Just curious what are these new hybrid bullets? Who's making them?

Well the round is out if a 7mm Dakota, I had to play with setting depths a bit. I don't have my book infront of me but I believe the bullets just "touching" the lands. I'm using a 26 inch brux barrel with 1 in 9 twist and a brake. Remington 700 action (blue printed). Bell and carlson stock with...

I just finished my 7mm dakota build and took it to montana for a elk and deer combo. The gun is 2 for 2, shot a 4 point muley at 260 yrds behing the shoulder, complete pass through, the deer took maybe five steps and fell over. My elk was shot at 460 yrds, Dialed the scope and went for a high...

Re: WTS-Remington 700 Sendero 300wm-on hold Is the gun still for sale?

Is the scope still available? Check your pm.

I have sent a pm.

I am having to make the same decision. I'v started a 7mm Dakota build. I plan on using it on deer and elk out to 850 yards max. I am split between a vx4 er/t 6.5x20x50 or a schmidt and bender 3x12x50. Would the quality of the schmidt and bender on 12 power be all that is needed or would a person...

Could you send me picture or two? How old is the scope?

I believe most of the public land areas over there are on a draw. Check out the huntin fool magazine

I'm looking at building a 7mm weatherby with a remington 700 action,match barrel (26"), aftermarket stock and some freebore taken out. I realize this will increase pressure. I'd like to try Berger 180's,but from what I hear the vld's like to be into the lands.Would this combo make to much...

send a couple this way [email protected] Thanks

Well i'll see what it does for a group at those ranges. Right now I'm shooting 85 grns of h4831 fed 215 match with a 180 grn nosler partition, factory oal. How does that bullet perform at that range or is there one that may work better? Thanks for your info.

I agree,and I have not grouped it at 6-800 yrds,but being stock with that 24" barrel is it capable of a 4-6 inch group at that kind of range? I will try it though.

I would be interested in seeing some pics. What kind of weight does it have.

I have a 300 wby mrk v (southgate) with a 24" barrel,topped with a leupold VXIII 4.5x14x50 LR. (I will add turrets later). I reload 180 gr nosler partitions and know the gun well and am confident out to 400 yrds. I am wanting a 400-800 yrd ++ gun for elk and mulies. What do i need to do to get...
