    Federal’s Plus Peak 6.5 Creedmoor

    It sounded like you had to buy special reloading dies to be able to re load them. I feel like this is a ploy to keep the 6.5 creed relevant with all the 6.5 prc and similar options available. Speed doesn’t always equate to accuracy, I guess time will tell

    Oversized Bullets

    Have used Redding does for years and really love them. Have never had the problem you did and glad you caught it when you did!

    Super Bowl Stats

    Well the nfl is a business and businesses have to make money. . . My wife and I have been flying out of our small local airport to other nearby areas it serves. We have been to Denver, Dallas and phoenix watching baseball games. It is inexpensive during the week and the atmosphere is fun. We...

    Use Enough Gun

    I’ve taken a .30-06, .300 wm, 7mm-08 and a .375 wby to Africa in three trips. I killed the most game with the 7 mm-08 and 150 gr ablr which is not considered a “premium” bullet. I’ve never lost an animal but I did miss 2 or three. And recall please that many of these were taken on video and...

    That is one of the craziest things I’ve heard of happening. Hope they will recover well and make it home soon.

    Africa 2026

    the safari culture really caters to hunters AND their spouses. Most places offer side trips or activities for the visiting non hunter. My wife doesn’t hunt but enjoyed the pool and touring nearby towns and especially game parks with lions and elephants etc The park we visited even had a spa...

    Second choice is the 300gr tsx . . . Your mtn reedbuck is a heavy old ram, I’ve not shot one yet and he made me drool!

    Why horizontal stringing? 30-06 with high BC bullets

    I’m going to disagree. 212 gr eld x should not shift in 5mph wind at only 100 yards. The biggest flag I see is that you are using new brass rather than once fired. I do prefer a solid rest and never use a bipod for load work up-

    Nyala done right!

    The curls on that kudu are shallow so he won’t score as high as some. Your ph will find you a better bull!
