[QUOTE="Robert Metcalf, post: 1325, member: 418"] [b]Re: This & That....A Layman\'s Long Range Rifle?[/b] Hello boys, I'm at home now and had to enter under Robert. Tom did you read that I was using 200 Nps at 3,000 fps on that hunt? how about you Darryl? I was sighted in at 300 yards dead on. As far a how far I was, I'm guessing at best. I put the top of the bottom post on the elk's back and touched off. Sorry you cant believe I can get 3,300 with a factory 26". You say you cant get that much powder in a 300 winnie case, well no duh. That's why I long throated it and seated the bullets out so I could put more of a slower 300 powder in. It seems to me Tom you were asking me for my loads so I gave them to you. Darryl, IF you don't want people telling how much they put in a case, then just say so. I 'll conform. I enterd this sight using my real name, in believing that A Man's name is only as good as the charachter he displays. If I need Charchter reference's why dont you call up Ken Howell. I've known Ken since 1978 and have had dinner with him a few time's in Prescott,Az You can also call or email my former Employer Greg and his father Jack Warne of Kimber of where I worked in the front office and did ballistic work for them. Frankly I could care less if it was 500, 600 or a 1000 yards away. That shot was a long ways away for me. I'm just telling it like it was. I'll be glad to send you a 300 load and you can pull the bullet and see how much powder is in it. So put up or shut up. I can tell it like it is as well. You can call me anytime you want during the week. 800-228-3420, goes right to my desk. Bob Metcalf [/QUOTE]
