    How fast is too fast for a Nosler ballistic tip bullet?

    The litmus test of that bullet will be velocity at impact and what it happens to encounter on impact. The closer that happens to be the more stress will be put on that bullet but my experience with the .284 cal 150 gr BT has been dead animals both near and far with mostly pass throughs.

    Hornady 150 SST

    117 gr SST bullet at 3300 fps with impact at 50 yds, is that actually a bullet problem or a bullet being used outside it's design parameters

    Hornady 150 SST

    When the SST first came they were just like the first Ballistic Tips. Very frangible. Hornady, like Nosler "toughened" up those bullets. I have found right the opposite with your "grenade" comment. I have also found that the SST acts pretty much the same way as the lead tipped versions of the...

    Reloader 16 and 23 at Natchezss

    They are out of RL-26 but have RL-16. 61.00 per lb or 452 per 8 lbs. I like Rl-16 but not that good. They've lost their rabbit a$$ minds.

    Outrageous Prices

    How many did you buy? LOL Im glad I laid back several thousand primers, along with several thousand bullets and many, many pounds of the powders I use when Trump was in office.

    I was outbid

    I bought a Styer ProHunter many years ago. That thing would shoot lights out. Wished I would have kept it.

    Powder is coming down.

    Ive got plenty of "spark" stashed away. With primer prices being 12-15 cents or more per piece I feel really good about the 3-4 cents I spent when I squeeze the trigger on my rifles. Most of my "bricks" were 30-35 dollars

    Powder is coming down.

    I wished the "reloading stores" in my area would get the memo to lower prices because what is available outside of Ramshot powders require a second mortgage to buy.

    Back to muzzle loading

    This is a bullet I pulled from a buck I killed this past Oct with my muzzleloader. Its a 300 gr Harvester Scorpion PT Gold. If you'll look at the kill pic you'll notice a bump on the neck. That's where the bullet stopped. The buck was about 65 yds away and hard quartered to the left. I aimed on...

    Heart Attack while Hunting

    Glad you are doing better. You have truly been blessed. On another note, that pic of you is not the face that launched a 1000 ships. LOL All joking aside, Ive had to do CPR on three different people, two of which were close friends, both did not make it.

    7mm-08 Quickload Compilation

    Ive also had good success with the 139gr SST and Varget. Matter of fact my plans are to "work" on that load in the coming weeks.

    Outrageous Prices

    I haven't been in a Dicks store in several years either and for the same reason as you. As far as Im concerned Ed Stacks, the owner of Dicks can ride his high horse of anti second amendment prejudice off a cliff.

    Outrageous Prices

    Cabelas price.. I'm glad I've still got 2-3 bottles that I found on clearance a couple years ago. I think I paid 14 dollars per bottle.

    7mm-08 Quickload Compilation

    I run Varget right now in my 7-08 with 140 gr Sierra Game King bullets. Ive also got a real good load with 150 gr Nosler BT's and Big Game powder.

    Got an email from Brownell's.

    Found IMR 4350 and Varget for 52.99 at my local store the other day. I hate these prices as well but my question is, what's a person to do if you need those particular powders. You either pony up and buy it or do without.
