    Resurrection of the .308 & upping the game

    Started with a factory custom load that used Varget powder (I think 41.5 gr) and a Berger 168 Hunting hybrid with Lapua brass made by a company that was later subsumed by a larger company (might have been Applied Ballistics that bought them but dont quote me). HSM has a similar item available...

    GOOD TRIGGER WEIGHT FOR A HUNTING RIFLE?

    I replaced all my Remington 700 triggers with Timney triggers set at 3-3.5 lbs, which match my Tikka T3 and T3x factory trigger feel and weight. That way, all of them seem about the same and in my comfort zone.

    Why Doesn't Berger make a Bonded Bullet??

    I have 2 deer (.308), 2 elk and a moose (300WM) that succumbed to the Berger hybrid hunter experience. No problem. Meat intact but never found a bullet fragment.

    "Best Ballistic App for Android Devices"

    I find the Strelok Plus does a nice job, but I lost some data when I got a new android phone despite being sure to transfer my rifle data to a savable file on an SD card. Now it supports Dropbox, but I am having trouble backing it up to Google Drive. The program does update frequently, which...

    Which ballistic "APP" works the best for you

    StreloK Plus works well for me. I just wish they had it for a PC format so that I could resize, edit, and print my reticle files and compile them in a handy packet for field use.

    Elk Hunting last week

    Got this one in SW Wyoming with 185 gr Berger VLD classic hunter by ABM in 300 Win Mag with Rem 700 rifle 26" barrel, 14X scope at 371 yards single shot. It did exit the chest but the big bull went down right away. I had success with Bergers in a .308 on whitetail with my T3, so I kept with the...

    Would be awesome for my Sendero. Len, I DID cut out the front of the DE cheek rest...it only took a small amount to allow the bolt to be removed with the cheekpiece in the up position, and did not affect my cheek weld position one bit. Thanks for the advice!! You da man.

    weatherby vangaurd II

    I have two relatively new ones in traditional mag calibers (non-Roy). So far so good, but still in process of breaking in. I like the new synthetic stocks.I like the monte carlo shape. Others may not. The inserts feel secure, and the forend is a more modern look. One (a 300 WM) is in...

    Taking a look at new Sauer and Mauser Offerings ???

    Thanks again, Varberger757, for the cogent analysis. Yes, all reviews on this side of the pond skewer the inability to swap out the barrel on both of these. Their price point is less than their marker's fancier models, but significantly more costly than, say, a Tikka T3. After due...
