I use the 95BT for deer. Tried the 100PT and it shot well, the deer tended to run farther and leave LESS of a blood trail than with the 95BT. Double-lung hit doe ran 50yds into a huge thicket and DID NOT BLEED until the LAST 20 yds? I have spent too many nights on hands and knees trying to find...

The BEST part of SHOOTING a STW is watching the tall grass FLATTEN out for the 1st 100yds down range! LOL! :twisted: Then while lost in recoil hearing the UNMISTAKABLE "WHOP!" of a Ballistic tip hitting home! :)
My father shot a whitetail deer in 1967 with a 12 gauge (#1 buckshot). 1 pellet hit the deer in the side of the head killing it instantly. This was in front of 8 witnesses. The deer was standing broadside at 308yds! :shock:
3 years ago my friend "Clyde" shot a doe with his 6.5x55. It was the...
I have shot the 160 AB in my custom 7REM and could not get the VEL that I wanted. I tried several powders: IMR 4831, 4350,7828, RL 19,and 22. I NEVER got over 2900fps out of a 26" barrel. I DID shoot a whitetail doe at 140 yds with it and she dropped in her tracks, from a center chest hit?? I...
Howdy Yall! My STW was partial to 80gr. of 7828 and a 140 Ballistic tip. Went thru the gates at 3495 fps. Nearly took the chronograph down tripod and all! LOL! Had a custom 28" barrel + muzzel brake that would fit an Abrams tank!LOL!
Thanks guys! Hogs are NOT a game animal in TEXAS. They are considered VERMIN. Can be taken ANY TIME with ANY METHOD. The timber company that owns the land has a SHOOT ON SIGHT policy for hogs, the more we can kill the better. The LATEST estimate on their population in Texas is over 2 million...
Howdy Yall! Here in East Texas we are OVERRUN with wild hogs. I have a Rem. 742 30-06 and have been have GREAT success with the old military M2 ball 150gr. FMJ load. This rifle shoots them very well, plus they are $10.00 a box! So far I have killed 6 pigs with 3 shots! Saturday June 20th I...
Howdy! Again, I didn't get to try any of those 30-06 loads yet. The weather cratered here this weekend. LOL! I did try a 150gr. Federal Fusion factoy load. It performed great with complete target penetration nose to tail at a range of 30 yds. :evil: NOTE: ALWAYS check the wind direction...
Howdy! Again Yall! Mr. Bullet the 7mm prt does refer to y OTHER rifles. LOL! I own a Winchester Model 100 in .284 Winchestr, Ruger 77 Custom 7mm Rem Mag 26" Shilen barrel, Rem 700 ADL LA Custom .28 Winchester with a 24" Shilen barel, and a Ruger 77 MK II .243 Winchester. My 7mm's are very fond...
Howdy Yall! I have just joined your forum and hope to learn from this great collection of experts. :)
Now, I have just inherited a Remington 742 in 30-06. Shooting factory ammo is NOW too expensive. So I will be reloading for it out of economic neccescity. I have Nosler Ballistic tips and...
