat pro might be an option as it’s the same size as the 365xl Masada slim are great - newer gun but very good.
Eh, I’d disagree. But I am all for his place in the history of music. I’d go for Hal Blaine in ringos spot on your list. I will also admit that you know more about music than I do.
I’ve got that Ruger American in 300BO and it’s a nice little gun. 6.5G has more energy at 1000 than .308 M80 ball I believe. M80 is underpowered though. 6.5G needs a 24” barrel to extract the most out of it, but 12”-18” - it’s lethal out to 250ish maybe 300 with 18”. It’s a great fucking round. Works great in AR-15 platform too.
