    Flyblown liked post by grandpamac On thread : .35 cal, why is it so rare here?
    Greetings All, I think one of the problems with the .35 calibre is that most US rifles have slow twist barrels. This does not allow the use of high BC projectiles and without them they do not beat...

    Not being a smart Ass but did you search .35 Whelen or .35 Whelan as I'm sure it is Whelen ? I have a 338/06 & 9.3X62, (and a few 30/06s) the 338/06 is great for ever where but suitable more for...

    Flyblown liked post by Wingman On thread : Real world ranges for 6.5 creedmoor
    Yes that day was an important lesson. I cant recall the ranges but from memory is was only 230m to 300m? Not a push by any means in regards to challenging shooting and the weather conditions were...

    Had a bit of a play doing some goat control during the middle of the day while on a private land trip during the week. Here's the first shot with both the 7mm SAUM and the 28 Nosler once they had...

    Flyblown liked post by Wingman On thread : Realistically how far can i push my 12.5 inch 308
    Yes I recall it well, I was spotting through a 21X scope and snapped a few pics off too. The first one stumbled for about 3 steps and then rolled down the hill a bit landing with the exit wound...

    This is my dog. Previously trained as a police dog and accompanies me everywhere. I use her mainly for tracking deer which in a woodland can be difficult to find even if they only run a few yards and...

    Flyblown liked post by longrange308 On thread : MN Triton EGR blanking plates mod.
    No different sensor for that, On a side note I’m sold on the catch cans, drained mine at 8000ks and I was shocked at what was in it It’s unbelievable that what it stopped would normally be pumped...

    Flyblown liked post by Moa Hunter On thread : A good calibre on pigs
    Pigs hate being shot and don't stand up to it. What this means is that most any centrefire 222 and up is ok. Don't shoot big boars if you can choose a smaller pig as they will likely be tough,...
