    180eldm in 7mm rem mag load suggestions

    Has anyone tried RL26 with the 180 eldm in the 7 mag? Thought it might bump up the MV just a little more than Retumbo.

    .02 or .03 weight change ?

    Once I feel I have the load down pat, I'll try .1 on each side to verify. That .1 of a grain can tighten up a group dramatically.

    What scope power?

    Chas1, 90% of the time it stays on 22x which matches the moa reticle. It's a rare case that I use 32. Here in the Carolina lowcountry I shoot the bean fields and corn fields which is a late afternoon, early evening and crack of daylight shooting. Mirage doesn't play a part in the shot, so I...

    New Premier Heritage Video

    Looks nice. Where is it made and who's making the glass. I hope it is not a China product.

    What scope power?

    I've had a Nightforce 8-32x56 Benchrest -NP-R1 for 8 or 9 years now. Wouldn't trade it for anything!

    Custom Barrel Care at 17X By Jim See

    Enjoyed the article and yet there seems to be so many theories on break in. My sendero 7 mag is currently being re-barreled with a Hart, same caliber, but a 1in9 twist, 26" barrel. There website says there is no break-in since the barrel is hand lapped. I really want to be carefull with this...

    High Shoulder Hits, be ready to finish the job....

    Fiftydriver, I'm a flatlander hunting in South Carolina. I can't believe that if a wounded animal crosses a boundry line that you can't retrieve your animal. That's a crazy law. Do the game wardens enforce that law or the land owners? Didn't mean to change the topic. Nice buck by the way!!

    What about Sierra 65gr Game King for Coyotes

    Re: New to Coyote Hunting Which would be best? I have a bolt action Savage 243 or my AR-15. The ar shoots 69gr sierra's .25 or better. Not interested in the pelts either,just the kill. The savage shoots 95gr accu-tips about as tight as the ar but would give me a longer reach. Hunting in the...

    Bullet dilema for long range deer hunting.

    I use the 150 Ballistic Tip in my 7mag. So far so good. I've never had one walk away from it yet. Longest shot is just over 500yds and both deer dropped in their tracks. Killed 50 or 60 deer with the BT. I'm an southeast hunter and anything 200yds or closer is shot in the neck or head. Under no...

    Bolt is hard to close with new handloads

    If you are using a Rock Chukkar press, you have to set the Lee collect die different than any other press.

    How Far Is It?

    Looks like the brush guard on the front of the Tahoe hit him squarely in the shoulder at a very high rate of speed!!!!

    7mm mag Sendero reloads??

    You'll need to try H1000 to get you over the 3000fps hump. 71grs to 75grs max!! Hornady's reloading book will show that. I had a highly accurate load with imr7828 but it was only 2900fps and defeated the long range energy needed for the kill.
