    2017 Hunting Pictures

    My future huntress' first elk hunt. Her preschool was closed due to inclement weather so we went elk hunting. This was on a damage tag on our farm. 125 yards with my Supergrade .270 and 130 Grain Ballistic Tips over 60 grains of H4831SC at around 3,050 fps. She was a trooper and helped me...

    7x57 Ackley - Custom Build

    This sounds awesome. Didn't realize you could go this route to make an Ackley out of a short action. Sounds like a shooter too. I originally was fire forming with H4350, had really good luck with it. My gunsmith just threaded a Tikka T3 barrel and said it was the truest factory barrel he'd ever...

    7x57 Ackley Improved QL Request

    Looking back at one of my first groups with it; the first group with bergers was .22" as well. Hopefully it stays this good. download/file.php?id=8295&mode=view

    7x57 Ackley Improved QL Request

    Fouling shot followed by a 3 shot group. This gun likes Varget as well as H4350. Pretty happy with the accuracy for just fire forming.

    210 gr VLD or ???

    The only game I have ever seen taken with a VLD was a huge cow elk taken with a 105 Grain Berger VLD Hunting out of a 6MM Remington Ackley Improved. The elk didn't even go 5 feet, just stood there for a second and tipped over. The terminal performance of that little bullet was really impressive...

    165gr Nosler BT VS Coyote Warning:Graphic Wound Channel

    My 130 grain .270 Ballistic tips must have come from the same lot because they did the same thing. Must be a bad run of bullets. Split this one from stem to sternum.

    270 winchester makeover complete

    I love it! Looks about perfect to me! With H4831SC mine will do about 1/2-3/4 MOA if I do my part. Just a thought. I have taken 5 elk with a that combo and all have gone less than 10 yards at ranges from 142-411. Nothing wrong with the 270. I use 130 grain Ballistic Tips. Well done! Beautiful...

    1911 Case destroyed - Any ideas?

    Thanks Guy and 26NosFan. Brand new, I'll try running a couple Winchester white boxes through it. This is one of my "carry" guns and don't normally shoot +p just wanted to make sure they functioned properly. I wish I could find some Nosler defense ammo for it but can't find it anywhere. It shoots...

    1911 Case destroyed - Any ideas?

    I recently purchased Para Expert 1911 in 45 auto. I have shot approximately two boxes of ammunition through it. I recently took it to my gunsmith to have the trigger cleaned up a little. At the gunsmiths yesterday I fired two test rounds. The first test round the case was completely destroyed...

    Sorry guys, I haven't posted much since last winter and the sticky for the QL must have come up since then because I have never seen it. Sorry to waste your time and to make redundant posts.

    7x57 QL Request

    Thanks Scotty et al. Before I got this I loaded 45 to 49 grain in 1 grain increments. At 49 grains there are no pressure signs at all, think I'm ok or back it off? 49 grains should be at 60k. I don't have 17 but I'll look for some. The shots for 48 grains and 49 grains were touching so I'm...
