    Sierra 6.5 mm145 gr TGK

    I have some for my 6.5 PRC but haven't found time to do some loads and test them. I am a Gamechanger fan. I shoot the 130 grainers in my 6.5x55. They are 1/2 MOA accurate and have scored whitetail kills from 35 yds to 420. Nothing has gone more than 25 yds from impact. All of them have given 2...

    How long have you been at your current job?

    34 years... I had 3 jobs in my teens- construction worker, appliance installer, and farm worker. I learned that management has more to do with the quality of work than the work itself. Also, it took 3 tries to get very tired of starting something new. Every job has its perks, every job has...

    Close-Range Woods Scope

    The Tract Response is a 2.5-10 that offers a BDC reticle coming in at about 18 oz. You can use their app to correlate ammo or hand loads to project the holdovers. Don’t know if that checks enough boxes for you?

    Where to buy rifles online...

    I’ve had mixed results with Guns.com…. I bought a Tikka Hunter stainless that was an absolute steal. A Ruger M77 that was priced ok but had a refinished stock… Would have been nice if they’d disclosed that in the ad. And a stainless, laminate Ruger that was about 85% but advertised as mint. In...

    New hunting scope?

    For $1300, I’d consider a Leupold vx-5HD with a Boone and Crockett reticle. I got mine for about 65% of that and have found it to be very satisfactory.

    Most expensive thing you lost while hunting

    This wasn’t hunting… But I left my Magnetospeed lay on the shooting bench one day… I wasnt’ even gone 15 minutes when I discovered it was missing.. But till I got back, the magneetospeed and the only other person that had been there was gone.

    Favorite .270 Winchester Bullet Type/Weight

    Every gun is different. Between my boys and I, we have 5 270s. Everyone has their “best load”. However, the bullet that does good in all of them is the Sierra Gameking 140… Hornady 130 grain Interlock is another consistently good option.

    Sierra 6.5 mm145 gr TGK

    I’ve used the 130 gr TGK in my 6.5x55 for the last 3 years.. It is superbly accurate (1/2MOA) and deadly. I’ve taken 7 deer now between 4-500 yds. Nothing has gone more than about 10 yards after kill. I’ve just picked up some 140s for my 6.5 PRC but i haven’t got the time to load and test yet.

    Let’s discuss the 6.5x55 SE

    My Tikka settled in @ 2825 with 130 gr Sierra gamechangers and 47.8 Reloader 23. Most 5 shot strings are under 10 FPS on the ES. Took 3 deer between 350-425 yards last year.

    Mountain rifle scope suggestions

    Take a look at Tract optics.. Most are made in Japan.. I think the low-end Response and the rimfire are Philippines. But I''m very happy with the 3 that I have.
