  • 308 Family

    My favorite cartridge in the 308 family is the 243. I have 6 sub-moa loads with one rifle. 55gr Sierra BK’s, 70gr Varmageddon, 90gr eldx, and 100gr interlock, Sierra GK and partition. It seems anything that I feed it groups well and it’s a pleasure to shoot!

    Enjoyed the podcast as I have made my foray into Shooting and reloading. I also shoot the 6.5 creedmoor which was good for a 500 yard heart shot on an antelope with a 129 grain hunting performance SST bullet. Just under two mils hold and the BC calculators was spot on.

  • No support for fascists.

    Enjoyed the content until they decided to use the fascist’s tag line as a series title. No more Hornady for me I suppose. Glad they outed themselves before I bought anything more from them.

    So enjoyed the discussion on the .257 Bob. Nostalgia in a great way. I have my mother’s ol’ .257, Winchester. In her honored, I use it on antelope. Nice to be reacquainted with the history!
