    New camp/Truck rifle

    My brother loaned my son that model when he started hunting. I went to Gander Mountain and bought a box of Hornady 225gr FTX. Still have about a 1/2 box left. The second year he drilled a doe in the front shoulder , that bullet put quite a hole thru her.

    300 PRC and Hornady 212 Grain ELD-X factory ammo

    Centerfire rifles to hunt the world

    I would narrow it down to one. 416 Wby with my 350gr TTSX load. From squirrel to cape it’ll handle them all.

    20 cartridges to rule them all

    I agree on most of your list , but I would change a couple. 4) 243 Win I would scratch. Having both the 243 and 6mm Creed , I would choose the Creed. Shorter brass allows longer bullets not seated deep into case. The 10 twist barrels on the 243 are a thing of the past. 10) 338 WM would get the...

    Berger 70gr and Varget makes my 223 sing.

    New 6BR chambering test

    Looks like your rifle is up to par. I see a SD of 7 on the target , pretty consistent load.
