    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    What game are you wanting to hunt? Do you have the bullets you listed or are you simply contemplating that brand/style? I cast my own. As several of us have stated, thats the way to go for a hunting bullet. The.500 and the .41 would be my choice for hunting.

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    Based on my success with the Kieth style, the larger frontal area would be more of a good thing Scotty.

    Turkeys, turkeys everywhere!

    I have gobblers attacking their own reflection in our patio door and my chrome truck wheels in breeding season. Great game birds!

    Turkeys, turkeys everywhere!

    I just saw a flock go to roost while deer hunting. With all the cackling, it sounded like an urban block party ...lol

    Handgun reloading, dumb question.

    When you get out and hunt extensively, dreams become reality! Thats my experience.

    Handgun reloading, dumb question.

    I love my M29 too! Have had good results with AA#9 under a Kieth 215 Grain Lyman. Took a huge Razorback with it. After I hit the shoulder, He turned and came at me. I emptied the clyinder via double actIon to stop him. Fun times !

    Handgun reloading, dumb question.

    If you find extraction of the spent cases is snug, back down, you have reached the limit.

    How fast is too fast for a Nosler ballistic tip bullet?

    I took a I took a large buck broad side at 40 yds. 130 tip in my .270 clocks at 3,240. It exited. My friend hit a small doe about 80 yds. quartering to him. A 165 tip in the 30-06 flattened the deer but lost the core in the process. Velocity was 2,700 FPS . Hit more bone in the wouund chanel. .

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    It would be a 300 grain in the .44. Also keep in mind that frontal area adds to the killing power of handgun bullet. In addition, A Blackhawk can push a 300 grain @1,200 FPS. More penetration and bigger wound channel.

    Reloader 17 & 22

    Alliant powder is scarce now. Who knows how the sale will affect supply. Most, if not all the Reloader series are made in Europe now.

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    Way under gunned. This minimalist nonsense needs to stop. Respect our game animals and pack a .44 mag , .454 Casual with heavy, stoutly constructed bullets.

    Preferred handgun hunting bullet?

    The very early production XTP bullets did not expand well at handgun velocities. We stuck with the Kieth style cast bullets with great success. Things have improved obviously.

    Federal ammunition to Czech firm overwhelmingly approved 🙄

    Big business, i.e. box stores...Wallyworld, Lowes, AutoZone, etc. It's all from Asia. China primarily. I bought $900 fly rods from US companies, just like you did Danner boots. Good quality! It's a very small percentage of consumer expenditure. Quality is not paramount for the most companies...

    Federal ammunition to Czech firm overwhelmingly approved 🙄

    W Where you and I shop is irrelevant. Point is Most US business buy from China. Wellywood is likely the largest retailer in the country. Its good that you buy from US suppliers. Big business could care less.
