Is this new brass?

I'll take the 300 WSM brass

do you think seeing 30 cal holes on targets out to 500 yards would be a problem?

Has anyone used a Kifaru Gun Bearer on an Eberlestock J34? If you have does it have to be the universal model?

my worst group of three was 1.5" my best .75" I know I should have quit sooner as I was getting tired and frustrated. I've hunted a long time and have never needed to shoot over 200 yards, at deer and moose. My elk hunting buds are telling me I need to be ready to shoot 600 or more so I...

Thanks for the quick replies! Just so I can fully get this through my simple mind. If according to ballistic tables/calculators my load should be 2" high at 200 yards I would multiply 2" times 2 (or 1" for every 100 yards of distance) then add the two for actual hight adjustment?

I'm stumped and can't seem to find an answer in any of the forums. I'm shooting a Ruger 77 300 Win Mag built in 1985 1:10 twist Berger 210 VLD hunting 71.1 gn R-22 OAL 3.35 chrono fps 2800 to 2830 elevation 800 ft wind speed west 11 mph shooting direction north I sighted in 3" high at 100...

Well unfortunately I didn't get to shoot as much as I hoped last weekend as the work projects seemed to take waaaaay more time than anticipated. I did get to play with 3 out of the 6 loads I brought up. I found my gun favored 70gn of R-22 seated at 3.35. At 100 yards all three holes were...

Thanks mntwrunner thats encouraging!! Just curious what type and power scope are you guys using?

Thanks again for the information Jim! I seated a round at 3.40 and it seemed to feed just fine so I'll start there. I'll be heading to my property in Wisconsin Thurs where I can practice out to 600 yards. Think I'll load up 50 rounds at various charges and see what works best. As for powder I...

Thanks Jim! I read the article by Eric Stecker, that was the clincher for me after reading so many positive post about the Bergers to give them a try. It seems like most people get the most out of these bullets by being as close to the lands as possible. So I guess my question is, if you can't...

I'll be heading to Montana for an elk hunt this Nov. I've read so many post on the 210 gn Berger's I decided to give them a try. From what I've read everyone seats them as long as possible to start then tweaks their loads from there. I'm shooting a Ruger M77 300 WM with 24" barrel 1-10 twist...
