    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I would say the mechanism is velocity and velocity alone. Work is done - true. Energy is transferred - true. But they don’t cause the bullet to expand. I believe the transfer is a byproduct of the bullet fragmenting due to the bullet hitting the animal and the bullet deforming or fragmenting...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I’ve never gotten a real good blood trail. Ever. I haven’t shot hundreds of animals, but I’ve shot a few dozen. I’m also color blind with red green and brown so that doesn’t help. lol

    6.5 Creedmoor/260 for Deer, Elk, and whatever else.....

    This may have been covered, but has anyone tested out the Sierra Tipped Game King, aka gamechanger? Im shooting the 130gr smk out of my rifle because I got a bunch of them pretty cheap. Im curious how that bullet does. I know it is a little tougher than the TMK but not a bonded bullet so it...

    7prc Neck Tension ADG Brass

    Those are 5 shot groups. If you think they are good enough, would you say just pick the best and go with it? I’m hunting with this guy and 600 yards is my max range.

    7prc Neck Tension ADG Brass

    The only thing I worry about N560 is temperature sensitivity. Maybe it’s not that bad tho.

    7prc Neck Tension ADG Brass

    7prc Neck Tension ADG Brass

    Yes. Here is some data: H1000, CCI mag primer, 175gr eldx, 7prc ALG brass, 5 shots fired at each grain weight Really, I dont think this is bad at all. But the factory Federal shot better in all areas. The best shot group was 66.9gr, but all I think were under an inch. 65.8gr - 2797.8 avg...

    Load Dev Made Easy

    I didn’t see anything on extreme spread or standard deviations. Do you not worry much about that, and focus on groups at distance?

    7prc Neck Tension ADG Brass

    Hello All, I have a 7prc that currently shoots Federal 175gr Eldx ammo very well. All of my handloads have shot good with it, but I like tinkering and want to find something great. I reloaded some of the factory Federal cases but start getting loose primer pockets after just a couple firings...

    Scope Recommendation - Practice Focused

    Hey all. I purchased two Maven RS1.2 scopes in mils after everyone has given glowing reviews of it. One sits on my hunting rifle which is a 7prc and the other one is new in the package. I did a little swapping with a guy and got a Tikka Veil Woodland in 6.5cm that i put in a KRG Bravo chassis...
