    Projectile Choice for Defensive Loads?

    Well..... maybe consider a lever action or better yet a M1 Garand. You can't fault the M1 and it is legal down there. Hits like a freight train. And almost every young man of every body type learned how to shoot it well. 30-06 reloading components are available.

    Those are all good but for barrier penetration then we can head back to solid copper and the Barnes bullets are very accurate and will get the job done. Just be sure any shot you take has nothing precious on the other side of the target as you would be surprised how easy it can be to get through...

    Projectile Choice for Defensive Loads?

    As a defensive load I assume you mean human or are we talking dangerous game. Seems to me those Barnes bullets while some of the finest hunting bullets made, have possibly too much penetration and will probably result in a pass through 6.5 cal hole with possibly no expansion. You may want just a...

    TrailBoss replacement

    So I have been talking to the engineers at Hornady to give additional choices to shoot their SubX 190 308 They included data for Benchmark and Titegroup These two choices are driving that bullet to roughly a thousand feet per minute. With trajectory at 100 yds at 8.8 inches drop but still total...
