When I had my 375 Ruger Big Game worked so well with 260-300 gr bullets that I didn't try much else. The Sierra 250 gr and mono bullets of 250-260 gr is where I would look first. Of course if you can find them the 260 gr Accubond it's a great bullet. Took my grizzly and some black bears with...
Looks like Nosler doesn't list the 358 200 gr Accubond anymore which is a shame. I hope they turn the 200 gr into a Ballistic Tip which would work almost the same as the Accubond anyway.
They were great bullets. I shot my only (so far) caribou with the 180 gr PT Gold from my old 308 Norma Mag. Pretty sure along with the steel cup they also moved the Partition up too giving it more shank.
Yes that's the bullet I was referring to. Don't know if it's a coincidence but I have had great results with the Semi Spitzer Partitions too, specifically the 160 gr 270 and 220 gr 308.
Yes I have in two different Browning 300 WSM rifles. In mine it grouped well under MOA so we tried it in a friend's with exactly the same load and had the same results. Can't say every gun will but it certainly is possible.
That's pretty good speed out of an 18" barrel for a 225. I bet it becomes a favorite of yours to carry around. I believe they are getting close to 3000 fps with the 185 gr TTSX from the short barrels.
Not sure it was mentioned here but it has been reported a lot on the Patriot channels. With all the corruption being exposed now world wide it's a dangerous time for innocent people.
Nice gun Hawk. Scoop up some brass and dies and you'll be good to go. It's an easy cartridge to work with and get to shoot well, just make sure to full length size them because of the sharp shoulder and minimum body taper.
Finally have the chance to respond. The Super WSM video was pretty cool. I had a Browning in 300 WSM and still have the dies and brass. My Tikka in 6.8 Western was a 300 WSM and I still have the barrel for the future. With a barrel vise and wrench I could switch between both of them. Since mine...
Welcome, always nice to have another BC boy here. The Tikka's are pretty popular around here. They are also updating the twist rate from a 1 in 11 to 1 in 10. I've read some of the updated rifles are already making it out. I would imagine that the ones with the threaded muzzles would also be the...
