    My high country rifle (.30/06 Husqvarna) is bare, just the scope and a wee bit of black tape on the muzzle.

    It could be the flat base. I don't reload but have tried loads of different flavour 30 06 cartridges in my M17 and the boat tails never worked well

    Morning bumblefoot Having shot both 150 & 165gr in the .308 for years, I can say with reasonable confidence... that it doesn’t really matter. Your decision should concentrate more on what type...

    Unless of course you have circumcised the most versatile caliber in the world and then in which case I would recommend the lighter tipped frangible projectiles.

    Have used 308 fairly extensively, less than 350y soft point cup and core projectiles like the interloc and game king in 150gr-180gr work very very well. In tipped frangible projectiles like the...

    Things have come a long way from a drop chart with a protractor and paper clip. As Andy said 500 yds you need to be on your game. Anything last that you need to know your shit to be ethnically...

    Just so you understand the figure Kelton mentioned was over 1000 yards which is where every thing I talked about applies. Even trying to hit the vitals in an animal at 500m you have to be on your...
