Yes, I have experience that with the regular Accubonds in the past and assume these LRAB will need a jump also. Most hunting bullets do need a good jump. Thanks for the reminder :)
Got a box of 150gr Nosler Long Range Accubonds that a friend is sending me to develop a load that will be what my Nosler M48 7mm08 will need for the task of taking Coues deer at around 600yds. I have developed a 150 BT load but out of them and I want to do some short cutting by asking anyone...
+ ONE! Yes so would I like to know since Barnard also known by the Shangaan speaking tribes of Mozambique as “Bavekenya” (translated means the man that swaggers when he walks) his primary weapon of for taking elephant and buffalo was a German built Mauser in 9.3
Russ, Vince, Guy, great comments and appreciate you post. Yes, wise choices in what you carry and keep on you and also where you go and do not go. Thanks
Yes indeed Mike, some have paid dearly and I am glad I was not one of those. Even after all the years I have hunted, I still made those mistakes that day. I broke my main rule "Think about where you are, what you are going to do and take your time doing and don't rush."
It is not the rifles but the extensive load work that bears the fruit and proves the point about the boat tail, but not trying convince you, because I don't think I could, just stating what has happened and that most of those who have done extremely extensive load work know to be true.
All of my factory rifles that I have owned (41 factory made) would shoot after load work was done the boat tail more accurately and of course my customs and high quality rifles like the M48 TGR, Weatherby Mark V's and some others shot the boat tail more accurately after load work was finished.
My most accurate loads have been boat tail and I guess I have worked with a few rifles, bullets and cartridges through the years and posted quit a few of them on this forum from time to time.
