    Hammer Hunters vs Shock Hammers

    Hello I’m looking to try out the Hammer bullets for our Tikkas. We have a 7mm/08 and 300 WM. Ideally, I’m hoping for more leas-free “bang flops” but also want the deep penetration. We hunt blacktail deer, black bears, and goats all in brown bear country. Not interested in taking shots beyond...

    181 Shock Hammer & H1000

    Anyone have a pet recipe for their 300 WM, using the 181 Shock Hammers, H1000, and Gunwerks brass? I haven’t tried the Hammer bullets but the sound great! I talked to Steve and he recommended using IMR 4831. I thought I had a little, but I don’t. BUT I do have a lot of H1000. Can I assume I...

    How many firings?

    Hi all I was curious how many firing you typically get on your belted magnum brass? I’m at 6 on my 300 WM Gunwerks brass. So far no neck splits or loose primer pockets. I do have the slightest little ring near the belt (pic below) at first I thought this maybe early case head separation. But at...

    Bullet for bison

    My Tikka 300 WM shoots my 200gr ELD-X and 180gr GMX handloads equally well. I’m going in a bison hunt and expect shots less than 200 yrds. Which bullet would be your choice for bison? The heavier ELD-X or the deep penetrating GMX?

    Best loads NOT near max charge odd?

    Hello I recently started working up a load for a Tikka compact T3X 7mm/08 using 120 TTSX, Varget, and WLR. Interestingly I am finding my best groups around 42 grns of Varget. The Barnes book calls the low end 39.5 and max 43.9 of Varget. In developing loads for other rifles/calibers, if usually...

    New Powder scale

    Hi all I’ve been hand loading for about a year now. I love it. I’ve started w the hornady LnL kit. It’s been great starter set up. But in my opinion the powder scale is the weak link. Before I go chasing better accuracy other ways, I feel like I should upgrade scales. What’s a good reasonable...

    Rifle glare

    How OCD do you guys get about hiding glare during your Dall sheep hunts? I alway cover my watch, paint my poles, and avoid sunglasses etc on mountain hunts.

    Leuko tape alternative

    Obviously, ideally your boots fit so perfect that you never get blisters or need heel protection. Realistically, at least for me, taping my heels is occasionally necessary. No matter the boot or break in. Leuko tape used to work perfect! Unfortunately, the last 2 times I’ve had to tape, it’s...
