    22in barrel 1in12 twist bullet weights ?

    This is the first time I will be loading for any semi-automatic so a little nervous doing so good to hear about the Nosler partition for it I really like it it seems like it would expand fast up front then the back end hold together to push through if it hit bone. We typically try to make shots...

    22in barrel 1in12 twist bullet weights ?

    I do have the gauge . But like u said the mag length will probably be where I end up for reliability. I was going to get the small base die but you almost convinced me its not worth it as you loaded for 2 different guns without it . Ill be using winchester brass like I do for all my hunting...

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    Thay wont . But I will when I gotta drag it out the swamp 200 yards in 😆. I want something that'll push through the top on shoulder at base of neck . The off switch partition seems like a two-in-one expansion fast and solid to push through

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    It sounds like with the partition rather I make a soft tissue shot or above the shoulder base of the neck shot it's going to perform and blow a hole no matter what

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    I like the fact that the front half expands easy and fast on soft animals like deer yet the rear can be solid enough to drive through a shoulder

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    I made a neck shot on a 150 lb buck last year at about 90 yards it only went halfway through his neck and stopped I didn't recover it but it seemed that you have dumped all of its energy within the first few inches of impact

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    I plan on running the at the velocity that gives the best accuracy which in a 308 is mostly around 26 to 2700 ft a second in my guns anyway. Not too concerned about the price as I won't be shooting them a whole lot throughout the year. Just few times year to make sure gun is still zero . . I do...

    Partition vs solid base in 30 cal

    Nice . Very informative. The gameking seemed to hold up a little . But I know it would be way to soft if it ever hit bone . The partition looks like it would just hammer through anything lol
