I actually started looking at the 338s, but got an x bolt max in 300 win mag 1:8 twist that I I’m gonna try loading with 212 lrx bore riders. Will have to single feed because of overall length but the number are impressive if it will group with those.
Brand new to reloading, I have a 1:8 twist browning x bolt max 300 win mag and want to try the 212 lrx bore rider which Barnes load data has at 3.975 COAL. I know I will have to single feed these because magazine length. Ultimate reloader on YouTube said the max for the coax press was 3.97. I’m...
Shot my Kimber hunter pro 6.5 creed for the first time today. Tried without a muzzle break and then with the radial brake that came with it. Couldn’t really notice a difference in recoil. I know the ti pro brakes are some of the best at reducing recoil and would like to try one out. Probably a 3...
Warne Two piece bases or the pic rail? Kinda disappointed the screws for my warne rail came messed up. Just ordered a Talley rail that should be here Monday and will probably just return the warne.
Well I ordered the warne and the screws they shipped with it are all messed up. Burrs and damaged thread. Just sent them an email to see if they can get me new screws.
Anyone have a recommendation for a rail for a Kimber 84m. Looks like Nightforce discontinued theirs. I’m finding egw, leupold, tally, warne mountain tech. Will be mounting a NXS 2.5-10x42. Already ordered nightforce a118 low rings.
That screenshot was from Barnes website. That’s what they have under their factory load. But you’re right if you just go to the 190 lrx bullet it’s .541.
I want to lean for the 6.5 PRC because it seems like it has been adopted and ammo is pretty available now and it’s a sexy newer cartridge, but based on these numbers from Barnes the ole .270 is faster and has more energy.
If the brake helps that much it sounds like that’d be the direction I’d go. Only concern is the factory Barnes lrx is 1999 at 600 yards. I’ve read some people recommend staying above 2200 for optimum performance or maybe 2000 at the minimum.
If you were going to shoot mono bullets on elk what cartridge would you pick? I’ve been looking at Barnes lrx in 6.5 prc or .270win. Another optioning I’ve been considering is getting a 6 creed for deer and down and a 7 or 300 win mag or another big caliber for the elk. I’ve killed two elk and a...
I’m usually solo or with one other person, rarely 3 people total and very very rarely maybe 4. Looking hard at the Davis antelope package 12x15. Or would you spend the extra $200 or so to get a 14x15. Would I be better saving that $200 to put toward a cook shack down the road or get the vinyl...
I admitted I disagree with the closure. And my main gripe is the wording “gathering”=“locating”. How are you gonna say only 5% of me cares. I posted this topic to have a conversation about this issue. I wanted peoples thoughts before interjecting mine and then I did and some how that’s me...
I think shed hunting is a little different than hunting an actual animal. Are you going to start advocating we have to buy a shed hunting license and only be able to pick up 1 a year?
Are complaining and trying to understand mutually exclusive? And no I don’t complain about cougar hunters and hikers and bikers and skiers because I believe people should be able to do those things. I would never advocate closing those. I’m more libertarian on a lot of these issues. I never...
Why does the dwr allow cougar hunting and turkey hunting before may 1st? They have authority to close that and if they cared about the animals wouldn’t they postpone those seasons also? I’m sorry if I’m straw manning anything. Can you put your self in a shed hunters shoes and see how they feel?
