Cole Thanks for taking the time to go through all of this; lots of new stuff to remember but that's all good. We will run these tests and go from there. Good shooting to you. Here is Bryan Litz's post. Offline Bryan Litz Site $$ Sponsor Trade Count: (0) Active Member ***** Posts...

Hi longrangehunterII Regarding the elevation, after corresponding with a few members here and on other forums, we are slowly figuring out a couple of ways to check things out a better way. Next time at the range, we will check the tracking on both of our scopes and we will re-check the speed of...

Hi Alaska I tried RL33 and Ramshot Magnum as well, they are both good powders and will get the job well done; I just went with H1000. Love the way Ramshot measures in my chargemaster. I saw your post with the 91 gr of H1000 and Berger 300; OTM or Match Grade Elite? How far were you shooting...

Thank you Sir, yes we do have some homework ahead of us ;)

Hi Orch I am no expert, so learning as it goes and you mention several aspects we didn't think of lightbulb. The neck tension difference came to my mind, as I made two different kind of reloads. One was made using my Redding FL serie "S" with a bushing giving a .362 at the neck. It should be...

Another follow up; Today 3/17/15, 0650 h, perfect day, NV desert, barely any wind, same loads, same rifle (see 1st post). I used my buddy's dope chart and it got me **** close right away. 1460 yards, loads are still good; 3 shots to be on target, then several impacts. 1760 yards, loads are...

I did try several but at 100 yards; distances sometimes makes a big difference but so far, so good. Thanks. Follow up on load Went to range today, 1000 yards ; cool and sunny, no wind, 50% humidity. Loads were still accurate at 1000 (less than MOA); will shoot around 1300 next time.

Hi, Working on load development on TRG42/338 lapua mag with H1000 (89 gr), Berger OTM 300. As of now, good results up to 400 yards but didn't stretch it yet; MV is 2680 fps, very little SD. On the subject, I know a little, there is a lot more I do not know. I keep on hearing bullets (300...

You are a wise man and this is exactly what I did :) Talked to a Game Warden in Reno and got answers; yes 175 SMK are legal for hunting in NV. I had another question for him, regarding magazine max capacity for big game, as I heard 5 shots were max. Warden's answer: no restriction on magazine...

It is all in the title. From a legal standpoint, are the 175 SMK BTHP considered as FMJ, which makes them illegal to hunt with in NV?

Anyone using this bullet in their Mosin?

Hi First time deer hunting, most likely will take a 43' Tula Mosin-Nagant sniper to this hunt and I have a question. Did anyone used the "Barnes Triple-Shock X Bullets 303 Caliber (311 Diameter) 150 Grain Hollow Point Flat Base Lead-Free" in their Mosin, in hunting, or not, situation? If...

Welcome to LRH :)

That's good info too, will look into this. Thanks

Mathews Thanks, I tried, will do it again but first will check out reloads fps, I think it is mild, around 2400; didn't have a chronograph when i first made these loads. Probably can give it a boost of another 300 fps, it may help some:)
