    Hi mimms. PM sent. I hope you can respect the desire not to spoil this thread with this kind of argument, for the reasons stated.

    Puffin liked post by Flyblown On thread : 6mm cartridge comparison
    Fellas As you know I've always been a .243 kinda bloke. But the move towards higher BC, heavy and long for calibre bullets has got me interested in what else I can do with 6mm. I ran through...

    On last walk? Well, last mission out of the back garden more like. I don't have a photo so I guess it doesn't count. Magpie, 137m, .22LR CCI Standard Velocity (subs). On my rifle, that's 4.4 mils...

    I got onto Hornady to ask them about the absence of reloading data for this bullet. They told me to use the 87 grain V-Max data. The only thing I would caution about is the fact that in another...

    Cyclops liked post by Flyblown On thread : Interesting view on the 308 v new calibres
    Its a fair article. 308 won't go anywhere anytime ever. My bet is that it will remain in the top three selling rifles for years to come. I love mine, always have, always will. The ability to run...

    117463 Here it is at 2.710" in the COAL gauge. Looks like a satisfying amount of case capacity behind the 90gr ELD-X, I'm planning on 3150fps for this one. Maybe 3300fps if I get it Ackleyed.
