I agree with Blkram, a lot of people have unrealistic expectations of bullets and how they perform.
Maybe they don’t really understand?
One thing to remember is that all of the animals you’ve mentioned are hunted quite often with a bow and arrow.
Whitetail deer are a curious thing. I shot the...
I had to read this a couple of times to understand it.
My comprehension is not good sometimes.😳
This shows pretty distinctly that seating can have an impact on groups.
Then you have some who would say not to bother….
That last group, 42.2 looks very nice!
I’ve been playing with 130 grain ttsx for my .308 Win.
I am struggling with getting anything consistent in grouping.
One day can be 3/4” groups which I would be more than happy with, the next 1.5” groups. (All at 100 yards)
My 150 grain Accubonds shoot 3/4 all day every day.
Unfortunately my...
I load up approximately 50 at the beginning of hunting season, and then if I don’t use that up it’ll probably get used through out the year, up to sighting in before the next season.
And then the process repeats itself….
I bought my model 94 from an older gentleman who I believe was in his late 70’s early 80’s.
He was selling it for his son.
As I was talking with him, he said that the rifle was “a shooter” and that it really liked those “new” Hornady bullets.
He told me that those shot really well in this rifle...
I have to agree with others.
Only shoot that distance at an animal if you have shot it on the range.
I understand the reasoning behind ballistic charts and programs but you never really know until you shoot it and then you are certain.
I’m also retired and on a “fixed” income.
I’m not good at using all that I have right now, so I don’t have any intentions on buying another firearm.
As JD338 has posted, it’s going to be more load development for me.
Depending on what NewYorkistan wants to do this 2025 hunting season, I may be looking into these.
My Model 94 loves the Hornady FTX bullets, but if they decide to go non-lead I’ll need something else.
I find it fun to develop a new load and I’ve heard some good things about these including this...
A confirmed liar from a long time ago!
He has been lying his whole career much of it documented, all the while the dems trying to tout him as the best ever.
What a joke!
Thank you for your reply.
I just worry that the “free” will become a “fee” like photobucket did.
I have an iPhone so I can only speak for that, but I can download to any site with no problems without an app to do so.
That’s why I was asking. I just have no need for one any longer.
I just size...
I try and get as many min charges and max charges as I can and make a decision from there.
I have a few loading manuals and there are a few more online that can be had.
Mostly they are not too far apart.
Welcome!
I have my opinion on this, but I’ve no experience in this regard to speak of, so no expertise.
However this post is a great example of how good this site is.
On other forums I’m a member of, one would have been insulted, Called various names, had their intelligence questioned, etc…. On...
Some very good points!
In my experience, while I was teaching, most catholic or Christian schools were being taught by teachers, most who were not able to get a job in a public school, and some were the nut jobs!
I used to disagree with school choice, but have since changed my mind and have...
