This year - cow Elk @ 75yards. 80# Bowtech Guardian. Standing broadside shot. Rage broadhead - cut one rib and pierced half-way through the heart. Cow went about 40 yards.

Hmmmm, well, I'm not certain there would be any HUGE differences that you will notice.... You'll obviously lose some speed with the 100gr'ers although you will increase your distance capability. One thing I noticed with Nosler Ballistic Tips is that they seemed to be a bit more uniform and...

What's your rifle and current load?

Yea - great question! I live in Canada and was ordering them from a distributor in Alaska. For me, I was looking at a good 7-8 weeks, depending on when the distributor would put a new order in. Keep in mind though that 2 of those weeks was getting the bullets from the US into Canada...

Well, I am actually in the process of load-development with the GSC bullets, hence my question. It's always handy to compare notes with someone else! I'll also be using the GSC 100gr HV's for coyotes. What's bullets are you using for the Lazzeroni and what sort of MV does that machine...

Any .257WBY shooters on this forum have any experience with the GSC Custom bullets? Sharing experience is always educational but the .257WBY/GSC combination seems to be a rare one!! Rod.

While watching a David Tubb video recently, he stated that one of the reasons a 6-284 is an accurate round is because it is not a "belted case". Because David didn't, can someone here possibly explain how the belt on a magnum case causes decreased accuracy?

I saw one of the "Limbsaver Rifle Barrel De-resonaters" at a shooting supply store the other day and although I was intruiged, I thought I'd check of the forum here first to see if anyone has any experience with one of these. It looks like a small rubber dougnut - and talk about expensive...

Wow... Let's all chip together and buy Karoi a 300 Win. Mag! It might make his retirement years a bit easier! What an amazing video and what amazing people! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much guys! I really appreciate your advice! Upon a closer look at the hex-bolt and overall bolt assembly, I can see no way how a hot load could loosen the hex-bolt! Wheeww!:)

Action: Savage 112 Caliber: 257WBY. (Not original factory caliber) I was out testing some loads today, working up some new combinations, and going up in powder incriments, obviously got a little too hot and pierced a primer. (This is the first time this has happened to me, I'm not one to...

...what the term "bullet seating into the lands" means? I've been reloading long enough to understand the basics, however, I've always wondered what constitutes "into the lands/rifling". With a particular bullet that I am currently experimenting, I've been advised to "seat into the...

Yesterday.... Killed a 2 litre milk container Shooting a Bowtech '08 Guardian set at 80# with a 400gr arrow. Spott-Hog sight (with a few extra pins) Laser ranged at 140 yards - one shot. A bit of luck - likely; The Bowtech might do it 3/10 shots. Not something I would try on an animal!

What is bowhunting coming to?... ...it's probably coming to the same advanced technologies that rifle-shooting and all other sporting disciplines have come to. The seemingly new era of long distance rifle shooting for example has given rise to all sorts of new tools and mechanisms for rifles...

This may be like looking for a needle in a haystack, but does anyone here shoot a .257WBY using GS Custom bullets or know of someone who does? Looking to exchange some thoughts and info! Thanks!
