We all shoot 338 Lapua. 300 Grain Berger OTM and 300 SMK's.

I and couple of diehard long range shooter friend went out last Sunday to shoot steel at long range. I haven't been shooting much lately ever since I got into cycling so when my buddies called, I skipped my ride that day and went out shooting instead. I'm glad I went. We set up our steel...

I will use long action if I were you. The 7WSM has a very short neck. Loading a heavy 175 or 180 grain for WSM requires you to seat the bullet much deeper into the case if you want it to fit the magazine, thereby reducing powder capacity. I load this cartridge for my switch barrel Target rifle...

This is the picture of the recovered 180 grain Barnes TTSX bullet from a hog that my friend Frank shot a couple of weeks ago. I reloaded this bullet for his Gruning Custom 300 Weatherby rifle. The bullet was recovered underneath the hide on the lower chest area after entering the right ham. I...

I shot it with my Model 70 Laredo LRH loaded with 180 grain Barnes TTSX, Dr. Mike.

Thanks guys. Yeah I haven't hunted much since I started cycling. I didn't realized how much I missed hunting until I shot this hog 2 weeks ago. I hunted with my buddy Frank. We both harvested a hog.

Here's the picture of the hog I shot from my last weekend hunt.

I admit I'm a gadget freak when it comes to shooting and reloading. I've always buy crap that I really don't have need for and they ended up taking space on my already crowded reloading bench. Enter the GemPro Digital scale. I bought it just for curiosity in order to find out how accurate my...

Like Scotty said; sometimes weird things happen when bullet met flesh and Barnes TSX is not immune. My experienced with TSX is the opposite with yours. I haven't seen any bloodshot meat on animals I've taken with TSX. The last one was the whitetail I shot with 180 grain TSX from my 300 Weatherby...

I've had the pleasure of shooting with a guy a few years ago that has the 3.2-17 USO on his 308 Tactical. He had me shoot a couple of rounds and I was impressed with the scope. I did not experienced the tunneling effect that you described. But maybe because it was set at higher magnification...

Just finished weight sorting the newly loaded 6 BR rounds that I'm testing this weekend. It is always my contention that uniformity and accuracy of the load goes hand in hand. Or put it another way, you cannot have accuracy without uniformity. So here's the result I've got after weighing 50...

Scotty, I have the 3X18X42 Tactical with MP-8 Reticle. This is the third replacement scope the IOR sent me. Made a mistake in mounting the first 2 in my 338 Lapua Ackley. Both scope lasted 60 rounds. Can't take the recoil of the 338. I love the glass however so it ended up in my 308. Not sure...

For a while now I've resisted using an F-Class type Bi-pod, preferring rather a Harris or Atlas instead. Almost all top shooter in our local competition uses Sinclair F-Class bi-pod. I don't feel like I'm at a disadvantage. But maybe they know something that I don't. So I went and got me one...

It was last Sunday and it did not went well for me. It was so windy that none of the top shooters ever made it to the top ten. I was on the 5th and last relay. By the time I started shooting the wind picked up, gusting from 15 miles to 20 miles an hour... to much for the 130 grain Berger to...

I still have mine; Model 94 30-30

Looks like just about right. After doing a hundred of those you won't need tempilaq.

Guy, First time I saw a US Optics scope was at a Gunshow way back a couple of years ago. I saw a guy in the US-optics booth pummeled another brand of scope using a US optics scope as a hammer. Tough scope... a bit on the heavy side though. The lens is superbly bright and very clear. The Erik...

My first ever FFP rifle scope. Mounted it on my 6.5-47 Lapua for the upcoming 1000 yard shoot.

Congrats Jeff. Nice shooting buddy. Keep it up.

Congratulation Fotis. I had a talk once with Dave Viers way back regarding this cartridge. I will be following this thread.
