    Solid copper bullets

    Since I've had zero experience with solid copper bullets. I was wanting to know from the more seasoned reloaders if there is any place for them in long range shooting?

    Measuring 100 yards accurately?

    Sizing .308 Lapua down to 7mm-08. Neck Diameter?

    Rifle Scopes Leupold vs. Nightforce

    Where is all the .22 ammo??!!

    There might be some reason that our government is buying 22 ammo along with everything else. Maybe just because they can is all the reason they need,there cash cow always delivers.
