    40+ years ago I started big game hunting with a Winchester 70 in 30-06 guessing total hunting weight was 10lbs. Some might say good weight. Let’s you shoot better. bla bla bla. Fast forward those 40 years and my rifle is under 6lbs and pack weight is 7 ish and it hits steel at 1,200y if I do...

    300 saum

    I have been shooting a 180gr bullet in my 300 saum, but have been thinking of going heavier. Has anyone had luck running a 210 or 230 in this caliber?

    140gr Barnes TSX

    Been running these bullets for several years but took the range this weekend and the load had opened up to around 1 1/2 inch groups. Switched over to a 140 gr Barnes TTSX and the world returned to normal. The gun shot a 1/2 inch 2 touching a the third a breath away group. Which is its normal...
