    Need help seeing if I can use what I already have. (44mag load)

    I found a box of 500 hard cast 200gr rnfp 44 mag bullets on clearance for 20 bucks and couldn't pass them up. They have a gas check and we're tumble lubed at factory. I usually load 240gr jacketed with h110 so I have like 3.5 lbs of the h110. Is there any way to marry the h110 with the 200gr...

    Need help with hunting load

    I want to start by saying accuracy is important to me. I understand that I can have a 2 MOA rifle, and pretty much center cross hairs and pull the trigger and get a dead deer within reasonable distances. I find chasing accuracy to be fun and rewarding. Rifle is a 308 win, 24" criterion barrel...

    28 nosler recoil experience

    I'm in the market for a new rifle in a cartridge that will be effective for elk at 500 yards or so. My requirement is greater than 1500ft lbs and 1800 fps at 500 yards. I narrowed it down to a browning x bolt pro in 28 nosler, 7mm rem mag or 300 win mag. Finally I decided on 7mm rem mag due to...

    Sorry if this is a repost. i have searched and not found anything that has helped me. Last year was my first year hunting. I hunted with a Rem 700 in 308. I like the 308 round, but I really dislike the Remington 700. I got one of the rust barreled ones. It is a picky SOB that wont shoot any...

    sell the 308 and buy a 300 WM?

    This is my first year hunting. After doing some research, I chose to buy a 308. My reasoning was mainly recoil related. Because I didnt have experience shooting heavy recoil rifles, I wanted something that wouldnt make me develop a flinch response. I think it was the right decision for me at the...

    Utah first year hunter

    Hello All. Im a new hunter at 33 y/o. Not sure what made me decide to get into hunting at this age; It previously just wasnt something I was particularly interested in. I have loved going with my family, but have always said pulling the trigger wasnt for me. Guess that changed. I have a...
