Whoa gentlemen, it was not my intent to in any way "put-down" the 140 AB, it is a very capable and well constructed bullet. I just thought that maybe the 140 was just under the hide and another 20 grains might have made it another inch or two. I really don't know exactly what happened so I...

no, JD338 I didn't :( . The willows were thick as hair on a dogs back and with no blood, I didn't have anywhere to start. Looked for 2 hours.

well guys, my hunt is long gone by now and no blood, literally. I shot a monster non-typical 10 point whitetail and no exit with the 140 AB. Here's the short story- 110 yards quartering hard away, couldn't turn him, leaving field, bullet placement was behind the last rib to take out off-side...

I have the itch for a another heavy barrel rifle in 7RM and have it narrowed down to a Remington Sendero or a Kimber Sonora. The Sonora is a little cheaper but can't find any reviews on accuracy. Any help?

hey guys, at the risk of sounding like a D.A., I'm using 140 gr AB's.in a 24" barrel. I don't know what I was thinking! My mistake . I'm finishing up my .308 that I'm using 150's in. I've got alot going on this week trying to get ready. I guess @ 3070 with a 150 would be great for me. Ha! sorry...

really, the lift wasn't sticky, bolt lifted smooth. It was the pulling back on the bolt that was tough. It took a little bump to slide out, I put the spent case back in and it bolted fine, bolt lift smooth, again had to give slight bump to start back. It is on a Tikka M595 and they have one of...

While working up my 7mm RM, started low and working my way toward max, when I got to 62 gr IMR4350 groups got pretty good. When I got to 63.5, groups were .583 (I can live with that!) but my velocity was 3070 with 150 AB. Then I proceeded to try to see where my groups started opening up. 64 gr-...

I' m having some pretty good luck with Varget in the loads I'm testing for my .308 right now.

I'm thinking of getting a long range (+/- 500 yard) 7mm. I'm leaning toward a 7mmRM, but I've found a nice Rem. 700 in 7mm Wby. Mag that's got me thinking. Is the 7mm Wby worth the extra recoil? The 700 has a Magna ported barrel. Does anyone have any experience with a Magna-ported barrel? I...

sounds like me, doesn't it? I really don't think so, eyes open, "called the shot" so-to-speak, felt good, etc. The first rifle is a Howa 1500 that has been bedded and freefloated, lugs lapped, and bolt-face squared. This is an extremely accurate rifle if I do my part. This group is the second...

Thanks DrMike, I'll stick with them if I can get them to shoot decent. This A.M they were flying all over, we had some pretty nasty winds this morning. I'll try again tomorrow.

Shot my first doe today w/my new rifle today. I jumped three and I had to sprint about 200 yrds to get ahead of them, so my shot wasn't the best. I hit her right behind the shoulder and high, clipped the bottom of the spine and took out some of the lungs, went two feet, straight down. I had a...

I shot the 140gr. Partitions Fri. morning, and they went around 1 MOA, I didn't measure.I didn't feel like my shooting was very good that morning(some mornings are better than others), so I just sighted it in and went on with my day. I've only shot 1 deer w/ Partitions and it was in a 300WSM...

I traded for a Steyr 7mm-08 today and the only bullets(other than BT's) I could find was Fed. Premium 140 gr. Partitions. Looking for some info on results or performance on stuff like Whitetail,hog, etc. I'll shoot it in the A.M. to see if it likes them or not. Any suggestions on other bullets...

P.M. sent to Antelope_Sniper

How do you guys control XS in you're loads. I've got some 150gr. AB's that shoot very well over WC846 that I purchased at a local shop. My problem is that I've got an XS of +/- 46 fps. That sounds high to me. No big deal @ 100-200yrds or so, but what happens at 300-350 is what concerns me. Any help

Thanks, Antelope_Sniper, I knew it started with an 8??, LOL. I've got a Barnes reloading manual and I could'nt find WC846. How does it compare to IMR4064 or Win 748? I've got a load made up w/ 44.5 grs of 4064 under a Sierra Gameking 150gr. SPBT, and it shoots good to. I don't have all of my...

man, that was confusing, it think I got it. I don't know the exact load. The guy that owns the business said it was a powder designed for the .308 by the military. I think it was 869?? I'll double check with him again and get the grns etc.

thank you, sask boy, it's a .308 w/ 22" heavy barrel

I bought some AB's from a store here close to home, took them to the range not expecting much accuracy from them (the business turns out thousands of rounds ) and WOW!. The first group was .405", the second was pittiful because of the loose screw behind the trigger, and the last group I settled...
