Re: Yote hunter....... I guess I should have been more clear. Those numbers are not group size, but rather the amount of DROP for the different bullets. I am interested in bullet performance, then I will get them to shoot tiny little groups. thanks for the info.

I have a good load with 70 sierra hpbt, which does do a good job preserving hides, but is still a little too much drop at 300 and 400 yards. I was running the numbers on flat shooting bullets in .243, at appropriate velocities at my shooting conditions the top 5 flattest at 400 yards were as...

Thanks for the help guys. I know I am asking a lot from a bullet. I like the accuracy I get from my sierra 70 gr hpbt load, but explosive on close dogs. I like the bullet performance of 95 gr bt, but I have missed a few dogs from the drop of the bullet, I guess my lack of ability to judge the...

here is my deliemma. I am using the 95 gr BT in .243 Win, great bullet performance on 'yotes, but I am longing for something faster and flatter shooting, BUT I also want to save pelts. Which leaves out the smokin' 55 grain BT. What is the perfect coyote bullet to hit those dogs at 400 yards...

Re: 223 Ground Hog \" How Far \" I am shooting a .223 with 52 grain sierra hpbt at 3500 fps. Last week i shot a yellow-bellied marmot (ground hogs western cousin) at 573 yards with a single body shot. The bullets are quite explosive, but really get the job done. So the caliber will work...

The intent of the logbook is to allow shooters the opportunity to record EVERY shot they fire, as well as the conditions for EVERY shot fired. All this information would be in one easy to carry, easy to use format. I have tested the prototypes and find it very helpful. I use to write...

So keeping records of our shots is very important. I was wondering what everyone out there is using to keep track of all the shots being fired, and the weather, the wind conditions, elevation MOA, etc. Do you have a note book or a logbook? The reason I ask is I am in the process of...

Hey goodgrouper, I have to say congrats again on the great elk shot. Keep up the good work and keep fighting for what you know is right. Hopfully Nosler will keep in touch with you. I got my Ken Ferrel bases on the 300 RUM and am sighted in. We need to go shooting out West sometime. You know...

Tommy, Thanks for the info. I will work the loads up slowly to try and get the desired velocity. Are they really hot at 3100 fps? I would like to stay around that velocity. Has anyone taken an elk with Accubonds (180-220 grain bullet)? if so how well did they work? especally compared to...

I am new to the web site and this is my first post. I have to say this is a great web site. I am getting started in long range shooting/hunting. I have done a lot of hunting with shots in the 300-400 yard range, but I would like to extend that range. I have a Remington M700 BDL in .300 RUM...
