Tried them all over the years, starting with the 130gr Speer flat base that killed everything I hit with it - then went up the scale through the 139/140's which again killed everything, then the...

I have done a fair bit of shooting with both the 7mm 162 and the ELD-M in magnums The 162 ELD-M is a great pill, I intended to use them in my 7mm saum but by pure accident got a 0.3 moa load going...

If in doubt don't. I can remember as a kid in Te Anau a family friend tried to swim a river at the head of the lake using pack as flotation and he drowned. I was only 5 at the time but he left a...

Hit the hills the other day for a quick solo overnight fly camp mission before linking up with some mates the next morning. The weather was far too hot for my liking and reminded me why I go diving...

Really starting to like my 6.5PRC. It’s so easy to shoot it’s not funny. Two deer from two shots in the weekend, 380 and 440m respectively. Shot at a third which was a touch over 500m, but dialled in...

The trend and best use case for magnums is long heavy for caliber bullets. In 7mm this is 180's. This is right at the edge of magazine length for a S/A. Combine this with a very fat case to get...

I think the 6.5 PRC (like you have VC) is the better hunting option because it will be easier to shoot accurately in a hunting situation than the 7 PRC with those powerful loads. With the 6.5 it will...

Yeah man, it pretty much is just an optimised rem mag. Better sami coal, better sami twist rates, no belt. What's not to like
