    Rifle for Granddaughter

    It’s sad that you have to say this, and have to use age is a justifier. Beautiful rifle! I’m sure she’ll love it, and the time you spend shooting/hunting with her, even more so!

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    No that we’ve discussed seating depth not being so important, SD doesn’t matter much either! https://shoot2hunt.com/ff-ep-7-mv-sd-for-lr-hunting/ Whe he starts stalking about the WEZ calculations, and 1st round hit percentages, that’s were I think these discussions about seating depth...

    Garmin chronograph

    Just got mine today. My old Caldwell was not convenient to set up, and is pretty much worthless now.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    I’ve seen more complaints of “blowing up” at closer ranges. If your friends can analyze the bullet performance, they must have recovered their game. Some people prefer a bullet to maintain weight, and make 2 holes in an animal. ELD-M and ELD-X are not designed to work that way.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    I guess we’re talking about 2 different points I’ve never intended to imply everything Hornady sells is gold. I’ll concede, you win.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    Ok. Not really relevant to the podcast or cartridges they’ve designed. I don’t think anyone has claimed every box of Hornady ammo in other manufacture designed chamberings is going to shoot well.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    Sure. Not every box of ammo is a home run. Especially in a cartridge that was designed in the 40s (300bee) that’s not really what I’m talking about I’m saying their precision hunter/match ammo is wildly popular. And so are the cartridges they’ve recently designed. People claiming new...

    was it precision hunter or precision match? If you took it apart, you’re a hand loader, no?

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    That's where we are with metallic cartridge design. There's not likely to be anything revolutionary. Long loaded, heavy for caliber, high BC factory loaded ammo, that performs well in almost any factory rifle, and available on the shelf darn near everywhere, is about as big of a jump in...

    Silicone socks for in safe storage

    I use the socks to protect some guns and make them easier to get in and out. I would not get silicon impregnated ones though. Silicone can be difficult to remove from wood and other surfaces. Like something you may want to put oil on. The silicon will act like a barrier to oils just as much as...

    Whitetail bullet

    I’d pick up som core lokt, or whatever else is cheap on the shelf.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    I didn't realize trying to innovate or improve in the factory ammo category was so polarizing, or akin to selling snake oil. I guess we should all be happy shooting 30-30s and 375 HH with flat base round nose bullets. PRS would be interesting at 50-200yds!

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    Horandys guys say 30 is a reasonable number, and I’ve heard others repeat that number. Either way I haven’t seen any pro-tuner guys shoot anywhere near that to prove they work. Exactly. Reloadingallday posted some 21 shot groups, and it was also inconclusive.

    What’s up with Hornady’s reloading podcast?

    Have seen a 20-30 shot per tuner setting test? I’ve seen only one, and it didn’t hold water. I’d love to see it done by a few other people. 2-3 shot tuner groups aren’t statistically sound.

    10mm handgun

    All 10mm/40 has a similar shape. Not just FMJ.
