    Berger 6mm 105 Hybrid for coyotes

    Yeah I always seem to be trying to find the best balance between a caliber and bullet that will blow up inside coyote (not exit) and one that will buck the wind and shoot well out past 400-600yds. In my experience the smaller polymer tipped bullets really hit hard so long as they impact...

    Berger 6mm 105 Hybrid for coyotes

    I shoot both the Berger 95gr Hunting VLD and the 105 Hunting VLD out of a 1:8 twist 6XC. Both are way overkill for most of the TX coyotes around here. The 6mm Hunting VLDs fly so good I have not tried the Hybrids. Both the 95s & 105s really hammer a 40lb coyote and are a bit overkill (IMO)...

    Help w/Barrel twist

    I am in the process of building a custom rifle in .243win I have all necessary components except for barrel. This rifle is going to be a dedicated Predator hunting rig and as such I plan on using bullets in the 70-90gr range. Most of the Barrel twist charts call for a 1:10 to 1:12 twist for...

    New to AI Reloading...any suggestions

    Well a couple of barrels on my favorite coyote guns are in need of replacing and I have decided to have both re barreled & re chambered in AI versions (.223AI & .243AI). I will likely toss out all my old brass and start fresh with some new brass for each. I plan on fire forming, then trimming...

    Scope rings and bases

    I was under the impressing that if I utilized a one peice base (20moa or standard Leupy)that it likely would need to be bedded to the top of the reciever. Otherwise when I tightened the base down it would put unwanted torque on the reciever. Most of my hunting rigs have the two piece Leupy...

    OK some details. I live in the Dallas Ft Worth area and generally have to drive 2hrs to hunt our ranch which is located on the Brazos River in Western Young County. Lots of critters and an occasional rare 150-160 class buck. I Deer hunt the two weeks of rut fairly hard but most time and...

    Stuck case thanks to Hornady one shot!

    Have used the RCBS lube forever with no stuck cases. But was considering changing over to the spray or wax due to all the hoopla. Why do I feel like I need to fix something that is not broken?? Thanks for the "heads up" I believe I will just stick to my tried and true slippery goo!
