    Looking for Binos 1500.00 price range

    Not to muddy up the other thread. I’m seeking the very best binoculars in the 1500.00 price range. But before we get into these at that price range is there a significant difference say in a 700.00 pair and a pair 2x the cost? Now onto the binos in price range I’m seeking providing there is a...

    Best Binos $500 or less (10x42)

    What’s your opinion on the genesis series over the XD? Is the price difference worth the upgrade?

    Range Report 300yd group question

    I'm in Shelbyville, and I do agree the scope probably was limiting you on your accuracy. As the saying is in group shooting aim small shoot small. So more magnifications and a smaller aiming point will also allow you to achieve smaller groups. Loading technique and rifle handling is another...

    Range Report 300yd group question

    As for your load work I always do 3 shot load development testing. Three the load five are the shooter. Some may agree and many will not agree. But it's worked for me for many years. Depending on what you're wanting to accomplish with your rifle that may work. My shooting platform though I have...

    Range Report Dope at the 500 range (300WM) vs. Strelok+ dopes

    From a 300 yard zero in showing my 300 WM loads using the 208 Amax to be 5.125 MOA to 500 yards my Mv is 2864 fps.

    20 shot test development.

    To be quiet honest I'd like to know what groups it holds say at 200 yards with the same testing? As mentioned 75 yards isn't worthy of saying this or that rifle held 20 shots in a 1" circle.

    178 Amax and 300 WM

    I need to go get some IMR powders I have H4350 and H4831 but nothing in IMR except 4064 for the 308 I'm gonna test the 178 in the 300 and 308 Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk Pro

    178 Amax and 300 WM

    I should made my first post more clear, my AI is chambered in a 308, originally the 178 amax was bought for that rifle but the stability factor looks to be marginal. So I figured I'd give them a try in my 300 WM and see how well they shoot from it. Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk Pro

    178 Amax and 300 WM

    Has anyone pushed the 178 Amax from there 300 win mags? If so what were your results I have 800 at home I bought for my AI but we it being a 12 twist I'm unsure the 308 will stabilize them.

    My 300 WM loads

    My 300 WM loads According to Hodgdon I'm running higher velocities for what they claim velocity should be with my loads. I'm not sure if I wanna try and push it much further like said I've been up to 78 grains of H-1000 and the groups were hovering around 1.5" and stiff bolt lift. My barrel...

    My 300 WM loads

    I've tried pushing bullets hard out of this gun and they just don't group as well as where I'm at with both loads. I'd rather have the accuracy and not be as hard on the brass as to try and push them hard. I'm not sure what another 150 fps will gain me at 1000 yards on drop but I can't imagine...

    My 300 WM loads

    Thanks for warning, I've been up to 78 grains on my H-1000 before I got pressure signs in the Bat action I have. Since the powder is a tad slower than the H-1000 I figured a good start point be 76.0 grains but I'll keepeye on pressures.

    My 300 WM loads

    I bought a lb of Retumbo to give a try in mine using the 230's so my next set of tests will be using that powder and working up from 76.0 grains.

    My 300 WM loads

    Labradar doppler chronograph

    This is second hand but I spoke with one of Barrets head guys last weekend and he was talking with the guys who builds these and said the FCC has not and probably will not approve the sale of them here in the states Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk Pro
