    .30-06 rules! I have been using the calibre since 1967 and have two rifles that I use, a Husqvarna with a Zeiss scope as my normal hunting rifle, and my custom-made long range rifle. A .30-06 with a...

    Haven’t used them in 7mm but have in .277. Fantastic bullets, very accurate and reliable expansion. Have never recovered one but exit wounds suggest good mushrooming. I would think you won’t be...

    Well I've just sorted out my dream vintage single shot 7x57R and it's everything and more than I could hope for So 7x57R is a very good choice in a K95

    There is nothing out of fashion about a skinny 130 grain 7mm bullet at 3100 fps. If we invented it today it would be a wonder hit. Marketing would call it the .277 Precision Annihilator. Delta...

    I'm hunting muzzle loader season in the states right now. A few days back I put a 50 cal projectile through the chest of a white tail buck at 9 meters. It broke the inside shoulder. Ripped through...

    Barnes130 liked post by T.T On thread : Blaser K95 alternative calibers
    The beauty of the 308 is the available ammo, efficiencies in a short barrel and subsonic loads. These goats fell to subs while I was crossing a valley to get to a stag. I let the stag live, possibly...

    My 6.5 x 55 is chopped to 19.5” which is as short as you can go for the suppressor clearance of the barrel band , I would like a 7 x 57r as a second barrel just to have a rimmed case , the suppressor...

    My K95 is a 6.5x65R I always fancied a short K95 barrel in 8x57R But a 308 would be much more sensible Then I'm not known for doing sensible

    Greetings, It is a headspace issue created by setting the shoulder back too far when full length resizing by having the die down hard on the shell holder. Will post further on this tomorrow. GPM.
