Thanks

Just picked up a 6XC and didn’t see that caliber in any of the iPhone ballistic apps. Is there a different nomenclature for 6XC? Thanks.

Thanks all. TJAY, that's exactly the setup I'm going to give a try.

No sir, South Texas. But a good amount of "spray and pray" with them running and us chasing.

Great points, thanks! I'm thinking the AR platform so I can run an Eotech and non-bolt in case I need to blow through 20 rounds in a hurry.

I need a rifle for shooting Nilgai while both they and I are on the move. Being a large antelope, I need a caliber big enough to go all the way through and leave a blood trail. Since both parties are moving at times, the more rounds in the magazine the better. We lost a large cow this weekend...

God bless the government, they make it so simple. It's coming from a FFL (they built the rifle), to another FFL for work to be performed working up some custom loads, and then to my FFL to take ownership. I too always thought moving a firearm across state lines needed the involvement of a FFL...

Thanks Bounty and appreciate the patience with a newbie to the sport. I meant hand loads as opposed to commercial/off the shelf. I don't mind spending some extra $ to not reload as I don't have the time or patience for it. Thanks again.

I've searched for over an hour but have come up mostly short on ID'ing places to purchase high quality hand loads. Looks like Superior and Southwest are strong, though I'd like a few more options if anyone has an opinion. Shooting a Barrett 98B .338 Lapua and a Noveske AR10. While I'm...
