    .270 For Moose?

    With the right bullet Partition or Grand Slam) and short placement/distance, it'll work. Having taken many Alaska Moose, they are big, especially a mature bull. I've seen them take several 338 win mag rounds to the boiler room before going down. If that is all you have, is what you feel the most...

    favorite deer caliber

    270 hands down. My grandfather, dad and brothers all used 270's for many, many years and killed more deer with them, along with more than a few elk. I've also taken several caribou and black bears with mine, so was my primary for nearly 30 years.

    Scope suggestions for a european hunting custom build

    You didn't say if you'll be doing driven hunts as that would make a difference in your scope selection. If you are, you'll want something in the 2.5 on the lower end or get something you can put an aimpoint on in addition to swapping out for a different scope for the longer shots. I hunted in...

    7prc factory ammo

    Could be the primer or maybe the powder. If they change lots or type in their factory ammo. I've seen in my reloads a change like that from one lot to another of the same powder.

    Nightforce vs Leupold

    LOL! Yes, I understand what you are getting at: I'd put my Leupold, Zeiss.... against any scope out there as well. Just pointing out that there are a lot of good scopes out there, and since the post was about NF or Leupold, either is a good choice so pick what fits your budget and your...

    Switch barrel backpack rifle build

    308. I have a 308 with a 20" barrel. Its light, swings fast and you the 30 cal bullet selection is one of the best of all the calibers out there. I've taken a lot of game with the 308. It also will feed fine out of the standard length and there isn't any need to change bolt face for it.

    Discussion about bullets, tumbling and expanding

    I've never had a hunting bullet tumble but had them blow up on impact. I'm a meat hunter so I am always looking at bullets that don't ruin a bunch of meat by spewing fragments of bullet all over inside, and/or puncture the stomach or intestines: seen that way too often. I am careful about my...

    Storing With Suppressor On vs Off

    Like coyote tracker said: I take mine off every time as well because I use it on different rifles. They all wear the appropriate quick-change brake/mount for the suppressor I use and never have any POI issues.
