Yikes, those ABLR's look like crap. I know they're soft and all but suprised they sold them. I've been keeping an eye on that website ever since someone on here mentioned it. Some great bullet options. They had 22 cal Trophy Bonded Bear Claws, which are wicked for deer.
Can't imagine the 140gr Partition or Accubond wouldn't put a hurting on an elk at any reasonable distance. I haven't shot any elk with mine but the 140gr PT has really impressed me on deer. The copper bullets are another option but they need more velocity to reliably expand where as the PT & AB...
Have you chronoed that load? I wonder how that bullet does at lower velocity. I've shot deer with that bullet close to 1600 fps in my 454 and it holds together very well.
Not sure why they have to discontinue all of them and relaunch a "new" one. Unfortunately getting and installing a switch is becoming ridiculously easy. We're seeing it more and more on the job. I'm glad to see them addressing it.
Also if using H110/W296 do NOT go below minimum charge weights and use magnum primers for best results. Its a great powder for top velocity in the 44 among others.
Nice shooting y'all. I'm suprised from the lack of blood trail on the bow buck. The Accubond or Partition would be dynamite in the 6mm Rem. Those Ruger Number 1's are great looking rifles.
I got back from the woods this morning with my biggest whitetail ever. I sat in a stand that sits right between a large oak bottom and a pine thicket. I've had excellent luck in this stand and shot a good buck last year out of it. About a week or so ago, I started getting pictures of one of the...
I don't think you could go wrong with a 25 Creedmoor, 257 Roberts, 6.5x55, or 7x57 for bottleneck rounds. The 45-70 is definitely not a bad choice either! I love my Marlin 1895SBL. If you handload, you can make some fun shooting ammo for the range all the way up to laying out anything with four...
