I listed the 2 bulk loads hoping that I would get some positive feedback. I gave these a thought for several reasons with one being they might work out for hogs, 2, I reload and thought I could come out better with the brass on a reload rather than pay a lot for new brass. and 3rd, I thought it...

Looking to buy some bulk 6.5 Grendel ammo mainly for hogs. I am looking at various online buys. I have found a couple of interest. I know there is more but for now I am looking at Fed Premium Varmint/Predator 90 grain TNT Jacket HP (3000FPS on the box) and Nosler Match Grade 90 gr Flat Base...

I'm in Texas myself. I would suggest you go to one or more of the gun shows. There's one every weekend usually. Dallas, Ft Worth, Mesquite, etc. There us usually a couple of vendors that sell reloading supplies. I will have to post later the schedule info unless someone else does. I haven't...

What would a rebarrel cost? I know there would be some variables but just curious of it. Currently have an older Remington 700 in .270 that I'm sure has a wore out barrel so looking at some options.

I have a 4 deer sample. My 2 grandsons shooting my 7 08 over the last 3 years. One was shooting 139gr Hornady Interlock SPBT. 2 whitetails at about 100 yards in the rib cage both ran about 50 yards. I changed the load on another 7 08 to 130 gr Speer SPBT. Other grandson shot 2 deer about 109...

Thanks, I noticed yesterday CM used small and large. Was reading some threads on that this morning. I been reloading mainly Hornady,

I am looking to buy an AR in 6.5 Creedmoor and am looking at some brass to reload. I know the Lapua is best but is there a preference in Federal, Hornady, or Winchester? I am new to the 6.5 CM, along with the reloading for an AR. Thanks, Alan

If I understand, if you have 2 of the Zoleo units, one at camp and other in the field, these 2 units/people can text each other. Am I correct?

Nice setup. I am not knocking your choice of heads. I did use the Bear heads for years. Never was that fond of the Hill head. I still have a bunch of the Bear heads. I tried a few different razor heads, then used the Zwicky , and now use the Grizzly. I've killed deer with the Bear and 3 elk...

Thanks for the info. I had about given up on this Unit.

LVJ76 In answer to the 7mm08 powder loads I mentioned last week. I ran my test. I tried to put it here but only use 420 characters. You can email me at [email protected] and I will send the full info. Thanks, Alan

Weaselthis, what twist on your barrel?

Definitely feathers. I used to go the 5" feather years ago, but found the 4" was plenty to stabilize thy he arrow. I'm shooting 29" 35/55 Goldtip Trads with 125 gr Grizzly broadhead. With this setup feathers are a must. Bob Lee 47#recurve good for a cow elk and 5x6 bull. Buried shaft on both...

I'm in the process of testing several powders with 140 Nosler BT out of my Savage Model 11 with 22" barrel. The hunt with the 140 Accubonds. The NBT 140s are almost identical but cheaper so I'm using these for load testing. I just finished second round of 3 various powder charges on each powder...

Thanks for the info
