Thanks. I'll keep that in mind here. Unfortunately, I don't have any 45 Colt brass to trade.

I'm in central MN and was looking for some 45-70 brass. I have a bag of 50 new 454 Casull brass for trade. Let me know what you have! Thanks

I'm not sure if this will help you, but maybe some one else will find it useful. It seems the Nosler AccuBond has been mentioned several time. I was able to use one very successfully a few years ago. I was shooting a 165gn. AccuBond out of a .308 Win with a 20" barrel (1 in 10" twist) at...

Hey all, I know that that this thread is quite old, but when I originally started it the Ruger Hawkeye Tactical was relatively new. I'm just curious to see if people have since purchased one and have reloaded for it. In the last few years I have been just shooting a bunch of 150gn. Federal...

Nice! I'm still burning up a bunch of factory ammo that I had laying around, so I haven't tried loading for it yet. Did you ever try using H335 in your attempts? I know that they have it listed in the sierra reloading manual. Thanks for replying. It gives me a decent stepping stone.

Hey has anyone done any reloading for the Ruger Hawkeye Tactical in .308? If so, what has worked well for you? Thanks!

I'm trying to develop a load for deer hunting with my AR-15, and I could use a little advice. I have some 60gn. Nosler Partition bullets and I was wondering if anyone out there has tried to do the same thing I'm attempting. The gun I have is a Colt Match Target Competition HBAR II. Its got a...

Thanks to all of you guys for your advice. It's really helped inform me of what some of my options are.

No, it is not for punching paper. I guesse I just want a rifle that I will be able to take a coyote at up to 1000yds. 1000yds. being the maximum shot I would take. I just thought that if it were able to shoot a 6in. group at 1000yds. it would be great at closer ranges. The reason that I...

I am thinking of buying (or building) a 308win. that is capable of shooting a 6in. group or better at 1000yds. My question is, is that possible, and if so do any of you guys own one, or know of a rifle that is capable doing this? I am kind of new to long range shooting, so this is the first...

Thanks for the advice. I'll try it and see how it goes. Landon

I have a Colt AR-15 Match Target Competition HBAR II, and I was wondering if anyone else had one and what weight bullet and powder works best in their rifle. thanks, Landon
