build me a 500yd ruger light rifle, 10lbs

[Evan03]

man this is still floatn on the top.

my long range rig has never been built. i do now have caliber picked out. itl be 6.5 284 1/8 possibly 1/7 barrel pushn 140 bergers. ive grown to lover bergers over the past few years. the gun will most certainly weigh in over 10lbs. ive found under till isnt what i want.

for now my long range rig has still been my 2506. its punched papaer to 500 now and is even printed decent grops thatl kill most any game to that range. though my deer was killed inside 200 this year with a short range 220 swift.

my 2506 pushes 115 bergervlds and 115 nosler. ive found slow powders work best. imr 7828 ssc rl 22 4350s and even hodg 100v as shown some promising groups at 300. but my best loads are with 7828 and rl22.

bergers are seated hard into the lands and noslers print tight groups about any where they happen to be seated in the kneck.

i will say i flung alot of bergers down range to get where im at now. and ill never go back. for long range bergers are where its at.

and for now this is for long range on varmits. ill add deer to the mix later on as my skill and confidence progresses, but i know consider long range beyond 400. past that im not 100% confident inmyself.

long range dogs and chucks are where its at with the 2506.


ohhh next upgrade is glass. 6.5-20 leo with dots to 600 mounted on the 25
