   Out to 500m, a 40fps spread could mean max of 1.5" out = dead deer. Out to 800m, a 40fps spread could mean max of 4" out = wounded deer. Out to 1000m, a 40fps spread could mean max of 9" out =...

   Invitation wholeheartedly accepted Being what is considered "old school", I always test a load out to 400 and even as far out as 960 if I need to. So I know how the group is perfoming on paper which...

   Managed to bag a buck on Stewart Is. trip. The 168gn went straight through and would probably try a much lighter bullet next time. It was an unexpected 'long range' shot too at 350ish yards. ...

   It is a 22-250 1:12 twist Savage shortened to 21" and suppressed. I don't have access to a range so all my shooting is field shooting with a good rest but not a solid rest hence why I'm relatively...

   264WM or RM are good examples where the cartridge/calibre is largely fallen out of favour these days, and has been for some considerable time. Hence load data with modern powders and let alone the...
