    Most recent Garmin chrono software update?

    Mine did the update in between sessions. Before the update, it missed 1-2 shots out of ~100+ shots. After the update, it missed 2-3 per 10 shots. Same position relative to muzzle Anybody have any ideas??? Not a huge deal for what I'm doing but it's pretty dang annoying.

    Smaller Calibers-Where/Why To Draw The Line?

    What physics? A 67% percent larger bullet doesn’t produce a 67% larger wound channel. Either way, yes, I am ignoring the “physics”. An elk doesn’t really care if the hole in its side is 4” or 6”. I care that I can more reliably and consistently put said 4” hole in the side of said elk...

    Smaller Calibers-Where/Why To Draw The Line?

    If you were to read through the 223, 6mm, and 6.5mm threads, could you tell those wounds weren't caused by a larger caliber bullet? I couldn't. Could you look a picture of a giant hole through an elk shoulder and be able to if it was from a 6mm 108 ELD-M or a 7mm 180 ELD-M? Not me. With that...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Powder has been showing good results. In all honesty, I just started reloading and it is the only powder I have used. I’m trying the 250s to see if the magnum can get the ES/SD down. I’m finding that with a less than full case, the ES/SD goes up. But, with a fuller case using a book max...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Loaded 50 rds of 7-08 to go shoot steel and started a load work up using some CCI250 primers rather than 200. I want see how the ES/SD is affected with the superformance powder. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Show your Tikka ten round groups

    I'm not going too quickly but not slow either. I'll get a shot off every 30-60 sec or so. If I'm at public range I usually let the guy to the left of me shoot his braked 338 Lapua and the guy to the right dump his AR mag.
