Up close at 26m the 45-70 can group like a .22lr and they're both prone to being pushed about by the wind out past 100m. But that's half the fun I reckon 246122 246123

Dont be afraid to load heavier projectiles and drop back the powder. You can easily push a powdercoated 300gn cast projectile to 2000ft/s but seriously.. zero reason to imo. I'm currently sitting...

Beauty of the little Model 7 in .223 is I watched it drop through the scope. Didn't think to see if I could recover any of the projectile but it was probably quite smashed after hitting vertebrae at...

Wee fella yesterday jumped up about 5m in front of me as I was heading back to truck after a really frustrating several hours of rubbish gusty and swirling wind. Went about 30m and stopped too long....

I've shot a few hinds over the last bit with the 80gr targex. 250-420m. Would say they're not as effective as the 80 ELDM at those ranges. Continue to be impressed with the ELDM. 245422245423

Curiosity got the better of me so I tried some 80gr ELD-M in the Howa. Pretty happy with the results, velocities should be around 2650-2700fps. Hope to validate and chronograph later in the week....

The lock on the ballistics reticle is a useful feature especially if shooting in flat terrain. Imagine ranging a rabbit at 100m, then placing the ballistic point on the rabbit. The rangefinder is now...
