   Surely rifle for rifle 300 WSM are easier to get to shoot well ? And isn’t it 200 f/s faster ? Or are most WSM hunters chopping down to 20” ?

   I use 2209 with the 90gr eld-x. Lots of people rate the Sierra 85gr Gameking BTHP, it shoots well in my rifle but haven't used it on an animal. The Prohunter 100gr flatbase shot well too, and would...

   holdover. Not a good idea. Go 2208 or even better 2206H. If you want some 2208 I'll swap 500 gram for same quantity of 2209. My young fellah lives in AK so no drama. Your call.

    Talking of accuracy and the quest for an accurate calibre/rifle, most modern firearms can shoot better than the person holding them.

    I thought the 7x57 did - when me and my mates upgraded from the .303 we all got 7x57's. At that time I thought they were two only two calibres (apart from .22). Then one day my BSA couldn't hit a...

    Ryan, I used the 80gr TTSX in my .243 Win a good while back now. Very effective at closer ranges - drops good sized deer no problem - but it sheds velocity quite quickly and once past about 250m its...
