   Tokoroa Cast Projectiles liked post by Dicko On thread : School me on the 7x57 mauser

   SPEARONZ liked post by Dicko On thread : Loading 162 ELDX vs ELDM ?

   I think it is a bullet by bullet proposition. I find the 145gn X in the .270W very explosive, core exits, shrapnel cuts through the lungs, heart from chest shots. Emphatic killers. The 178 Eldx...

   chainsaw liked post by Dicko On thread : Modern Packs

   Joe S. Looking at the size of that elk’s head relative to your back and assuming you’re not 5’6”, that is a big animal and great set of antlers. Having hauled out moose, I understand the weight...
