    Accubond Fail?

    You are spot on. Call Nosler and they will replace the bullets.

    Remington 700 value?

    Beautiful rifle! I have a "Classic" in 257 Roberts. It shoots the 115 gr BT in the .3's. Yours would be a dandy woods rifle for WT deer JD338

    338 Rum to the Max !

    I'm set with Retumbo, about 20 lbs so that's what I use. If I were to try another power, I'd look at RL26. Im don't have that much and it's dedicated to my wife's 30 Nosler. JD338

    338 Rum to the Max !

    That's a good idea. RUM man, Where abouts are you located? I'm north of GR. I've got a 250 yard gong out back, 400 yard range at the club 2 miles away and my buddy has 800 yard gong at his farm. Shoot me a PM JD338

    338 Rum to the Max !

    Thank you fellas for the video. I considered the Edge when I had my factory 700 LSS 338 RUM rebarreled but decided to stay with the RUM since I was already tooled up for it. I'm getting 2820 with the 300 ABLR again with Retumbo. JD338

    VX-6 3-18x42mm Tactical Turret Upgrade

    I sent my VX-6 3-18x42mm back to Leupold earlier this week to have M1 style Tactical turrets installed. The cost for both elevation and windage dials is $165.00. This is what the VX-6 was missing. I had the Fire Dot WindPlex reticle installed last year and it worked like a dream out to 800...

    280 bullet choice for mule deer

    The 140 gr BT is all the bullet you need to kill the biggest mule deer from 10 yds to 600 yds. All you need to do is put it where it needs to go. I've taken 17 WT bucks with this bullet, all but one were DRT. One little buck went 2-3 jumps with a heart shot and was down. I also took a couple of...
