    Sika 8 liked post by Hurricane On thread : Are hunters taking longer shots these days?
    Just look at YouTube. Too many missed shots, “I’ll give it a crack”, and lost animals. Good gear doesn’t obviate the need to practice far more than most do (myself included, if I’m honest). The...

    Rock river arms hunter liked post by Hurricane On thread : .308 178gr ELD-M for hunting
    I used them in my .30-06 in the US, mostly at close range. At .308 velocities they will be perfect from close to 600 and beyond. Don’t over think it.

    chainsaw liked post by Hurricane On thread : Brass shortages - options for serious wild cat conversions ?
    Good work Chainsaw. Even after neck trimming I expect you will get doughnuts, requiring inside neck reaming. I think you will also need to trim neck length every time as there is a lot of brass...

    Mine runs 2740 fps in a 22” barrel with a mild load of 2213sc, Lapua brass and 162 ELD-X. Cutting the barrel to 19” will have limited the speeds you can get, cos physics, but the new barrel should...

    208s go great in mine with 2217/H1000. First firing spaces off the belt, subsequent shots headspace off the shoulder like all others. I never found it an issue.

    Pengy liked post by Hurricane On thread : Leatham / Branch Valley Access
    Check the TDC river flow on the Branch River. If it’s over 12 cubic metres per second I don’t risk it. Best if it’s below that and dropping. My standard Hilux gets to Bottom Gordon’s Hut easily...
