The Accubond was my preferred hunting bullet for many years. I've taken many whitetails with the 160AB and nearly all of them passed through. I used the 250AB in a 338RUM to take a few bull moose. One went through both shoulders from a very short distance and was caught in the off-side hide. It...

I hunt different properties in NC and SC every year. I've been in at least 100 different elevated box blinds. They all lacked one simple feature: small shelves in the corners. In the morning when you can't see without artificial light, it would be nice to NOT have your gear on the floor. Binos...

I've got a Death Grip that I put on a Bogen tripod and have tested it with a variety of rifles. It is a rather rigid setup. I took a few shots at short range with it and noticed that how the legs are positioned makes a difference in the way the rifle(s) recoil. What I'm really interested to see...

I would be concerned about lead splatter at 7 yards. My buddy got hit in the face shooting steel at short range. The lead pierced his cheek just under his eye. He was wearing eye protection at the time.

There are probably more EVs in California than anywhere else. I find that interesting for a state that has rolling brown/black outs because they can't produce enough power. What will 10,000 (or 100,000) more EVs do to their supply? They better put a solar array on the roofs.

It certainly sounds like you had the right ammo for the job. LOL

This hog took a 140gr Creed hit on the shoulder which dropped him. He was quite alive when I got to him. I hit him in the head, pointing straight down, with a 9mm defense load. All it did was annoy him. I took a second shot and it still didn't kill him. A third shot and he finally gave up the...

Thanks for the info. We've got to look into this further. Do you know if they are capable of butchering and shipping the meat out? We would likely fly in.

Here is my understanding: NYC PD has many shootings annually to analyze the effectiveness of handgun bullet impacts. Specifically, the amount of time it takes to incapacitate a suspect based on a single hit in the core. Also interesting is how many rounds, in or out of the core area, it takes...

Sounds interesting. Could you provide us with some of the particulars? The who, what, when, where & how. My buddies and I have discussed a nilgai hunt every now and then but just haven't thrown the switch yet.

In NYS, only a certified LEOSA trainer or a DCJS Police instructor can administer the course. All agencies can recertify their retirees, but most don't have the resources or inclination to do so. Businesses have developed around the need to recertify all the retired Police and Peace Officers. In...

I have a modern gas furnace. But ..... Gov Hochul just banned gas hook-ups for new construction. She wants everyone in NYS to have electric heat. The crazy thing about that is most of the electric generated around here is from gas fired generators. The cost of electric heat is almost triple what...

I've still got a supply on Starline 45-70 nickel cases. I don't think they even make them anymore. I sure couldn't find any.

Notwithstanding a difference in bullet drop; it would be interesting to see what the difference in point-of-impact is at distance. Barrel harmonics should really come into play with a velocity variance that large.

I used an Oehler 35P for many years. It is a very reliable unit and Oehler guarantees them for life. However, I was happy to sell the Oehler and got a LabRadar because of the ease of setup. The Oehler is difficult to set up on a range where others are shooting because it puts you in front of the...

Unfortunately, I can't seem to copy a link without it including all of my personal Amazon account info. Go to Amazon and put "USB Magnetic Cables" in the search. There are MANY sets with varying numbers and lengths of cables that will work. I use a set to charge my LabRadar, barrel cooler...

The LabRadar ext battery has plenty of capacity. I normally shoot for about 3hrs. I'd get 3-4 sessions on a charge without issue. Recently I added a Y adaptor to the output side of the battery and run my barrel cooling device and the LabRadar simultaneously. Running both the battery is still...

There is something magic about 105H and 30gr of Varget in 6BR Lapua cases. :D

LabRadar and a LabRadar ext battery pack.

Shooting .451" diameter bullets in a 45-70 (.458") would be like shooting 270 bullets (.277") in your 7mm mag (.284"). Bullets would loosely fly down the bore and would not be stable. Jacket material "may" shear off in the rifling.
