Compound bow

.284 Win/300 Savage
Hit it with my friends .284, had to track it. Found it in the brush 100yds away and finished the job with the 300 Savage I retrieved before tracking.
Recieved the scope today. Just out of the box, I'm really impressed with the quality. Obviously, I can't vouch for the whole picture yet until its mounted, holding zero and tracking. If that's all good, then wow...
I guess I'll explain my Winchester fiasco. 2 red/black bags of 7mm-08 with shallow primer pockets....had to cut them to work. No problems other than that, not too bad.
2 bags of red/black 7mm rem mag, 4 or 5 culled right off the bat for forming wrinkles in the shoulder or neck. A few with...
What's the worst you've seen? Best? Options are very limited still right now so we use what we can get. Winchester is the worst I've seen/used personally. I've had some good Winchester, but the last two batches of Winchester were pretty bad. Best I've used is Lapua, but I haven't had the chance...
You didn't mention it, but the 90gr E-tip is really good as well. More weight retention and penetration than a 100gr partition I would guess. I wouldn't be afraid to use a 95gr ballistic tip on deer though either.
I haven't tried H4350 but it will work. I've used RL16 with 140gr Etips which is right next to H4350. Both powders are almost too slow for 140gr IMO. You end up with compressed loads(Not necessarily bad), Hodgdon says 48gr of H4350 max for 2850fps in 24" barrel.
I watched a lot of you tube reviews and decided to give one a shot. 6-24x50 FFP with zero stops for $325 shipped...with rings, throw lever and scope level! If the quality matches what I've seen reviewed...that's a heck of a deal IMO. Just thought I'd let someone know about this sale if they're...
You're bullets look the same as mine with off center tips. Barnes needs to get their act together! Sure wish Nosler would make a 120gr Etip that we could get. A 7mm100gr copper mono would be sweet too!
Generally speaking, I believe that's correct. Depends on the primers though. I haven't seen much difference but I've only used BR2s, 9 1/2Ms and 250Ms as that's what I have.
Loaded up a 9 shot Ladder, 120gr TTSX with Leverevolution. 46gr up to 50gr. I also picked up a magnetospeed sporter for good price, should work fine for the ladder. I'm working on something to mount it off of my bipod vs the barrel for shooting groups.
