.308...

That is absolutely true. Every hunter friend of mine is in love with one specific bullet type. In November I will go for a second run for stag. Since 2015 when I bought this gun I use AB, and I still stick to it I do have a .38 Mauser M12 with customized stock. I may put some pictures about...

I still have one can IMR3031 which I use for this. And also some: Stb 6,5, Match, RS60 (RL-17) Probably will start to try some 285gr bullets also, but it mourns for some spped for sure. :)

To be honest, it is still my favourite. I have Partition, PPU, Lapua Mega, Speer SP around me and still not seriously thinking about the change. I will rather speed up a bit. Due to the denser vegetation in the area where I usually hunt a bloodtrail sometimes would be really usefull, that one I...

Soo, here is the perpetrator :)

It's been a while I posted anything here but now it is something worth to mention. Just lately I managed to shoot my very first Stag. The antler seems over 11 lbs (5-6kgs), the weight without head and processed was 305lb (138kgs). The shot distance was roughly 120m. The AB fracture the...

I meant only just the bullets itself. Well I have to re-plan probably. Here the customs tend to become very curious about packages. Nosler and Sierra ammo here is like the white crow... but as I read in US also.

Although it is a senior thread and may nit be tge appropiate one for my question but I do nit want to open new. Soo, In November I will go to US. As many bullet here is almost impossible to get I have a vision that I may manage to buy some boxes from nosler/sierra/speer. But I have no clue if...

Well, I just came across this thread when searching about PPU conponents. To be honest my worst experince was with Hornady 9.3 brass. It was beyond my imagination. It was a brand new lot. I have RCBS setup, and a small partner press. I was poring sweat when I finished the forming of the new...

Here is the official site for this: https://www.sellier-bellot.cz/en/products/rifle-ammunition/rifle-ammunition-spce/detail/141/ The factory loading is 760mps so maybe I have to use CFE instead of Norma... I use Norma and Remington brass, with RWS5341 primer.

I think it is nor a AB type back, more likely a standard thickness everywhere. The cutting edge also holds together the lower body. That's why I do not really want to push the velocity higher. I assume above 800mps it would deform much more on impact, so deeper effect wpuld be reduced. (Although...

I have a same rifle. I will put some pictures from it. I changed the trigger to a direct trigger, and it improved my shooting. Although it was awesome, but too sensitive for me. I have a Docter(noblex) Classic 3-12x56 scope on it with EAW mount.

Here in Hungary the versatility of the ammo is obviously different than in US. We do not have any US bullet in the shops. Nosler, Speer, Hornady, Federal is almost impossible to get. Or at least just a few boxes. Therefore we rely on the EU manufacturers: RWS, Sellier and Bellot, PPU more and...

However for the AB the 2300fps from this caliber seems a bit low if it does not hit any bones. Or at least I got a strange experience. This year I shot a female red deer from about 150 yds. The bullet entered between the ribs and went through the ribcage, Exited also between 2 ribs. It went...

Dear All, Thank you for your kind words. I will try to be a useful member.
