    How Much Jump Do 142 LR AB’s Like?

    Ernie, I think there are several things that contribute to the results I have seen with these two bullets: The jacket is thinner than the AB's in the area of ogive (requiring less force to start engraving). The long tangent ogive of the bullet results in a more gradually engagement of the...

    How Much Jump Do 142 LR AB’s Like?

    Ernie, although most people have good results with longer jumps, I have had some good results with about 0.030" jumps with the ABLR. Specifically, 0.030" jumps with the 129 gr. ABLR in the 6.5 Creedmoor, and the 150 gr. ABLR in the 7mm WSM. I can provide targets if you like. I also have an...

    So Glad That I Tried Different Rifle Cartridges & Loads!

    Good assessment, Guy. It is amazing how conditions and things change over time. Once I thought I had the perfect combination of rifle and cartridge (for deer hunting), but then I had nerve damage to my shooting eye and had to switch to left-handed shooting. That sure changed things and...

    300wsm

    That is a fine combination. I really like the 300 WSM and have shot a couple of elk with the 180 gr. AB.

    A little too small

    I know from personal experience that fence wouldn't have stopped that bull had he any real motivation to get on the other side of the fence. I had an angus bull CALF run right through a three-strand electric fence one morning when I was trying to get the cows in.

    This day 1969

    I was 18 years old and just graduated from high school. I was helping out on my grandfather's farm and helping my uncle add an addition to his house. It was the only summer since I was 12 years old that I didn't have a full-time summer job, just helping Grandpa and Uncle LaVern. Went to...

    Here kitty kitty

    I once heard that a mountain lion averages a deer kill every three days, but I have no information to back that up. At either rate, it adds up to a pile of deer and other animals.
