Do not use TSA locks in rifle cases!! The case should only be opened in your presence to avoid theft. Pelican cases are the way to go. I travel to CO yearly during elk season. In addition to my rifle I take my Glock 19 stripped in the box together. Ammo can be inside your case with your rifle...

I got tired of using ear plugs and ear muffs of all types. I started hunting suppressed 3 years ago and I couldn't be happier. If that's an option I would prefer to shoot suppressed over any ear protection.

Call Norma. In my view that is unacceptable for "new" brass. I've been shooting Norma 300 WM brass for 5 years and I've never encountered anything like that. Send it back.

It depends on the size of the game, wind conditions and your "comfort distance" at the target range. In the past 5 years I have shot Elk between 100 to 620 yards with 300 WM and 210grain Berger Bullets.. For the longer shots wind will be a major factor. Only under ideal factors would I push a...

Fantastic hunt! Congratulations!

Beautiful Bull! Congrats! You are blessed to have had this experience with your father! Enjoy the feast

I developed a load a few years ago for a 300WM 18" Barrel on a Desert tech SRS Covert. I tried numerous powders and I got the best results with H4350. I used Norma Brass, 185 grain Berger VLD Hunting Bullets with 69.8 Grains of H4350. 40 thou off the lands. Velocities of 2720. Hope this helps.

My buddy and I have killed 6 elk in past 3 years with devastating results using the 210 gr Berger VLD Hunting bullet. Longest went 20 yards. No tracking needed. Shots varied from 280 to 590 yards. Great Bullet in our experience.

I'm no expert but I had a similar issue with a Tikka T3. I believe that I was shooting way to quickly and the barrel was heating up too much. I then allowed the barrel to cool between subsequent shots and my groups greatly improved.

I use the MK Machining Magnetospeed Rail mount. I don't see a POI change

H1000 gets my vote. I shoot 210 Berger Hunting VLDs with with great success in my 300 WM. ZERO problems with stabilization. Good luck.

No Crimping here....Never had an issue
