    7-08 and Game-Kings

    I've been playing with the sierra game changers in my short barreled 7-08.. It has never been particularly accurate, but groups them quite well.

    another 444 Marlin w/ 270 Deepcurl

    I have proven the 270 deepcurls will hammer hogs from the 444.. Had the opportunity to test one on a whitetail last season as well. The shot was approx 80 yards. I placed it low and centered in the chest. The bullet was recovered right next to the bladder. zero meat damage. Deer did run about 75...

    .429 270 grain deepcurl out of muzzle loader

    The 44 Cal section is slow, so I'll post some results from last year. I like the 270 deepcurl shot out of the 444 Marlin so much that I bought some harvester sabots and now load them for my 50 cal muzzle loader. http://www.harvestermuzzleloading.com I have had good luck with the accuracy and...

    444 Marlin w/ 270 Deepcurl

    Fotis, I have not chrono'ed it.. it is 47 grains of RL-7. We walked the grove last night.. It was very exciting.. Had a slew of piglets walk within 3 yards of us.. We sat and listened to them grunt as they walked thru the grove.. then we heard them run into a larger hog and scatter.. We...

    444 Marlin w/ 270 Deepcurl

    My buddy called me last night and told me he saw approx 60 hogs in the grove across the street. I have been working 72 hour weeks and have not had a chance to put the 270 deep curl on paper yet.. BUT, I ran home at lunch today and ripped off a three shot group. They are certainly minute of pig...

    444 Marlin 300g Speer "Plinker" Wild hog media..

    I'm still holding Scotty's 444 Marlin hostage trying to get him to come to Florida to shoot some hogs with me. Every now and again I have to rub it in a little just to fan the flames.. I have a local friend who has been telling me that he has a HUGE hog in the orange grove across the street...

    Jug Test Question

    I think it is both. When shooting a thin skinned animal like a whitetail deer that is standing perfectly broadside, most any bullet on the market will get the job done. When we step up to a larger, thicker bodied quarry, success can be defined by your bullet choice. I test bullets because I am...

    2017 Hunting Pictures

    My good buddy 280 Remington was cordial enough to let me camp at his home this year for a few days. I'm an east coaster and have never hunted mule deer and it didn't take him long to put me in the thick of things. I had two tags so I filled this one on the first afternoon and then decided to...

    75 grain Swift Scirocco - 22-250

    That it will Scotty. I'm still struggling to get the accuracy I want with the scirocco but they are vicious little pills when they connect. This is the second of two pigs I knocked down with them last week. 150 yards DRT on this one. The other ran about 50 yards and expired. He was as big or bigger.

    75 grain Swift Scirocco - 22-250

    I will, when I finalize it. I don't have anything of quality to share currently.. I will tell you I have been testing RL-17 in the 36-37 grain area and running speeds up to 3340. Seated around 2.450. Length to lands for me is 2.515 with the swift.

    77 grain Tipped sierra Match King

    I guess they call these MATCH kings for a reason... they shoot well, but I sure wouldn't want to hunt anything of size with them.. Estimated velocity of 2950, penetrated 2 jugs and lodged between 2 and 3. Recovered weight was 12.3 grains.. only 16% of the original weight. they group...
