    Accuracy but no speed?

    I loaded up some more test loads at 59.5, 60.0, 60.5, and 61.0. 59.5 and 61.0 shot horrible but the other two were pretty decent, and I was getting speeds of ~2950fps and I don't get any stiff bolt or anything and the primers didn't look any different than the other loads. Thanks for the advice...

    Father/Son Callin and Killin Coyotes

    The only load I could ever get to shoot good out of this ruger was REALLY slow. So I pulled all the bullets out of that ammo and those are getting put to use in my Tikka. But I worked up this 110gr Vmax load to see how they shot out of my Ruger and I was surprised when it shot about a 3/4 inch 5...

    Father/Son Callin and Killin Coyotes

    I couldnt take it anymore fellas. I HAD to get out and call some coyotes. I picked up my dad at about 5 pm and we headed out of town to my regular calling areas. I have taken Dad out calling before but for some reason, I have never been able to call a coyote in while Dad was with me. We have...

    Accuracy but no speed?

    150 Btips are only runnin about 2600, and 130 ABs are about 2850. One other question guys. I started getting flattening of primers with some of these loads. I didnt worry about it since speeds were slow and I wasnt getting marks on brass or sticky bolt. Should I still bump up the charge?

    Thanks guys. Im still really new to the long range game and Im always trying to learn new tips and tricks. Like normal, doping wind is what gets me the most but I guess I just need to pick a breezy day and go burn some ammo up on rocks or steel. maybe Ill go out one day this evening if I can...

    Accuracy but no speed?

    Thanks guys. Im not so much worried about the AB load but I just wish the 150gr load was a little faster. I have no idea why I want or think it needs to be faster. Ive got some 4831sc test loads with 140gr Hornady BTSP and still have some loads with 130gr Btips too. So Ive still got some shootin...

    Accuracy but no speed?

    Ive found some good loads for my 243 and new Tikka 270 Win. First of all, Ive got 130gr Accubonds loaded with Win brass, CCI 250s, and 58.3 and 58.5gr H4831sc. Im only getting between 2800-2850fps. These loads shoot just under an inch consistently but just slow. Nosler book states close to...

    New Deer rifle coming in tomorrow

    I was close! I really do love my T3 270 Win. I adjusted the trigger on mine to where the little black set screw touches the big silver allen head bolt in front of it and the trigger is S-W-E-E-T now!

    Grizzly Pics from Tonight

    Just saw on facebook from a guy that lives abut 15 miles north of Choteau that a grizzly sow with a cub have killed 44 ewes/lambs in 2 days up there......Fish and Game is going to try to trap them but will only relocate them since she has a cub. Which means they will just do it again somewhere...

    Grizzly Pics from Tonight

    Right down along this river, there have been multiple incidents with bow hunters getting charged by bears. There is no way I would ever bow hunt down there during early season for elk. Only time Id hunt along the Teton is late oct and nov. My dad was talking to a guy at the coffee shop a few...

    Grizzly Pics from Tonight

    It is fun watching them but when I can basically say "I want to go look at grizzlies tonight", and go out and usually find one without any trouble at all, to me it means there is getting to be too many. There were multiple bear sighting reports in the sheriffs report in the paper today. I...

    Grizzly Pics from Tonight

    I went on a drive this evening and found another griz. When I first saw him, he stood on his back legs but my flash was on so of course the pic didnt work. He went back in the bushes and I waited about 5 mins and he came back out of the brush and then walked across the road right in front of me...
