I would go with a 270 win with premium bullets in 140-150 gr and use the 375 h&h for any thing too big or too mean. For North America I started with a 35 Whelen and a 270 Win so you see how I lean.

Try the 52gr Custom Comp, with H322 or Bench Mark. You have a winner that hopefully ony shows more promis as you tweek its loads.

With the 180gr speer H322 come close and in some rifles tops 2400 fps in 20" barrels. Mine is a ported 18.5". That's why I am not using TAC or LVR with the 200 gr Rem CLRN's, Just burns too slow for my barrel. With your 760 I would use the 200gr flex tip and never look back. And the 220 Speer if...

I feel like I am taunting some one every time I ask about the 358 win and a new powder. I also would love to see new loadings for it at normal and + P for guns like BLR, Bolts, and 7600.

I am interested too, mainly for the 358 win. It is the listed velocity leader in the 338fed. I would love to throw the 225gr PT with an extra 100 fps which in my rifle would be 2540fps. I is the powder for using the 220gr speer or 200gr flex tip in the 35rem. But I have a life time supply of...

Most of us think of grouse as fast hard flushing birds from 15 to 40 yards. I have seen the grouse in northern Ontario that will let you kill them with a stone. A 410 would work great as long as it has a MOD choke or less. Look at a CZ Bob White double new for $800 they are choked IC and Mod...

Absolutly love that rifle, great setup with the VX3 2.5-8. Depending on ones needs a VX3 1.5-5 or 1.75-6 would work well in close cover. These are my three favorite big game scopes. I will up grade my 270win some time and the old VX2-7 will get replaced with the Vx3 2.5-8 and the 2-7 will go to...

Thanks guys for the advise, I have no knowlodge on the 308win specialy for long rage shooting. Wish I remembered the rifles make which would help on ID-ing the twist rate.

A friend just bought a 3-barrel set rifle 308win/300win/338lapua. For the 308 what wieght bullet should he load, 175, 190, or heavier? He can shoot up to 500 yards localy and His is going to take a sniper/reloading class for long range shooting too. I told him Lapua brass and Federal 210M...

Do not over look the Speer 145 grain bullet. The 139/140's by Nosler and Hornady are top picks.

With the case capasity of the 338 fed I would not go over 210grs. And the 210gr PT is simply perfect for Elk out of a 338 fed. It is really bullet length but use the 210 gr as a guide so one do not use up the space needed for powder. Hogs well I have only shot one a 200lb feral hog male, and a...

Deer slayer The decelerator pad is mainly to get rid of the cheap plastic but plate that came on my 7600. The recoil of the medium velocity whelen dose not bother me like the 7mm & 300 mags do. That slow delivery of recoil works for me, but a deceleratory would slow that down even more. A...

I have one 35 Whelen love it. The older 200gr PSP CL's worked great on deer. This bullet has been changed and is slimmer than the scant o-give hornady uses. For most lower 48 hunting the 225gr PT AB and the 220gr Speer would work great. Also the 760/7600 are free floated barrels, like the AR's...

I tried the TM solution and did not like it. Kroil oil first than butches seem to work for me. And like I said I have Hoppes #9 and Shooter Choice solvents too. I think with kroil alot of copper just comes out with carbon fowling and you do not see it. than the stuck on copper gets oxided and...

With my straight from the book loads using the Hornady 45 grain Spire Point, I have a 5-shot group of .82". If i throw out the first shot from a oiled barrel the flier its .52". Did this after I sighted it in. Soon as I measure the distance to the lands the plan is to load up some .01" longer...

I think lower speed is what causes the core to seperate more ofton. The jacket seems to expand faster than the core at lower velocities so the core sees less resistance than the now wide peddled jacket and gets spit out.

Batches of 50 and say 100 of a proven load. But you have to try new loads so there is another 50 rounds. I am not a high volume shooter even with my small bore 22's (223/221/22-Hornet).

Think I gonna like this gun now. I have a doe and very new born fawn living in rifle range so I did not sight it in. Took the rifle and cleaning stuff out to a ravine some 1/2 mile away to brake it in with what REM factory ammo I had left. Shot the 1/1/2/3/3 shots cleaning in between with...

Wanted to get this out quick. I neck size a few new Rem brass trimed them to 1.390" and set two of them with hornady 45gr spire points at the OCL specified in their manual which is shorter than the SAAMI Spec. Holding my gun barrel dow drop a empty case in the chamber and then incerted and...

Picked up my Pac-Nor match grade rebarred 700. Looks great deep dark bluing to match the factory finish. Clean it oiled it and chambered resized empty case. Cuts in the mouth and a large dint too. Tried a dummy round and it will not chamber? I just put it away would investagte it tomorrow. So...
