Is 22” 280 Remington a Handicap?
I cut my 24" 280 to 22" when i started shooting suppressed. Lost maybe 40 fps. I run 160 partitions with a stiff load of 7828ssc and a mag primer, extremely accurate and velocity is up there with the ackley dudes. I have 7mm-08s too and really like both, as stated above I think they have a... -

Stockys VG composite for tikka
Any reviews from folks that are actually running these? For folks that have them, do you consider it a useful upgrade or just money spent replacing tikka stuff that worked out fine to begin with? -
Rangefinding Binos vs Rangefinder
Since you already have them, I'd say run the fury for a season or two and see what you think. I always struggled with switching from binos to the tiny aperture on range finders, pain in the ass for me. Range finding binos solved a problem, one of the few hunting gadgets I've ever bought that... -
Where are the Reloder powders?
I'd like to have another pound or two of 4000mr. I might even go so far as to trade some rl26 for it if anyone in NM is watching this -

Nosler Partition vs nosler accubond
both of those bullets are awesome for both of the species you mentioned. actually, there isn't anything in north america that I wouldn't use a partion or accubond on. both expand fast enough to be destructive on lighter critters such as coues deer and pronghorn, both give all the penetration... -

Tikka Super Lite 7mm-08
Pharmseller knows his 7-08's. I run a tikka compact (20") with thunderbeast ultra 7. Sta ball 6.5 has been fantastic with 150 gr ballistic tips and partitions. -
Where are the Nosler bullets?
SPS had 160 gr 7mm accubonds a couple weeks ago, brother and I scored a stash. Saw 160 partitions at sportsmans today. -

7mm-08 all around hunting load
150 ballistic tip, burn some staball 6.5 under it. last year, antelope at 420, cow elk at 50 feet, perfect both times. My rifle is a 20" tikka with a can, velocity is about 2830 with a bunch of powder and a mag primer. Its hot but everything is still tight on third loading of PPU brass. -
School Me On Tikka
Guys need to spend money on trivial crap. Someone somewhere suggests in a post that plastic trigger guards and bolt shrouds could conceivably be a liability and everyone is buying titanium replacements, or the twist rate is completely retarded if you want to shoot really long target bullets...
