    165gr .308

    I think that people get too worried about the numbers sometimes. When you actually get out and shoot, you tend to realize that in most hunting situations those numbers mean a lot less than you thought they did. I agree that BC is a big deal when you are shooting in heavy wind at 500 plus...

    165gr .308

    If you go back and actually read my post you will see that I was responding to mrandrew who questioned why people liked the nosler so much due to its low BC, or Ballistic Coefficient, and that the Speer had a higher BC, or Ballistic Coefficient of .52. My response was to him basically saying...

    165gr .308

    If you run the numbers there is a sub MOA difference in drop between the two, the Partition at .410 BC and the Speer at .520 BC at 2640 FPS out to about 475 Yds. The drop for the Partition at 300 Yds is 15.9 inches vs the drop for the Speer 14.9 inches. Now I'm a pretty good shot, but I know in...

    GPS Units

    I'm a big fan of the Garmin foretrex 401. It gives me all I need to know from a GPS, it also come in a light weight and small package. I always have a map and compass on me provided I can find a map for where I am. Back home in NC it is a little different the area is much smaller.

    At the police range yesterday!

    I always tell the young guys on my team "old age and treachery trumps youth and abilities". Its hard to keep them humble sometimes.

    I have been lurking on the forum for quite some time, and finally decided to register. I have been into long range shooting big time for about three years. I hand load for 300 Win Mag, 270 Win, 308 Win, and .44Mag. I hope to soon add to that the 6.5x55SE, but dont tell my wife, she doesn't...

    Thoughts on Horus.

    Thanks, I know it sounds crazy, but check out Bushnell tactical. I am not where I can take photos of my setups right now, but I was shocked at the quality of the Bushnell scope. Also Schmidt and Bender has them if your willing to drop the coin on them. Like I said it takes some getting used...

    Thoughts on Horus.

    Not too long ago I picked up an H59 scope and love it. At first I thought it was a little busy but I got used to it pretty quickly. I like the fact that I dont need to dial for windage or distance. I have one on my 308 and 300 win mag and find it very effective. What are your thoughts?
