    Berger Bullets lot to lot

    Re: Berger Bullets lot to lot I have not measured my burger bullets but I bought 4000 rounds of the VLD that I shoot and havent had any consistency within the lot. But, I suspect that when I finish with this lot I will have to rebuild the load. I do the same bulk purchasing with primers...

    F T/R Competition Nifty feet on bipod

    Re: Nifty feet on bipod those things dont look remotely stable, if one side sticks more than the other it seems it would create a type of whip in the recoil to one side or the other.

    Hunting & Fishing Big Bang VS. Good shot?

    Re: Big Bang VS. Good shot? shot placement is alway #1 but i think a 223 is pushing it on a hog . in the brush i would be happy with a 30-30. But for all other hunting in north America a good 308 will do the Job. My friends Dad has hunted and killed several Elk with his 308 with no issues.
