    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I hadn’t been finding them either by searching through the filters on bullets. However, I located them by searching for Sierra tipped matchking and was able to get some ordered.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I have been looking and can’t find some? Do they have them labeled under a different name maybe?

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    So this thread has convinced me to order a Tikka in 223 today and give it a try on Texas game. Will be crows, hogs and deer. However, I can’t find any of the 77 gr TMK’s anywhere to try out. I’m trying to get things ordered so I can start putting loads together. Is there any discussion in here...

    6 BR/Dasher vs 30 BR

    So I have been playing around a reloading program to estimate some velocities. The 6 dasher seems to win for efficiency and burning powder in a 16” barrel. With 31.5 grains of varget it burns over 99% of powder and achieves 2500 fps with a 108 grain ELD-M. However, I have concerns about bullet...

    6 BR/Dasher vs 30 BR

    I am aware feeding could be an issue and wouldn’t trust just any smith with it. However, I have a lot of confidence in who I have discussed this project with being able to sort it out. I am really curious if anyone out there has insight into how complete powder burn will be with these shorter...

    6 BR/Dasher vs 30 BR

    Well, goal is a case for .473 bolt face with a smaller case capacity. That’s what led me to the BR form factor.

    6 BR/Dasher vs 30 BR

    So I have had a slow developing plan to build a lightweight, short barreled bolt action rifle for suppressed use at relatively short ranges. For most purposes, would be shots under 200 yards. In the beginning, the rifle in mind would be built off some form of mini-mauser such as the small...

    Is the 300 WSM Dying?

    The 300 WSM really hits the velocity sweet spot for the 208 gr ELD-M. I have gotten outstanding performance on game with that bullet.

    Re-bore Questions: 30-06 to 338-06

    Now I know this question isn't really the point of this thread, but I have to ask the question that keeps popping up in my head every time I think this project over. Is the 338-06 worth reboring a perfectly good 30-06? For me it would be on a rifle used walking about primarily inside 150 yards...

    Re-bore Questions: 30-06 to 338-06

    I just read through this thread with a lot of interest. I am considering a very similar project. I have a pre-64 in 30-06 that has been cut down to 20". Considering a JES rebore to 338-06. Would also like to change out the wooden stock for a lightweight synthetic of some type. Have also been...
