Aleena has also said that she prefers woodleigh, Northfork and Norma over the Rhino
She also mentioned that over the years that Rhino has continued to improve their product and that their product of today is better than their product of yesteryear. Things change, sometimes for the better. I...
Fotis, I dont think Aleena will be back, at least not today, because of a personal issue her family is dealing with.
The short answer is Rhino
On day at LEL, Aleena was explaining to Tom and Scotty how their "Solid Shank core bonded bullets" work on African game and they both simply said they...
DR Mike
LMAO------but true!
why is it that only Tom and I understand what a fine caliber the 30-06 is
Aleena---thank you. I have never used them but have always wanted to do so and now we will
Scotty, looks like you got some for the 338
do you want us to look for some 7mm, so as to give back to your friend. We had requested 338 when we sent the carrier pigeons out. I am sure you would take more of the same thing, but besides the 7mm, what would you like to have. We may come up...

David, I dont want to over simplify this, but it is as simple as what Ridgerunner has stated. You will have no problem using regular 280 Rem loads. We have two totally different 280 AI rifles that use Nosler Brass and everything works just fine and they can both use the 280 Rem with no...
That is great you got to speak with him. I think you are headed west soon for an Elk hunt, maybe you could arrange to sit down with him when your in the western part of the U.S., that would also be an interesting and informative meeting.
Gerry is correct, it would be a shame for those bullets...
Scotty, he loaded up some Nosler 160 gr. She got her load from Cheyenne, who said she got it from you. If you remember she rides and she has really taken to the BLR. We have not seen her use a bolt action since her bear hunt. She might be a girl after your own heart, as she has ask for a 308...
I ask him that Scotty and he is going to look and if so is going to send them to you. I also ask him to look for any pictures of them that he took out of an animal and again if he does we will send them to you also. I hope you remember what I told you his filing system looked like, so this...
Scotty, my uncle tells me that after he received the BBC bullets he would put them in a box, especially after he opened the bag. So the one's we find could very possibly be in a box and not in the original bag, although he would also keep the bag as well as mark the box. If he is successful in...
Gerry, I found it but it was back on May 7th. The one box available at that time was loaded 270 150 gr oryx at Graf and Son. Wolverine and Grouse River in BC were mentioned as two suppliers in BC that should receive some when Norma sends another shipment to North America, hopefully by the end...
both the "weldcore soft nose" and the "protected point" are tapered and the protected point also includes the weldcore technology. The protected point that Rigbymauser uses are excellent all round hunting bullets. They may not be "the best ever", but they are excellent hunting bullets.
Gerry...
Scotty, found my notes and I was wrong about the Woodleigh and A
A was talking about the GSC and Norma Oryx, but not in conjunction with the Bitterroot conversation.
April was talking about the Ackley Controlled Expansion and Northfork in conjunction with the Bitterroot conversation. ACE...
Scotty,
maybe pm April, Hank, Doug or George on a different forum. One of them might have some. I would start with April. You might also try Kevin
As I mentioned to you my uncle used them and liked them but doesnt have any left or we would send some to you.
I think A said something...
excellent post----+ 1
we shoot a lot more animals at under 200 yards than over 200 yards and in one of the positions Guy listed. When shooting a pissed off coastal grizzly at 50 yards or less, minute of dead is all your thinking about
David, as mentioned Aleena used a 280 AI on her Marco Polo hunt successfully. A friend up this way has one that he swears by and uses it for sheep, goat and caribou. His is built on a win 70, pre 64 and I ask him about the feeding and he said it obviously is not as slick as the regular 280 but...
wow, I thought this was over and done with approx 10 days ago. For what possible reason is it necessary to bring this dormant disagreement back to life. Everybody else has been talking about a variety of 7mm calibers for approx 10 days, without any disagreement I might add.

Find one and chamber a couple of rounds. That may, all by itself, sell you on the 300 H & H. It is one of the most reliable and smoothest feeding rounds I have used. After we moved my wife wanted to get something besides her 30-06 and A suggested a build using a pre 64 model 70 with...
Charlie,
Aleena would be right there with you. She loves 300 H & H and has used it to hunt Europe, North America, Africa and New Zealand. My wife shoots the 300 H & H and it works for her as well. We recently purchased a 325 WSM BLR to be used as an all purpose/all family gun. We will...
