I have to agree. For a hunting rifle 1 1/2 to 2 inch at 100 yards would be ok. In times past I would practice shooting a soccer ball size target at 100 yards off hand. When shooting like that it's very important how a rifle fit's. I'm just an average shot.There are other who did better than me...
I been useing Barnes X bullets but am switching over to E-tips. One of my go to rifles is a Ruger No.1 25/06 with a 26 inch barrel. First, How does the E-tip work compared to the barnes X bullet? Anybody have a suggestion for a good 25/06 load with a 100 gr. E-tip? thank you
Thanks for the reply. I have to say the 160 gr Partition is the most accurate partition bullet I have ever shot.For me,I'ts been hard to get my best groups with Partitions. Not to say they are not a great bullet, but just not as accurate as a BT or AB.I have 8 lb's of IMR-4350 powder so I'm...
Went to the gun show a while back and bought a box of Nosler .270 160 gr. partitions. Does anybody here use this bullet in a 270 Winchester? I loaded up a few with IMR-4350 and they shot excellent in my Ruger MKII 270 winchester. I may take it on my Elk hunt next year for hunting in timber.
Years ago I loaded up 48.0 gr. of IMR-4895 with a 150 Nosler solid base bullet for my M-1 Garand. Sold the Grand and had quite a bit loaded ammo left. Now I have a Remington 700 CDL,Remington 700 ADL both in 30/06. Went out the other day to shoot both my Remington M700 30/06 and both shot less...
I have a small collection of Ruger No.1's and about 2 years ago I bought a Ruger 1-A in 300 H&H. I installing a Leupold FX III 6X and headed to the range. Man, what one accurate rifle. I never been much of a magnum rifle guy but IMO I have had LW 30/06's that have more recoil than the 300 H&H...
My favorite rifle? I had bought 2 CZ model 550 in the last 6 months, 1 was a Model 550 American in .270 with a Kevlar stock and the other was a full lenght stock model 550 in .308 Winchester. Both shoot around MOA at 100 yards but the fit and finnish was marginal.I will never sell them I like...
Just wanted to introduce my self. I'm a hunting rifle addict of the worst type.Been hanging around for a while and seems like a very classy place. I don't belong to many forum. I think Nosler bullets set the standard for accuracy.I know when I trying out a new rifle if it won't shoot a ballistic...
Hopefully they will come out with the new model 70 Super grade in 300 H&H. I got introduced last year to the 300 H&H in the Ruger No.1 it's one of those rifles that shoot just about every thing accurate. 168 gr Barnes X bullets, 180 gr. Speer Mag tips, 200 gr. Speer grand slams and Sierra 220...
Just bought a new model 70 FW 22/250 and what a nice rifle! Fit and finish is just about perfect. When it's time for a barrel it will end up being the 250 Savage I have always wanted in a Winchester Model 70
Tough question. For years the only 22 rifle I owned was a Ruger model 77/22 that I bought new about 1985 when they first came out. Boat paddle style stock with green inserts and blued steel. A couple years ago I bought a CZ model 452 military trainer style .22lr. What a shooter the CZ is. The...
