    22 Hornet most explosive starling bullet

    For over 25 years, I have shot most every varmint bullet available, and some no longer available. Of all the manufacturer's bullets, the Barnes, performed the least explosive! Vmax and Nosler and Burger, WAY out perform in their varmint bullets over Barnes. You will just have to self-educate...

    Anyone with Tikka Varmint 223

    I have three 223 T3's. One stayed a 223, the others converted to 222 and 221Fireball. All with the 1/8 twist. I shoot 40 grain V-Maxes and Nosler BTs...mostly the Noslers...I really like the 40 BT Noslers with 20.5 grains of 1680 or CFE BLK! At 3600 FPS and increased RPMs from the 1/8 twist, the...

    What works for light bullets in 8 twist .224?

    I would try the Nosler Varmageddon HPs...You have quite a combination of powder and RPMs that play havoc with bullets. The Noslers have worked best for me, tho. Hard to believe your 219DW & 6PPC can't reach further than 300 yards effectively, tho...at least in prairie dingo shooting. I love the...

    6ppc or 6mm BR?

    The 6mmAR (6.5 Grendel necked to 6mm) would be perfect with your set up. Check it out! Lichen Slayer

    What bullet for a 243?

    6mm is my favorite caliber-bullet selection is fantastic! But, if Crows were what I was sighting in on, mainly, it would be hard to justify another bullet than the Nosler 55 grain BTs. These are my favorite bullet in several rifles I use for prairie dingo/coyote shooting. From 6mm-Hornet to 6...

    New Varmint Build

    Hey Blue, How about a 22 WSSM! They were available in left-hand from both Winchester and Browning, and they can be found CHEAP on auction houses! I have had several and they are great firearms and very accurate...I had a preference for the 243 WSSM, not quite the heat on the barrel as the 22. If...

    Tikka T3 .223 or CZ 527 .223!!!

    S.G. On these two, the T3 and the CZ 527....they are both quality arms and very accurate. For me, I own and shoot both, and how you plan to put them to use, will determine satisfaction with each. If you plan to shoot single-shot (my favorite-since I save brass), the CZ with a James Calhoon...
