Which higher end 22-250 to buy? Or just go custom?

Yes there’s actually a video from
Horizon and they talk about this. I don’t see why you would only if you wanted lapua brass. I’ve heard accuracy was good. But alpha and Petterson are offering sized head stamped

Yes sir. I’ve got a group of friends that don’t reload and want a 22creed. One of which claims he contacted hornady and the rep told him 22creed ammo will be available in 2019. They started to get their builds together and plan to shoot 22-250 through them. Didn’t know if that was safe or not. I have 300rnds of alpha brass. Been slamming them yotes in Paducah with 77 and 90smk’s and they will fly.

APR can build it for not much more $$$ if any. Some factory rifles are actually more. Nothing like a custom rifle that you design yourself.

i have 2, one is no more accurate than the other, browning low wall and ruger no 1. both are 3 shot groups cover with a quarter at 100 yards,

I have been looking at the Bergara. Any reviews or recommendations. Looking at the B14 HMR but also looking at the hunter, Is it a few hundred dollars cheaper.

Imo it depends on what you want out of the rifle. For the most part, even the lower end guns will be more accurate than most shooters. If certain looks or features are what you are looking for (specific barrel/twist rate, specific action, custom fluting, etc) then by all means custom is the way to go.

Otherwise the higher end guns is they way I would go.

One day I will buy a Cooper rifle. They are beautiful guns with fantastic wood on most of them.

Some of them are, I would place Savage over Remington these days as far as quality.

Are Savage's considered "high end" rifles now? Maybe I have been living under a rock

I say it depends. For the every day run of the mill high volume production guns, Savage may be the better rifle. But the higher end Remington’s still shoot. All of my R700 5R rifle’s are straight up shooters.

And I despise the accutrigger.

This is what I believe I’ll end up doing.

Was looking at the Christianson arms and what not and was curious.

Will look for the Cooper to take a peak

A shop I buy from will cut you a great deal on them christian that is .

I own one and I have to say compared to a true custom hard to say which is better My wallet is not as slim when that much I can tell you . Ridge line is a very NICE rifle that is ready to go out of the box .

Nothing against the custom guys or vendors on here . I own both over the counter call it semi custom and true customs Like a GAP rifle Cooper

I myself not a bull barrel fan just do not like the weight , the carbon barrels make a huge difference in the rig for me anyways .

Good luck
