In rifles I load 223 rem, 25-06, 270win, 7mmRM, 300savage, 30-06, 375ruger, and 480 Ruger.
In handguns I load for 9mm, 38spl, 357mag, 40s&w, 41mag, and 45acp.
No pictures handy at the moment but I'll see what I can dig up. None of the deer I've shot are all that impressive. One nice little 8...
Well it took me long enough, but I finally found the introduction thread. I'm from north central Ohio, about an hour southwest of Cleveland. I'm 32, and I'm an Air Traffic Controller. I hunt deer in Ohio and Pennsylvania, and also black bear in PA (no luck with the bear yet). I handload for...
Thanks for the replies. Might just get another box of 165 Partitions. I've already got a good load with them for my 300 savage. Its downloaded to about a topped out 30/30 at 2300fps It was the first load I shot with my Savage 99. It came in just over an inch. So I figured I'd save...
Thanks, I've been wanting to join for quite a while. You wouldn't have to push me too hard to get a 35 Whellen. It was on my short list when I was trying decide the last rifle I bought. And if I couldve found one in stainless Ida probably had one. Ended up with a 375 Ruger! Ive been...
So, I'm getting ready to buy a 308 win and I'm trying to decide which bullet I should try first. I'll be chasing big PA black bear (to 200 yards) and PA whitetail (to 300) yards. The rifle I'm getting has an 18" barrel. QuickLoad tells me I can get a 150gr partition to about 2800fps, and a...
I've been on the prowl for those 110 accubonds myself. I haven't seen them in almost a year now so maybe it's time for Nosler to make another seasonal run. I do have 115 partitions though, and they seem to be available more often.
I've used Hornady's H.I.T.S. calculator a few times but not enough to really see where it shines or has flaws. I'd say this relies a bit much on bullet weight & sectional density... which isn't always a bad thing for people that don't know whether or not they've got enough gun for a specific...
