    New copper tariff???

    I wonder if the e-tip will be affected. So far Barnes has not listed anything in this regard. That said I do know that hammer uses a specific type of copper that's got to be imported and for a lack of better terms as I understand it it's super purified to get consistent results I don't know...

    45-70 and 350gr Hot Cor?

    That's a very good load also be advised that the sper 350 was originally made for the big magnums so don't expect too much expansion once the velocity decreases

    Got my Pronghorn

    Wife will not let me even bring it to the house! She hates the smell. Too bad because with her Greek cooking skills she can transform it to anything! Anyway, have been giving them away for the last 20 years or so to disabled veterans or the less fortunate. Nothing goes to waste.
