    What is going on with Nosler?

    I’ve used a bunch of 30 cal 180 grain Partitions and .224 77grain 2nds from the pro shop. No issues.

    Should I remove stock pressure pads?

    That is not encouraging. Especially, given the price of components to try and figure a load out.

    Any practical uses for antler?

    Pet owners are Crazy! My dog chews up old the sheds I find it I can’t imagine $52 for a chew toy.

    Should I remove stock pressure pads?

    I have an older Japanese made Weatherby Mark V. The barrel is the lightest, #1 contour. I have not fired the rifle yet or developed a load for it. I also recently acquired a B&C Medalist stock that has pressure pads molded into it that contact the barrel. Action fit is good, but the action...

    Lightweight scope for mountain rifle 500 yards max

    Forgot to mention…that SWFA has a really short eye relief. It may not work out well on a light gun that has much recoil.

    Lightweight scope for mountain rifle 500 yards max

    I have a Leupold VX-2 CDS and windplex reticle. It is about 11 oz, has a decent size objective lense, and a repeatable turret for hold-over. A lot of features in a lightweight package.

    7 rem mag bullet choice for whitetail.

    I have had great luck with the 160 grain hollow point Sierra Gameking. The hollow point boat tail Gamekings are tougher than their soft-point counterparts.

    Nice! Shooting that thing offhand regularly must be build some ripped forearm muscles.

    What's your elk rifle?

    Nothing fancy...Remington 700 re-barelled to 300 Weatherby mag in a Bell & Carlson medalist stock with a Leupold Vari-X III 6.5-20x scope.

    Rookie 300 Wby load development woes...

    Newby here posting with a first post. I primarily reloaded for revolvers throughout the year but the last few falls I find myself loading belted magnums with varying degrees of success. I am seeking some load development help for my hunting rifle. It’s a Remington 700 that has been...
