    Deer reactions when hit.

    I always thought some speed helped, causing massive hydrastic shock. I try to keep my hunting loads around that 3K+ fps area. Just seems to kill better and faster than the slower rounds. I typically aim for high shoulders on big game so they drop on the spot. I don't like tracking things...

    Reloading Help 25-06

    Not often you hear of guys having issues with a 25/06. I've had several over the years and they were always very accurate and easy to tune with a wide range of cases, primers, bullets, and powder. Since the rifle is capable of shooting under MOA with factory ammo, this leads me to think it...

    What centerfire, rimfire, and or air rifle comps do you participate in or soon will?

    I do some local .22 PRS and centerfire. Also LR steel/MOA centerfire out to 1200 yards.

    New Athlon Doppler Chrono Unit $350

    I've had the Garmin almost a year now, but have only used it the last couple months. It's worked flawless on everything from my 22 cal springer airgun at 750fps, to standard velocity 22 LRs at 1000-1100fps, 22 and 9mm pistols, and a good variety of centerfire rifles. It hasn't dropped 1 shot for...

    7 PRC or 28N, I'm pulling my hair out! **UPDATED**

    I really like my 7-300 Win Mag shooting 180g ELDMs at a mild 3000fps with 72.5g H1000. Its a hammer and super accurate out to 1200. Good luck on the big bull Jake. I might have to tag along and help spot and pack out your 400" bull!

    Photo Uploading

    Android Galaxy here. Won't work for me either when you click on attach files...But it does work if you click on the little picture box, next to the paper clip looking thing.

    Rifle scopes

    I've got a little bit of everything these days. Burris, Nikon, Vortex, Leupold, Nightforce, S&B. They all work for their intended purposes. I use to be strictly a Leupold guy, but over the years my eyes just haven't agreed with them.

    Completed transition from Alliant to Hodgdon...

    I made the transition to shoot Hodgdon in everything years ago. Have a good amount of Benchmark, H4350, H4831, H1000, and H110. Pretty much covers everything a guy could want or need right there. I did go to VV N540 for my 223 with 75-80s only because H4895/Varget was impossible to find for...

    .22 ammo..... need a thought or two

    I shoot SK standard, Rifle Match, long range, or CCI SV through a customized CZ457 w/Bartlein. They all average 1/2" at 50 and 1" at 100 for 5 shots. After 100 yards the clear winner is the long range and that's what I use for our local PRS matches. It'll make around 75% hits on a 20" gong at...

    R700 223 Wylde/80.5 Bergers/N540

    Thanks guys. Im fairly happy with it for now. The rifle was mainly built as a 1K trainer on steel. Saves barrel life and components on the 6 Creed and 7-300 Win Mag. But it will also see the occasional local PRS/MOA matches and I'll probably take it out some this winter and see how the 75g ELDMs...

    R700 223 Wylde/80.5 Bergers/N540

    Made it to the range this morning with the R700 223 Wylde, 28" Bartlein HV 8 twist. Loaded up 19 more rounds with the 80.5 Berger/24.5g N540 and did a 10 shot group at 100 and a 9 shot group at 300. By the time I got to 300, the last 4 or 5 shots the wind had picked up a bit and so did the...

    FS: Lapua 300 win mag brass

    I've got 100 virgin Lapua 300 Win Mag brass. I'd like to get $190 shipped. I bought them to use in my 7-300, but they won't work without neck turning, and that's not something I'm looking to do or invest in right now. 1 case has been sized down to 7mm for measurements. After taking notes and...

    What will be your cartridge/rifle of choice for this fall? Second?

    Didn't draw anything, so I'll be doing general fall black bear and possibly a predation cow tag. Will be using the R700 7-300 Win mag with 180g ELDMs at 3000fps. 28" Bartlein w/4 port brake, A5 McMillan, and a NF NXS 5-22x.

    WTF????

    How anyone gets a 125 yard shot on a president these days is beyond mind boggling. Then you have cops running around like ding dongs looking for the shooter on the ground, when the bystanders were clearly pointing and yelling on the roof...To me, it all sounds like everyone did nothing so it...

    .22 Vudoo just came in

    Looking good right out the gate. Shooting an accurate 22 is way more fun than it ought to be. It's not exactly cheap per se, but then again nothing really is these days is it? Still cheaper than centerfire, and every bit as fun! No time spent handloading, or replacing outrageous component...

    223 Wylde AR with 53g vmax/73g eldm

    No, I'm from Hermiston amd do my shooting over here, or in Echo on Madison Farms. I've only shot in MF a couple times for the PRS style 22 shoots.

    25-06 future

    As much as I love the 25/06, it just makes more sense these days to have a 6.5/06...It just does everything better. I'll probably do a 6.5/06 with a 26" tube after my 6 creed shoots out for a LR coyote/steel rifle. But then I have the brass issue...haha

    223/75g ELDM nailed

    Yup! I'm gonna pick up a box of 80.5g Bergers today and when I get some exyta time play with them a bit.

    223 Wylde AR with 53g vmax/73g eldm

    Shot some 53g vmax over Benchmark and 73g ELDM over IMR8208XBR yesterday. Loaded the 53s to 2.260" and the 73s to 2.3" in ASC mags. These were the winners. Good enough for a gasser with Hornadys and throwing some loads together. Not going to mess much more with it. 1/2 MOA with an AR in my mind...
