    Range Report Danger Space Info Needed

    Re: Danger Space Info Needed Thinking about using the new hornady 178gr bthp or nosler 200 gr accubond. I just finished loadind a batch of the accubonds so I'll find out soon how they do. I learned to shoot with a 45-70 silhoutte so I prefer the heavier slow bullets. Montanamarine always has...

    Range Report Danger Space Info Needed

    Re: Danger Space Info Needed What Im doing is using Bryans Max Effective Range to decide the distance for "ethical" hunting shot and have always thought the distance you can almost guarantee POI in a 12in circle then thats acceptable for deer or anything larger. That being said I determine...

    Im trying to get some more information on danger space for long range hunting. Danger space is the amount your range estimation can be off and the flatter a round shoots is the more danger space you have? Thanks

    Gunsmithing What barrel for .338 Edge?

    Re: What barrel for .338 Edge? I was looking at the action earlier and Im having second thoughts with the short action and may keep the .308 since I'm very happy with it and go to academy and get a $300 long action savage rifle to build on.

    Gunsmithing What barrel for .338 Edge?

    Re: What barrel for .338 Edge? I've seen that shilen and pac-nor have the drop in barrels but I believe those are 26 0r 28in length and can't get the 1:9.5 twist. I'm wanting the 1:9.5 twist like your suggesting and 30in barrel so I get velocity with less powder. I was hoping someone could...

    Gunsmithing What barrel for .338 Edge?

    I'm about to order a barrel for my first barrel swap for my savage 10FP. I decided on .338 Edge because I think thats a solid caliber for 600-800 yard big game hunting. I thought about a drop in Shilen barrel and adding a muzzle brake but looked at Lawtons website for info on their barrels and...

    .338 Edge Dies ???

    Re: .338 Edge Dies ??? The bushing is the issue I have. I've always used basic redding dies and I cut necks for uniformity and neck tension. In the past I've bought remington brass the necks are horrible so I bought Nosler brass which are more expensive but were great. Noslers didn't need...

    SOTECH Sniper Hybrid Hydration Harness part 2

    Re: SOTECH Sniper Hybrid Hydration Harness part 2 I love my sotech harness! I have the original version but I use it alot and it is very comfortable even with it loaded down. The shoulder padding is great even with 20 or 30lbs of gear strapped to it your shoulders won't know it. For holster...

    Range Report Temp. and Velocity Change

    Re: Temp. and Velocity Change I've got the trajectory down, I did load development earlier in the year for this and it was consitantly 70 degrees. I've always used Varget but it didn't work with this bullet in my rifle so this is the first time I've used RL15 and not aware of its temperature...

    Range Report Temp. and Velocity Change

    In a couple weeks I'm going to be hunting in West Texas and the temperatures will be colder than I am able to test velocities at home. I live in Houston and dont think I'll be able to test velocities below 50 before I go. Temperatures have been as low as the high teens this past week in west...
