    Painless load development (mine)

    I would love for you to explain this more thoroughly. Perhaps even in a new thread. I think this information could save so much time and stress trying to ring out every .01 MOA out of a gun/ load. Please make us all feel better for not have a 1/4 MOA gun/load and save us thousands on guns and...

    Your deer rifle--why'd you choose .243 or 6.5 CM?

    To go along with this thread, what would be the choice between 6cm and a 8” twist .243? The rifle will be cut to 16.5” for a suppressor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    125gr Nosler BT .308 deer bullet

    Thank you. I’ve often wondered why they don’t get any more attention than they do around here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    125gr Nosler BT .308 deer bullet

    Im ok with everything im hearing. I hunt a very large cutover so the closer the animal is to the shot site the better. I will sacrifice a lost shoulder over a lost deer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    125gr Nosler BT .308 deer bullet

    I have developed a great shooting load for my 16” suppressed 308 traveling 2790fps with 125gr Nosler Ballistic Tips. Anyone have any experience with this bullet’s on game performance. This gun is set up for east coast whitetails inside of 400 yards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Iron Will S100 vs S125

    Thank you and I understand the weight difference and arrow build factors. I am just looking at the design differences between the blade geometry and ferrule materials. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Iron Will S100 vs S125

    Has anyone seen a performance difference in the solid 100 vs the solid 125? I know the blade design is a little stubbier on the 100 and the ferrule is titanium instead of hardened steel. Do those represent such in terminal performance? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No love for the .243?

    Serious question, what do you think accounts for the no blood track jobs? The reason I ask is because I’ve been on a few myself that my son has shot over the past couple of years. Shooting federal power shock 100gr and hornady SST 95 gr. Not bad shots and all deer recovered within 100 yards but...

    Outdoorsman Tripod for shooting

    At my current ability I do not foresee any shots exceeding 600 yards. My only true long range opportunity for now come on west KS rifle deer hunts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help with a .308 load

    Thank you. I am using the data Hodgdon put out for TAC. All brass is once fired Hornady original fired in this gun and bumped .002. Bullets are not crimped and I have a consistent .008 neck tension using Hornady custom dies. I’m not chasing velocity per see but do want to find the optimal load...

    Outdoorsman Tripod for shooting

    I currently have a complete Outdoorsman tripod set up with a pan head and plates on all my optics. To say I’m investing in the system is an understatement. I have done some limited shooting with a Bogg saddle mount on the pan head and it seemed ok. Is there a preferred system for shooting off an...

    Help with a .308 load

    45gr gave me this group with these velocities. TAC 45gr 2766 2761 2802 2731 2744 2818 2791 2796 2793 2814 I fired one round at 45.5gr and had a heavy bolt lift. I haven’t shot it without the can because it will be used with the can. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help with a .308 load

    Wanted to give a follow up to this. I worked through some 150gr SST and TAC this week. As of today I was able to get a 10 shot group at slightly less than 1.5” with 44.5gr. I’m using a Caldwell chrono so not sure how accurate the readings are. There was a lot more variation than I expected...

    Which digital scale is accurate?

    Wow! $722 dollars for a digital scale is a ton of money. I thought the auto chargers were expensive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help with a .308 load

    Thanks for all the input, this has been a good learning experience for me. I have no experience with mono bullets and to be honest I’ve been pretty influenced by Forms inputs on terminal bullet construction though I have no experience using match grade bullets for hunting. I do know a lot of...

    Help with a .308 load

    I have a chrono and it will be going with me next time. After the factory 168 eldm loads shot so poorly I figured it was the bullet weight. I shot the TMKs just to verify and they shoot roughly the same 1.75-2” group every other 168 load had. As for the TAC I shot one at 43 and it definitely had...
