    .270 win which bullet for fallow and red

    myponga 130grain pill should be adequate for both Red & Fallow. The Nosler BT may be marginal on difficult shots such as quartering away but consequently I know blokes that have had problems with the ABs not opening up adequately on Fallow. Personally for those two I would go the BT. I would...

    7-08 & Reloder 17 -19

    Fellas, my first post on LRH but I am longtime member at Australian Hunting.net. Have a new 7mm08 on order and I am a long time user of the cartridge and have loaded for it with AR2208 and AR2209. I am wondering if anyone here has any experience or feedback on Reloder 17 or Reloder 19 in...
