    I’m using 150NBTs in my 284. Bang flop. Nut behind the butt is more important IMO

    ebf I think you will find the custom die is not made from the chamber reamer. I make my own dies from what is called a resize reamer....some 0.004" smaller on critical dimensions. There is no way a...

    Go to cast bullets.. Rob Walker makes a very decent 6.5mm gas checked flat point good to between 1400-1800 fps in around 1:8 twist or slower. Perfectly good killer out to 100 plus a bit meters. Or...

    shooternz liked post by Dermastor On thread : New F Class setup and advice
    PRS can be real gear race but it doesn't need to be. Many shooters who compete start out with reasonably basic rifles and go from there if they continue to compete. If you want to start from scratch...

    Re reading this thread and I realise shooternz that I mis-understood which bullet you were referring to. Thought you were asking after the Lyman 429-244. Here is picture of the Hawke Targets ...

    What you don't have in velocity, it's better to make up for in bore size and weight. Unless you can reload specialist projectiles, get a big cal.

    Another Sub-X fail today. Shot a goat mid-neck at 5 metres. It went down, then got up and ran 50 metres. Huge blood trail, but I was lucky to find it in dense bush. Might as well take up bow hunting!

    Jit, the trigger on my 308 BA13 is the best (crisp) factory trigger I own. I can measure the pull weight of it if you want, but would not describe it as unduly heavy. Absolutely fine as is for a...

    shooternz liked post by superdiver On thread : Subsonic 7mm loads
    I thought with subs size was key as you cannot rely on shock. Having seen 308 and 300blks struggle on game I would personally stick with 35-40cal if I wanted gun to shoot subs.
