    Maximum acceptable group size?

    1 inch for me also. My average shot on elk is 300 yards, as I hunt in hilly mountainous country. Longest measured shot to date has been 540 yards. Most of my shots are from the prone position with a good solid rests and lots of time. Shortest shot? Probably 25 yards or a little less, a 10...

    Ever see one of these?

    The case is a 30:06 case manufactured in St Louis from 1941 to 1945. The diameter of the bullet would help in determination of the cartridge. Even outside case diameter would help. The data I find shows the Gibbs overall case length to slightly shorter than the 270 and longer than the 06...

    Oregon 177 Fort Rock unit buck deer

    In the past the bigger bucks hung out along the fringes of the timber west of Ft Rock. My last time I was in there was in the early 60's but deer like elk seem to favor the same areas, year after year

    Nosler Accubond seating advice

    Keep shortening them, in small increments. I love the AB's and hunt with them, but they can be cranky to load.

    concentricity issues

    I cannot say your worrying is unfounded because you really didn't explain what if any changes have occurred in your shooting or accuracy. If you see no change then yes your worries are unfounded. I have never measured the concentricity on a case in my lifetime. I have been loading for 60...

    I am ashamed to say that I will most likely die before I run out of reloading components, and weapons.
