    Do groups open up or get tighter with fired brass?

    Couldn't agree more. Not sure why some have to complicate the issue. Use rifle specific brass, neck size only with Lee collet die, and repeat until the brass won't chamber in your rifle. At that point you may need to trim, bump, etc. Makes super consistent, accurate ammo.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    You're like everyone else on the planet.....smaller, lighter recoiling cartridges are easier to shoot more accurately than bigger harder kicking ones. I'm a recovered magnumitis shooter as well.

    If you read the article, that's not his normal carry pistol. "Larry and his wife were fishing with me, and because we were going to a small stream I had fished before, which had numerous large male brown bears, I decided to take my Smith & Wesson 3953 DAO 9mm, rather than the S&W 629 .44...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Speaking of noise.......I'll just take the advice of a hunter who knows 1000 times more about it than anybody here does, and has the experience to back it up. Unless I have the same amount of experience or more, then I'll defer to a real expert on this subject, and that would be Phil...

    Why not contact Phil? Afraid to learn the truth of the matter? You know, random internet experts who can hardly spell grizzly/brown bear, much less ever seen or hunted one, but like to pretend they know what they have no clue about. They're not hard to find.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Most of those are far from my idea of good hunting bullet performance, but then again I don't like exploding bullets except for hogs, yotes, or other vermin. This is more like it......

    The day I need a $3-$4k scope to kill something is the day I quit hunting.
