    30-06 165 AB Trophy Grade

    Please tell me this, are you using H4350 for the powder charge in the 165 grain 30-06 trophy grade load? It shoots really well and would love to know the powder so I can continue to print these tight groups with my old Model 70 Winchester.

    A new Winchester 70

    Now that the holidays are over and I've been blssed with some spare change, I've been considering trading in my old Winchester Model 70 Classic Stainless in 300 Win Mag for a new Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in the same caliber, I am a little apprehensive though as no one I know has one and...

    8mm-06

    A while back my grampa bought a converted Mauser 98k in 8mm-06, while Nosler does have some impressive data for this gun, I am looking for something in the 220-250 grain range to shoot out of it for 200yds and minus bear and elk hunting. I have seen that Woodleigh makes a 250 grain bruiser and...

    BC for the 168 gr 30cal E-tip

    I bought a bag of 168gr 30 cal e-tips in the Proshop several weeks ago and forgot to ask then and there so does anyone have any idea what the BC on those could be? They are a LONG bullet and I plan to load them up in my tack-driving Model 70 in 30-06!

    A 300 Problem

    Well the bedding is the good old Synthetic factory style stock and all is good and tight both with it and with the screws. I hope my barrel isnt shot out! I've only had it for a couple of years. I'm not the first owner though.

    Savage 99 F ?

    Yeah that rifle should shoot good. My sister has one in 284 WCF and its a sweetie. I have a 99E in 308 and a 99 EG in 300 Savage, they both shoot good with pet loads though below 1" groups are VERY rare. I have a Leupold 4x on my 308 and shoot a 180 grain bullet over 45grs of H414 with a WLR...

    A 300 Problem

    I have a Winchester Model 70 Classic stainless in 300 Win Mag. The barrel has been aftermarket chopped and recrowned to 23.5" and it has a factory synthetic stock. The mounts and rings are leupold as is the scope. It usually shoots the 180gr. Partitions at about 2960 fps very well. My pet load...

    Nikon Buckmaster scope

    I had one with the BDC Bullet Drop Compensator reticle and it shot great. Not the mosat rugged scope as I dropped it while hunting and it landed on the ground and bent the windage knob. Nikon replaced the scope at no charge though but I sold it and bought another Leupy. I am a sucker for those...

    More brass suggestions for next year

    I think you all should go 25-06 for sure, 338 Win mag and the 270, 300, and 325 WSM for brass this next year. For starters anyways.

    30-06 With 150gr PT

    Hey guys, thanks for the response! Yeah I plan to go with the 165 PT, it shoots the best and at 2875fps, is plenty fast and flat enough for deer and elk. I wont take rear end shots or tight quartering shots on elk with any rifle, whether it is a 30-06 or a 30-378, 150 or 200 grain bullet. I just...

    30-06 With 150gr PT

    I was working on some more loads with my old favorite, the H4350 powder, and my 30-06. I have real good accuracy with the 150 PT and 59.5 grs of H4350. I havent chronied yet but i think I am close to 3000, about like 2950-2975fps at the muzzle. I dont care, numbers arent everything. My 30-06...

    Boyds

    Does anyone know the url for boyds vip stocks? I want to get a laminated stock for my model 70 Winchester as I am hating the synthetic pretty bad. It just doesnt feel right and I dont have the time to build up and finish a walnut stock for it.

    444 Marlin and 45-70 Govt.

    Will Nosler ever load for these two cartridges in their custom line? These two cartridges are quite improved when paired with a heavier premium bullet and a little more powder than what the Over The Counter ammo guys want to give.

    375 Ruger

    Will the new Manual have data for 375 Ruger and 338 Federal? I hope so as I have considered purchasing one or the other...leaning towards the 375. I sure would hate to not have data for Nosler bullets with this cartridge. I am thinking of the new Ruger Hawkeye.

    300 Win Mag-150 PT or AB

    Hey Guys, thanks for the help, especially you POP...I have decided to use the 165grain Accubond as it is more of a medium weight bullet. Has a little more beef for an occasional elk and hits almost as hard as the 180 grainer will. I want to get like 3050 to 3100 fps with this bullet. I plan to...

    300 Win Mag-150 PT or AB

    Hey POP thanks for the response. I know that a good rifle is capable of shooting the 3300 fps you mentioned yet I want to stay under 3200 fps for barrel-life reasons. With the 165, which I think is what I will end up shooting rather than the 150, for the occasional elk, I will be trying for a mv...

    Badger bites the dust!

    Hey Remmy, Sweet! Good Work...those things are so bad! They dig holes everywhere. I Hit one in my tractor one time and it jarred the tractor so bad that the muffler fell off. It was so hot I had to wait about 20-30 minutes to put it back on so that I could get back to work. I was miles from my...

    300 Win Mag-150 PT or AB

    What about a 300 Win Mag with 150 grain bullets? I use mine primarily for long range deer hunting as the elk hunting I usually get is closer range and I like to use my 30-06 for that. Sometimes though I use my 300 Mag. I want to load a 150-165 grain bullet for a little flatter trajectory and...

    300 Winchester-165gr Accubond

    I have tried the 180 AB with the exact load you have described except with a FED 215, and it just doesnt hold a group like i want it to. I got a chance to shoot some Federal Factory 165gr Solid Bases in my rifle and 10 shots, thats right 10, stayed in 1.75" at 100 yards! It wouldve been better...

    300 Winchester-165gr Accubond

    Hey fellas, Anyone have a good load worked up with the 165gr 300 Win Mag and a 165 Accubond. How will 71grs of H4350 shoot? I want a speed of 3050 fps which though rather mild is hot enough. The Ballistics Calculator tells me i will have just under 2000 fpe at 400 yards which is about all the...
